We loved Waiheke Island and Iluka B&B was a great place to stay. Kathy and John are such great hosts and it was obvious that they would do almost anything to make our stay pleasant. We had fruit waiting for us and a card expressing wishes for our birthday celebration. The breakfasts were absolutely wonderful! Kathy even shared a recipe.... More

Thankyou for your review on Iluka.In regard to the mosquito problem I have mosquito repellents in the rooms which you plug into a switch and are very effective.I also have an insect spray and a natural pyrethium spray.In new Zealand we tend not to have screens on our windows More

Kathy and John are wonderful. Their personal attention was over the top. Breakfasts were large and extremely tasty. We felt at home in their home, and were given the privacy we needed. More

We stayed at Iluka from Dec 30, 2011 for three nights. We were jet lagged from our travel from Canada and were so happy when we arrived at Iluka for our stay. The space was fantastic. Sitting room, extra bedroom, comfy room for us and private bathroom. We had champagne waiting for us, cupboard with tea, coffee, cookies. TV with... More

I found the rooms to be quite well-supplied with tea, coffee, ironing board, soap, towels etc. The bed was quite comfortable. However, the rooms are basically nicely-decorated spare rooms in the owners' (Kathy and John) house (they appear to use the cupboards for storage) which changed the feel of it. The rooms are quite comfortable though. The patio overlooks a... More

We have just spent a lovely few days at the Iluka B&B on Waiheke Island. The hosts, Kathy and John, could not be more welcoming or accommodating. The rooms were comfortable and quiet; perfect for recovering from a flight from the UK. Kathy has a great attention for detail and the rooms contained pretty much everything we needed. The rooms...

We had a wonderful two night getaway staying at Iluka. Kathy and John were perfect hosts. Lovely room and lounge, great bed and cooked breakfast. Two coves to walk to. Hire the car through Kathy and get a great welcome at the Car rental. We cruised the island checking out the wineries, beautiful houses and beaches. Listen to Kathys advice... More

We stayed two nights and took the deal with the car and kayak. Great value. We had a private balcony, roomy place, tea, bikkies and hosts who really cared and gave great tips for dinner places. Would love to return. More

We've spent two nights here and everything was great. Friendly hosts, great location (the coastal walk close by is well worth it), cozy beds and a great breakfast - Kathy & John run a lovely place. We'll be back !!! More

Kathy and John made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. Delightful home made breakfast. We did a package thorough Sealink Ferries which included the continental breakfast only. We are glad as we would have had no room for a cooked breakfast after home made museli, home made bread, home made fruit salad with all the extra condiments.... More
