Waikanae Wanderings: Hendrix Home

Just a short wander from Waikanae Beach, you’ll find Hendrix Home, a long-time local favourite for beautifully curated pieces that bring warmth, style and a little bit of holiday feeling into everyday life.

From furniture and slow-made homewares to timeless clothing, thoughtful gifts, books, body care and pieces for the little ones, Hendrix is the kind of store that invites you to slow down and browse. Every corner feels considered, with objects chosen not just to fill a home, but to make it feel more beautiful, personal and lived in.

And now there’s even more reason to visit.

Hendrix has recently added a gorgeous in-store café, serving top-tier espresso and sweet treats while you wander through the store. It’s a lovely little addition: part coffee stop, part retail escape, part reminder that some of Waikanae’s best moments are found in the places where people have put real care into what they create.

Whether you’re looking for a gift, a piece for your home, something special for your wardrobe, or simply a good coffee and a quiet browse, Hendrix is well worth rediscovering.

If you haven’t visited in a while, consider this your sign. Hendrix just keeps getting better.
