Excellent stand-alone cabinz situated walking distance from restaurants, shops, beach & ferry jetty. Cabinz contained all you need with a lovely big verandah deck to relax on while admiring the view of the bay.. Definitely would stay again.

OK MOTEL.
We stayed over the easter weekend. The room was reasonable but nothing special and we considered it overpriced for the standard of accommodation.
Paihia is a pleasant seaside town with many tours and attractions,the best value is the ferry to Russell which is a lovely little town.

Terrible Experience !
Be Aware! I had to climb 49 stairs to reach my room!! No elevator!!!!
This was not clear from the property description.
Asked to change the room, but they would not do it!
Terrible experience!

Cabins are located close to town so just an easy walk to cafes and Paihia wharf for activities.
The cabin was clean, spacious and had everything I needed. I'd definitely stay again and highly recommend.

Friendly and helpful owner; comfortable stay
These are lovely self-contained cabins, run by the super hospitable and helpful Ali! They are VERY clean, which we appreciated, and although we didn't really use it, the kitchen was well stocked. I'd definitely stay again.

힐링하고 왔습니다!
휴일 이후에 가서 사람도 적어서 그런지 방도 업그레이드 해주시고 친절하고 너무 좋았어요!
가든 특성상 나무,식물들이 많아 개미들이 좀 있었지만 그래도 다른부분이 다 만족이여서 좋았어요!
다음에 또 가려고 합니다!

great days at Bay of Islands
great location, especially seaview cabins. Nice studio's, lux cabins with veranda. 5 minutes walk to town with nice restaurants and bars. Only minus was internet, which did not always function well (limited speed & reach).
