From
PolandThe surroundings are well kept and the rooms are very clean and cozy. We travelled as a couple with one adult child and the accommodation upstairs suited us perfectly. The hosts were very welcoming and caring. We got all the recommendations for the day in the area. Forest Waters are convenient for everything you want to do in the Bay of Islands. Also the food served at breakfast was excellent, everything home made, from the garden/farm or from the farmer’s market. Delphine and Guillaume went far and beyond. Merci, Delphine and the family!

I paid a bit more than I usually do for a room and I’m glad I did. The room was spacious, clean, had all the facilities we needed…and it was a great view of the water and some good people watching. The location was great, a short walk to everything and not far from Waitangi. The lady who greeted me at reception was lovely and helpful. Would stay here again.

Incredible location and super friendly staff. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Balcony/Terrace with a really nice view of the waterfall and lake. Kayaks were available free of charge and staff at reception gave wonderful tips for local sightseeing. Showers also had the highest water pressure I had yet to experience - very comfortable!

Paihia is a lovely little town.
Paihia is a lovely little town. The shopping area and restaurants are great. We especially enjoyed Charlotte's Kitchen and Zane Grey's, both on the wharf. The Woolworth's is a well stocked grocery store for such a small town.
Russell is a gorgeous little town just a short ferry ride across the bay. Be sure you check out the Seaside (one of the best meals of our trip and great staff!) We also enjoyed our drinks on the deck of the Duke of Marlborough.
The tour to Hole in the Rock was well worth it. The scenery was beautiful and the history was really interesting.

Kerikeri is an important historical area, particularly The Stone Store and Kemp House. One should take time to learn about the impacts, both negative and positive, of European colonization, and experience the richness and sophistication of the Maori culture.

Do yourself a favour and stay for a few days at this wonderful place. There are so many walks, and lots of beautiful spots to explore. It would be a shame to limit yourself to the main street.
The museum and the French Printery are certainly worth a visit, as is getting up to the top of Flagstaff Hill and having a coffee from the van on Long Beach.
The 4 Square shop is well stocked and reasonably priced if you are self catering.

This was a lovely place to stay.
This was a lovely place to stay. We were warmly welcomed by our hosts and everything we needed was provided. It was a real treat to stay here.
We visited the Treaty Grounds, just down the road for a cultural and historical education. We hiked to waterfalls and mangrove forests. We caught the car ferry and visited Russell on the coast.

Off main road.
Off main road. A very pretty sleepy hollow historic beach town. Easy strolling around, even a wee climb to flagpole or overwster dining. Comfy 25 mins to WAITANGI bridge. Variety of shops with treasures everywhere.

Kerikeri is an attractive small town with lots of lovely trees and gardens especially beautiful at this time of year.
There are a number of cafe’s and restaurants in Kerikeri some of which we visited definitely recommend Black Cat for breakfast and Thai for dinner.
Lots of place to go walking and sight seeing.

I have been to Russell a couple of times before but only as day visits so to be honest Ive only stayed in the little township itself but loved that.
This time I stayed a night to attend a function.
The motel was the icing on the cake because where you stay can make or break a stay anywhere. The view of the harbour below with boats anchored..you couldn't beat. I want to come back..and my friend and I intend to. It's handiness was great.
Great afternoon of shopping..something for everyone & delightful 'The Grazing table' cafe for home cooked sweets with delicious coffee. Would have liked to spend more time in the fabulous looking book store..great looking coffee table books on display but I ran out of time. There is something for everyone here.
Russell town can easily be walked around in a short time without stopping..but who wants to do that. It's a lovely, interesting quaint place with a lovely harbour looking over to Paihia where you go to connect to main highway..eventually. A day passenger ferry runs regularly from Paihia & to.
There are other areas to visit over the hill and the car ferry over from Opua is very quick and efficient.
And least but not forgotten..the fantastic Duke of Marlborough hotel and accomodation with its elegance gracing the shoreline is a highlight. I had a lovely evening supportng the Recuse Helicopters fundraising event..it was spent under gorgeous chandelier lighting with all the simple but lovely table settings. Surely a grand gentleman which began in 1827 as 'Johnny Johnsons Grog Shop' by an ex convict come good!

Relaxed and friendly with lots to do.
Relaxed and friendly with lots to do. The Treaty grounds are so interesting and the admission price gives you access for two visits, it's a lot to do in a single day. There's also a free huttle bus from teh centreof town.
Ferry across to Russell is a must. Lots of good places to eat across a orice range. Small supermarket in town but a bigger well stocked one just outside.

Your in a perfect spot where you can embrace nature and enjoy a beautiful spa and a cold swim with so much peace. It was perfect for our family that come from the busy and loud city of Auckland where peace is so hard to find. This place hit the spot.

A beautiful serene village. You need to be prepared to walk & explore the area. Lovely places to eat & drink - our most favourite is Hones Kitchen. Getting out on the water in a boat is an added bonus
