Excellent location - heart of Oneroa. Walking distance to cafes & restaurants, boutique shops, book store, local amenities (chemist, four square ) & beautiful Oneroa beach.
Studio very clean & fresh with a large spacious bathroom. Comfortable bed with crisp linen sheets. Liked the white/natural interior design. Extra touches such as freshly ground coffee (in mini fridge) & beach towels appreciated. Enjoyed our complimentary breakfast too.
Staff very efficient & friendly. Such a lovely stay - thank you team. We’ll definitely be back! 😊 Bex
We liked the light and beach feel of the room. We liked the daily service of the room and the fruit and chocolates, Good to be able to stay in the middle of town and the breakfast arrangement was great. Overall we will be back.
Charming older building with just three rooms. Private and quiet but centrally located near restaurants and shops, and the beach. The Oyster Inn’s own restaurant is excellent!
Great stay bit confused on where to check in, no parking spaces, but parking was close by.
Beautiful room, clean, bed comfortable. Dined at restaurant, really enjoyed our meal ..thank you would recommend so convenient too, loved our stay.
the staff at the oyster inn were lovely, steffi was amazing, nothing was too much trouble for her, it was our anniversary when we stayed, and she made it memorable, also the food was fantastic, we will be back.
The breakfast was very unusual but so good.
They were able to add and remove some of the ingredients I didn’t like.
The room was super big, clean, good shower, very comfortable bed and cosy comforters to keep us warm.
The food menu at the restaurant was delicious and very interesting.
The staff was super friendly and efficient.
10/10 definitely going back
This property although small was best part of my trip to Auckland/Waiheke island. Hotel staff, food and beverages were great. Short walk to beach and 15-20 mins to wineries! I’ll be back in June!

Very well located and breakfast excellent. Rooms starting to look tired and didn't feel like they were cleaned properly. I don’t think our bedsheets were changed during the 5 nights we stayed which is what you expect for $500 a night.
We had a wonderful stay at The Oyster inn, from the very start when we were met by the wonderful Stefi at the reception desk till we left the day after. The room was nice and clean, quiet at night (I slept like a baby for 7 hours...) and with a nice bathroom.
Waiheke itself was as nice as we had hoped. Beautiful surroundings, a lovely beach (we took a morning swim, a bit chilly at around 15 Celcius...), easy to take the local bus to the wineries at Onetangi Rd.
Wish we had stayed one more day...
We visited the Stonyridge, Te Motu, Tantalus, Man O'War and Mudbrick wineries.
Very quaint place, cozy room, warm staff, loved everything about it. As the restaurant at premise is now closing on T&W they offered me breakfast at the next door restaurant. And, it was delicious.
The Aesop products in the bathroom made me gasp for a hot minute!
