Waiheke Island is located around a 40-minute ferry ride from the coast of Auckland, New Zealand. AROUND THE 12-MILE ISLAND ARE MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR MANSIONS, FIELDS OF VINEYARDS, AND SEAFOOD EVERYWHERE.
According to Vogue , Waiheke Island has developed a reputation as The Hamptons of New Zealand due to its opulent residences and affluent visitors including Bill Gates, Madonna, Justin Timberlake, and Beyonc.
After hearing about Waiheke’s wine, scenery, and celebrities, I decided to spend two nights there myself.
