Fantastic views of the countryside, bay and river. Look one way to see gorgeous sunset and turn around to see beautiful pink reflections on the other side. Everywhere smelt heavenly - a mix of jasmine & honeysuckle growing. Peaceful, relaxing, quiet. Pool was good. Friendly, helpful owners too. I would definitely go again. Very safe environment, you could leave doors & windows wide open, day & night.

Got a couple of mosquito/insect bites at dusk so had to come inside & close doors still got lovely views

The views over the Waitangi River Mouth were magnificent, the bed was very comfortable, the owner was very helpful and friendly and the location was very convenient.

The only thing that stopped it getting a higher score were the kitchen facilities. The small cooker was restrictive and there were very limited kitchen utensils. This meant that cooking was a challenge.

Fantastic location ; beautiful views , very quiet and secluded but close to Waitangi treaty grounds , restaurants, bars , shops etc Very well equipped kitchen . Very helpful host

The furnishings and fittings were very dated and mismatched

The view was amazing and the room was a decent size with clean facilities. There were incredible views from every window. It was very good value for money and we could bring our doggos.

Small issue with some ants but we sorted that. Decor was a little dated.

Shela and Norm are very welcoming and friendly owners. Stunning views over the river to Russell, Treaty Grounds and Bay of Islands. Good location for visiting the area. We really enjoyed our return visit. Allan and Jayne

Loved the view from Unit 3. We really appreciated the privacy and peace and quiet. That was exceptional. Great hosts. And grateful to have a kitchen and cooking facilities

Dated decor for the price. My daughter staying in a motel in Paihia. Modern and cheaper. Couch covered with a blanket because the surface is peeling off. My great granddaughter said it was old

The management very friendly. The pool was lovely and the rooms spacious

We didn't have breakfast offered and no milk left in refrigerator. Overall unit clean but came across some untouched spaces .

Loved the views Pool and trampoline Friendly staff

Shower temperature was hard to control Wifi in our room was weak and patchy Didn't realize we needed coins to operate washing machine

The staff were so lovely and friendly, the view from my room was outstanding and the room was very comfy. Loved the pool, had a fabulous morning beside it with my book. The location was great, close enough to town to enjoy the restaurants and bars, ferry to Russell and shops but far enough away from the maddening crowd. Very quiet.

The pool needs a bit of attention once the tourist market picks up. A lot of accommodation providers in Northland have been completely empty for the last year and they are just keeping their heads above water with nothing left to upgrade anything. We need to sympathise and support them if we want these business to survive for our long term enjoyment.

Great location. Amazing views of the bay. Easy access to. All facilities guests would expect and a warm swimming pool. Friendly, helpful hosts made our stay enjoyable.
