Your Private Roberton Island Retreat

"Eagles on Motuarohia" is perched on the highest point on Roberton Islands’ western front. Perfectly positioned and utterly private there is so much to be discovered and is the ideal retreat to create a lifetime of memories with family and friends.

It is rare to have a private, exclusive, coastal property of this nature to be offered for sale in the Bay of Islands. Eagles with it’s incomparable 360 degree, birds eye view of the picturesque Bay of Islands is one of 6 privately held properties on Roberton Island and provides countless opportunities for adventures on land and sea.

The crystal clear waters of Cook’s Cove provides safe swimming and snorkelling, even a chance swim with the dolphins that visit the front bay. Fill your day kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing off the rocks or exploring the Ponga Valley and island lagoons. At Eagles you can do everything or just relax taking in the expansive views with a favorite book or glass of wine.

Roberton Island has been pest free for over 18 years – no stoats, rats, possums and other pests. The bird life has flourished and been enhanced with the introduction of birds like the Whitehead which had been extinct in the north for 100 years. The bird songs of Kiwi and at least 29 other species greet you daily from your porch and as you explore the many walks through nature on the island. Native trees are planted every year to provide food for the birds and to revive the natural fauna. Giant Wetapunga which have existed for 60 million years thrive in the valleys. The rare and endangered Tuatara is planned for release as well.

Eagle’s owners have worked with and hosted DOC, Project Island Song, the Massey University Kiwi conservation management and students, the Auckland Zoo and other conservation programs for biodiversity on the island. Hundreds of native trees have been planted to enhance Eagles surrounding forest. An island caretaker resides onsite to care for the common areas and is available for individual owner needs.

Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, calm clear water, sub-tropical temperatures and a renewal of your spirit awaits you in this nature’s haven on Roberton Island. Welcome this unique opportunity to embrace coastal lifestyle living at it finest! Motu-a-rohia ... Island-of-calm waters!

The motivated vendor is prepared to hand over the baton for the next custodian of this island gem. Asking price is circa $10 million and viewing is strictly by appointment only.
