Welcome to Enclosure Bay

When we say 'a room with a view' we mean it!

Here on the beautiful, northern coastline of Waiheke Island, between Little Oneroa and Palm Beach, Enclosure Bay is a modern, luxury, architecturally designed, small hotel - with views too vast to capture. We have two luxury one bedroom suites and a King bedded hotel styled room – all with private decks, air conditioning and facilities you would expect.

Located just a 35 minute, ferry ride from downtown Auckland, (a few minutes longer on the car ferry), Waiheke Island is a tranquil, beautiful jewel in Auckland’s Hauraki Gulf. A five minute drive from the ferry terminal at Matiatia will bring you to Enclosure Bay.

Waiheke is renowned for its beautiful beaches and scenery, its vineyards, olive groves and native reserves with great walking tracks. The island is justly proud of its many excellent restaurants and cafes.

The luxury accommodation at Enclosure Bay is the ideal haven, where for a while, you can exchange the ‘every day’, for something special. Perfect for a honeymoon or anniversary celebration; luxury stay on Waiheke Island,  weekend breaks or just some timely R & R.

Take time out to relax in the spa pool, hidden away from the main building on its own deck surrounded by tropical planting .Take in the beauty of the surroundings whilst sipping a chilled glass of Waiheke Island wine watching the sun set over the Hauraki Gulf. If you are very lucky, you may even see dolphin or orca from your suite 

We enjoy a wonderful setting, capturing the sun all day and providing panoramic views of the Hauraki Gulf and its islands. Uninterrupted views out as far as Great Barrier Island and Coromandel Peninsula to the east, Rakino Island, Little Barrier Island  and  the Noises to the north and the setting sun behind Rangitoto to the west. Your privacy and opportunity to take it easy, refresh and restore, are our priorities. (Check out the panoramic view in our gallery)
