Excellent location of the property, right on the waterfront, beautiful view. The staff at reception were always friendly and helpful. Me and my wife stayed on the 4th Floor which was great for more privacy and less noise from the pool and road traffic. The room was clean and tidy. Absolutely loved the hot pools, but I must mention that they weren't as hot as I expected. The room's spa bath was amazing and could fit both of us, I'm 6'5 and my wife is 5'4, although not laying down, we both could sit in it comfortably.

Centabay was my favourite hostel that I stayed at in New Zealand!!! I loved the vibrant atmosphere, the lovely backpacker-staff and the wonderful manager who was always a joy to chat with. The prices are incredibly reasonable for a place in the middle of Paihia, and you can tell the manager isn't in it for the profit - she genuinely wants to help travellers have the best experience possible. The hot tub worked well and was always great to use. The hammocks and tropical garden are another bonus. I could go on and on!

We went to Paihia as this was close to the Marae we intended...
We went to Paihia as this was close to the Marae we intended to visit on this occasion. There were limited decent food options- however the glasshouse had exception food and service, was very impressed by this. No where else was good food, but almost everywhere was crazy overpriced for what they offered.
There was limited things to do, due to it being winter and bitterly cold. This was fine as we went with a purpose which was not sightseeing. But the ferry trip to russel was nice and we killed a few hours over there also

Great to take the hole in the rock boat trip.
Great to take the hole in the rock boat trip. Very convenient to catch the boat and hope over to Russell for a day trip. Lovely meal and walk at the wineyard in Russell. Lovely time to visit Pahia when it is sunny. Beautiful to spend 4 to 7 days chilling with the perfect sunset and sunrise. The indian restaurant along the beach at pahia is very authentic. Highly recommend pahia roadtrip.

Paihia is a very good place to stay if you want to explore...
Paihia is a very good place to stay if you want to explore Northland. If you are driving, you can go on your own to the tip of the North Island in about 3 hours. You can drive over to the Kauri Forest on the west side in about 1.5 hours. You can get tours out of Paihia for the Bay of Islands, the Ninety Mile Beach/Cape Reinga, Waitangi Treaty Grounds (you can walk there, about 3 km), rent kayaks or paddle boards, get fishing charters, take a ferry to Russell (or drive there). We spent 5 nights there and could have stayed a few more days and done even more.

Paihia is such a beautiful part of New Zealand!
Paihia is such a beautiful part of New Zealand! As the gateway to the Bay of Islands, there is so much to see and do here. There are some incredible restaurants to eat at and my husband highly recommends the Waitangi Golf Club just 5 minutes from Paihia. Definitely add the Bay of Islands to your list of places to visit in the North Island of NZ!

Motel was perfect and made our stay in the area
Loved the Treaty ground, so interesting
Got the car ferry to Russell and walked up to flagstaff hill
Beautiful beach on the other side of the hill
Really had a fabulous stay for a week. We were made welcome from the start. Anything we needed was supplied by just asking Winnie the owner of the motel. The room was spacious and very clean, everything we needed supplied in the kitchen area. Tea and coffee topped up daily and fresh milk in fridge. The hotel was perfectly situated a little walk from Paihia centre so very quiet and a beautiful walk along the seafront into town. We loved our stay and would definitely return if we had the opportunity. Didn’t want to leave.

This beautiful wood cabin overlooking the Bay of Islands exceeded my expectations. It was beautifully clean and well-appointed (with everything I needed) and in a few minutes walking distance of the shops and restaurants of Paihia. The best thing of all was the lovely wooden deck on the cabin, where I sat drinking wine and drinking in the exceptional views. Really a wonderful stay- and wish I could have stayed longer.
Bounty Motel is in a great location centrally located to the waterfront, shops and restaurants. No need to climb any steep hills. The motel was spotlessly clean. Basics such as tea, coffee, milk, salt/pepper were provided. There was a kettle, mini fridge and microwave in the room. Plates, mugs, cutlery was available, also towels and small toiletries. There was a mini kitchen but no stove. Reasonably priced rooms.
This motel is situated on the main strip of Paihia, was easily located. 10 mins walk to the Paihia Ferry harbour. Few minute's walk to the beach. Room was very comfortable and clean. Small kitchen facilities provided. Bathroom was clean and shower was a good size. Very happy with our stay. Friendly staff. Pool was nice as well. Water was a bit cold but since it was a hot day that didn't matter too much.
Room was lovelyband spacious.
Had all the amenities, even though we were on the main road you couldn't hear traffic unless you went out onto the deck.
Amazing view,
Receptionist an Manager were lovely an helpful, I've stayed in most Motel/ Hotels in Paihia an been a cleaner there with 20+ years experience.
I would definitely stay here again in the future,.
The view from all rooms and the Lania were spectacular! The rooms were clean and well cared for, and the location was within walking distance to shops and restaurants. There is a beautiful beach across the street to walk or swim! The historical areas are also nearby and an easy walk, too.
The motel is very clean , Perfect for family , The Manager Miss Winne was very helpful,
Parking was very convenient right outside the room- The area
is very convenient with just 5 mins walk to the beach and restaurants
Overall we loved our stay in paihia and in Averill
Great location in a hotel that has been extensively updated. The rooms were well appointed and the beds were very comfortable. We had booked for one night and ended up extending our stay an additional night. Highly recommend the Dolphin Motel
Enjoyed the spa in my room, was a cold night so the electric blanket came in handy. Short on time so didn't make it to the heated pool. Only a short walk to the shops and beach. Will definitely recommend to my friends and family.
customer service went way above and beyond. We arrived four hours early and were able to get the key and pop our bags in. We woke up to a beautiful view of the Bay of Islands. Minutes to walk into Paihia. It was perfect.
Loved the location right beside a grocery store and within walking distance of downtown Paihia and the Waitingi Treary Grounds. Pool looked lovely, but it was too cold for us to swim. :)
Location, spacious restaurant, near the beach and friendly staff … if only they will check the rooms cleanliness especially the beddings and linens, it will be a good Hotel.
