Phone: +64 3 789 6339 (Please do not call this number for bookings; see below for booking contact number)

Guests can only make local calls from this number but can be contacted while staying at The Waves Studio. Cellphone coverage is unreliable on the West Coast but does depend on the individual network. We do have a broadband connection through the landline and so you can receive a free wireless connection through your laptop, notebook or smartphone. More information about this will be sent when booking the accommodation. Our check in/out times are flexible (unless we have back to back bookings) and we are happy for guests to leave by midday unless we have guests arriving that day.

For accommodation bookings, please contact us by email on the enquiry form provided and give us your phone contact too. Or alternatively phone or text me on +64(0)274 540 796 and leave your details.

(We don't live on site and are unable usually to take bookings less than 3 days ahead but it is always worth checking with us)
