Loved the Motel and our room. The incredible panoramic view from both rooms was wonderful. Great little self contained kitchenette which we loved. Sky Satelite TV a big bonus. Easy & safe car parking. Across the road from the Ferry wharfs and main shops area very close.

What a surprise. These awesome apartments are situated in the caravan, mobile home park in Paihia. There are only 5 apartments, 4 of which have elevated views. They are very spacious and have everything that you need; kitchenette, separate bath and shower, bbq, TV, sound dock etc etc. There is also laundry facilities near the main office. We stayed in apartment 3 - it was very quiet, only the relaxing sound of birds in the morning. The apartments blend into the beautiful gardens seamlessly. This...

The staff were very obliging, moving us to a groundfloor room when they realised I had a dodgy knee. Pauline and the staff in the restaurant and bar were knowledgable about tourist things to do and when my husband brought fish back from a fishing trip, the Chef cooked it to perfection. Excellent Wifi connectionenabled me to stay in touch with the family back in Australia. I would stay there again if I am fortunate enough to return to Paihia. I loved the extra touch of a gift bag encouraging us...

I was pleasantly surprised to find the photos online accurately reflected the actual state of this apartment. We had the two bedroom with a balcony offering a gorgeous view of the Bay. Cosily warm with a really well provisioned kitchen and comfy beds. Definitely recommended.
