The property is very central in Paihia and everything is so assessable by foot. The unit is self contained, very clean, comfortable and spacious. The hosts are very friendly and provided us with lots of very useful tourist information like best places to eat and places of interest. Loved our time here and definitely recommend to others.

It was a fantastic stay at the property. From the start, the customer service was great as Elaine was such a pleasure and always willing to help. When we talked in the room, it was nice and clean. The location is awesome; everything you'd need in Paihia is a walkable distance.
