Wonderful stay

This is a really beautiful property which is well located for all the activities around Paihia. Whilst being close to town it is situated in a quiet location with beautiful views. Our host Alisha has spent a lot of time ensuring the property is just right for her guests, and that you have everything you could want to make your stay enjoyable. If we are ever back in the Bay of Islands I would head straight back to this property.

Alisha was warm and welcoming, even extending an invite to our family as they waited for their accommodation to be cleaned. Alisha's place has an exceptional view, is very comfortable , pristine, with a well equipped kitchen, great entertainment system, easy access to local attractions and restaurants. Alisha made us feel at home with espresso coffee, milk, delicious chocolate, apples, and a lovely personal gift. Thank you Alisha. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Family visit

Lovely! Our family of five (3 teens included) enjoyed a comfortable and scenic stay! Alisha welcomed us upon arriving and was a delight to meet. The property was easy to access and just a trail walk to the local beach. A lovely place to land while holidaying!

The Paihia Lighthouse is a fantastic property with amazing views and responsive hosts. Alisha is happy to help with any problem. It is at the top of a steep hill and has a steep driveway - this is not an issue (everything is sealed bitumen) but our mini-van had to be manoeuvred carefully. The BBQ deck is great for cooking dinner on a sunny day. We would definitely stay here again.
