Family holiday

Disappointingly, this expensive property did not live up to our expectations.Pluses were: location, generous help from the neighbour, when the property manager was out of townNegatives were: driveway (very difficult access), non-functioning internet (without the neighbour we would have not had Wifi access), no broom to sweep the floors, a BBQ that had not been cleaned for a long time and was very difficult to start.Overall, I rate this property as marginally good, when our expectation was excellent given the cost.

Paihia Paradise

This property managed to accomodate a large group of adults with a mix of couples and singles. The location was great and the property did mostly deliver. I think a bit more thought to the number of towels provided for a week of stay plus a more well equipped kitchen could have warranted a gold star rating.

Spacious, lovely bush setting

A great base for exploring the Bay of Islands. Comfy beds and plenty of space. Enjoyed the outdoor deck overlooking the bay. Convenient walk to restaurants and wharf. Property manager was helpful & we appreciated being able to check in slightly earlier. The property was generally well equipped and clean but we thought there were some areas which needed maintenance/cleaning. The Property manager was very receptive to feedback however. Overall would highly recommend this as we had a fabulous stay.

Tranquil & central location

The house was presented in immaculate condition and worked very well for a mix of ages and activities. The view and bush-setting is divine. Thoroughly recommend for a getaway whilst still close walking distance to all activities Paihia has to offer.

Absolutely beautiful!

We had an absolute fabulous time! Group of 9 ladies from all around NZ catching up for the 25th year somewhere we haven't stayed together. The house was perfect. Beds were split to singles and everything was spotlessly clean. View was gorgeous from house and spa. With a short walk thru native track down to the waterfront to cafes, restaurant & liquor store. Thank you very much.

Above and beyond

We spent a great family holiday in early January. The house is large and comfortable and architecturally placed in a native bush hill top position to maximize Pacific ocean views. There is a short walking distance through a well marked easy bush track to the sheltered beach, shops and restaurants. I was especially impressed with the owner, Mike, who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable.

About the host

Hosted by Mike1978

Host profile image
We are a kiwi family that love the outdoors, nature and time on the water.
Our property is a reflection of this, and we love to see our guests enjoying the same.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because of its unique geographic position, views and surrounding native forest reserve.
We then Built a purpose designed house to take advantage of the natural surroundings creating a private secluded feel and at the same time maximise our holiday accomodation experience.

What makes this property unique

This is a very unique property it feels secluded, like you are living in a forest overlooking the sea. But you are geographically in the very hart of the town and only minutes walk from everything paihia has to offer.
