About the host
Hosted by Jane Stearns
We have had the privilege of calling Aotearoa New Zealand our home for over 20 years. Originally from the UK we love meeting international travelers and ensuring they have the best possible time during their stay in Paihia.
Why they chose this property
No matter what photo we take - we cannot do justice to the stunning view across the water to Russell as many who stay with us attest to. The Bay of Islands is very laid back - life moves at a slower pace here and there is a community feeling and friendliness that we love.
What makes this property unique
We have a truly beachfront unit with no road, no property, between us and the beach. A small footpath leads onto the beach with safe swimming. Relaxing on the daybed and watching the yachts and boats go by as well as occasional dolphins is a true joy.
