Situated in Paihia in the Northland region, Paihia Place Cottage - central Paihia has a patio. The air-conditioned accommodation is less than 1 km from Te Ti Bay Beach, and guests can benefit from on-site private parking and complimentary WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 11 km from Opua Forest. Clean and tidy Cottage, everything I would need inside, easy to get around in. Location close to town and places I wanted to go to while here. Quiet and private location. Excellent, welcoming hosts, be available if needed and allow my privacy. Wonderful stay, would highly recommend it to family and friends...

Overlooking the Bay of Islands and Te Haumi Beach, The Retreat Bay of Islands Paihia offers free Wi-Fi. The basic self-contained holiday accommodation boasts a private balcony and sea views.

Just 2 km from the centre of Paihia, The Retreat Bay of Islands is a 3-hour drive from Auckland. Haruru Falls is a 12-minute drive away and Waitangi Treaty Grounds are only 7 minutes’ drive away. The view was beautiful and our host was outstanding!!!! We arrived ahead of the cyclone and when we told our host we had a flight to catch in Auckland she suggested we leave a couple days early to ensure we arrived on time. Although it was a HUGE disappointment to leave this beautiful place early we appreciated her wisdom.
