Loved the location. Very quiet with a beautiful view of the bay. Stacey greeted us and was friendly and helpful. Bed was comfy and the room spacious. Everything was perfect. Very close to town, but would probably need a car as it’s quite a steep road up to the apartment. But the view from the room and deck was worth it. Highly recommend.

Good location with a great view of the bay. Property is cheaply furnished but serviceable. Check-in was great. Walk to town and beach. Noisy at night due to clubs on beach.

Stunning view, comfy furnishings, clean and friendly owner. My favourite spot in the house was a oversized chair by the window- perfect for soaking in the view and reading a book. We will definitely be back if we stay in paihia again
