On Waiheke Island, hidden within the lush landscapes of New Zealand, lies an exclusive boutique retreat that redefines the concept of luxury escape. Omana Villas, a project by the renowned brand Angelo Cappellini, brings together sustainable architecture, refined design, and breathtaking natural surroundings.
Perched on a secluded hillside overlooking Woodside Bay, this award-winning complex consists of four luxury villas, complemented by a private beach and five-star-level service. Omana Villas represents a new generation of eco-luxury, where sustainability and sophistication do not compete—but enhance one another.
At the heart of the project is Villa Surrender, the most prestigious residence within the complex. Its interiors were designed by Sarsfield Brooke Ltd., while the full furnishing was executed by Angelo Cappellini. The result is a space defined by the unmistakable signature of Italian design, rooted in craftsmanship and timeless elegance.
The villa’s interior features carefully curated furniture inspired by the Louis XVI style. The bedroom is anchored by a king-size bed with a grey velvet upholstered headboard, while bedside tables and a writing desk from the Mozart collection are finished in patinated white lacquer with a grey base. The space is further enriched with white lacquer armchairs upholstered in grey fabric, as well as silver-leaf chairs framing a bespoke breakfast table.
The palette of colors and materials is designed to mirror the surrounding environment—light tones, soft textures, and sea-inspired hues create an atmosphere of calm and effortless sophistication. Clean lines of classical design, combined with a contemporary approach to materials, result in a space that feels both elegant and deeply relaxing.
Villa Surrender functions as a true sanctuary—a place where luxury does not impose itself, but naturally blends into the landscape. The fusion of Italian craftsmanship and New Zealand’s natural aesthetic gives the space a unique identity, where tradition and modernity meet in a subtle yet powerful way.
Today, Omana Villas stands as a benchmark for modern luxury destinations, where design is not merely decorative, but an essential part of the guest experience. In such an environment, every detail serves a purpose—to create a space that is not only seen, but remembered.
