The cottage was spectacular!!
We don’t want to over recommend the property because we want to come back! It’s already difficult to get! We had a splendid time - visited Paihia, Kerikeri, Waitangi, Russell, Long Beach, boat tour of the Bay of Islands (out to the hole in the rock). Amazing! Wished we could stay longer. Didn’t want to leave!

Really enjoyed staying at this very peaceful bach and watching the sun rise over the marina. Great walk around the coast to Paihia and taking the ferry across to Russell. Note, there is no spa (as shown on listing in bookabach).

Excellent property, clean+ well equipped. Perfectly situated for bay of islands as we like to be just a little out of Paihia. Lovely shore walks+ swim spots. Stunning views. Have to access 2nd bedroom through bathroom. When we were there the dishwasher was not working + there were wasp nests under the adirondacks on the front deck. But this did not detract from a lovely couple of nights there

Great place to stay. Mindful of very steep drive and path up to house but superb view when there. Second bathroom is downstairs accessed outside. House is well stocked with all you need. Car ferry just down road. Cruising club for dinner is good. Would stay again

Lovely Property with Amazing Views
The property was great, Katrina has everything you need for a wonderful stay, very comfortable. The location is very handy in Opua to the car ferry to Russell, local boat club (nice meals), fish & chip shop & great local store (best coffees). Fishing off the wharf was great, a couple of nice snapper were caught. The view from the cottage is amazing & so lovely to sit on the deck any time of the day for a meal or a drink. We loved it.

This home away from home had everything you could imagine. Perfect location for us that was quiet and close to walking track, supplies and eating establishments. The view was fantastic. This is the best house we have ever stayed in.

A beautiful location!
This was a perfect location for our short stay in The Bay of Islands. The view from the house was spectacular and always something to watch as the boats and ferry went past. Very peaceful and tranquil. The house was tastefully decorated with a superb and well equipped kitchen. We would certainly recommend this to anyone looking for accomodation in the beautiful Bay of Islands.

This property is soaked in sun most of the day and has incredible elevated views of the Opua Harbour. It is very modern inside with a large kitchen which is well supplied. The beds are really comfy in both rooms. The house is perfectly located for the Russell ferry, Marina, local supermarket/cafe with Allpress coffee and a fish and chip shop (all 3 mins walk) This home exceeded our expectations. We could easily park 2 cars in the driveway (which is steep) and there is more parking at the bottom if you're not comfortable with the driveway. Great stay - highly recommend.
