Holiday houses in Hauai Bay

Modern spacious bach with contemporary styling and comfortable furniture. Well equipped kitchen and lovely big dining table for eating and games playing. Two outdoor areas for eating/sitting at different times of the day as well and a pretty garden. Situated in a gated park with lovely planting and walkways towards the beach. We enjoyed the table tennis table in the garage and use of the communal tennis court. Adjacent to very pleasant walks through the bush to Whale Bay and around the headland back to Matapouri Bay. The walk to the beach is a good 7-10 minutes but it's a flat and quiet route. None of these properties are fenced so maybe wouldn't be a great choice with a toddler but for us with older children, it was perfect for our family weekend away.

Wendy's place was lovely! Clean, comfortable and well stocked. Communication was great, check in instructions very clear and easy to follow. The view was amazing!! A great central location to explore the Bay of Islands. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again :)

We booked this for a getaway with our family and extended family, and it was perfect for what we wanted. The view was absolutely stunning and the location 5 mins from the township and close driving to many of the beautiful beaches. The space was even more beautiful than the photos, and it was well equipped with everything we needed (including a pool table and Xbox for the teens). Sharon and Philip were wonderful hosts and even messaged to check in on us after there was a big storm one night. They were welcoming and responsive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The only problem was, we didn’t want to leave this magical spot. Thank you Philip and Sharon, highly recommended 😊😊

Paihia is an excellent place to stay with lots to do. The property is within walking distance of all attractions, activities and restaurants, the car stayed in the garage our whole stay. The property was perfect, nice views, well equipped and very clean and tidy. We enjoyed our stay

We had an amazing stay! Penelope and Malcolm made us feel welcome from the start, and the space was spotless and cozy. We especially loved the views from our room! The location was perfect—peaceful yet close to everything we wanted to explore. We highly recommend this place, and we can’t wait to come back. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

To say that the view is impressive is an understatement. The moment you open the front door, the view over the Bay is what makes this an incredible spot to stay. The bean bags, sofas, daybed (my particular favourite for a read) picnic benches on the deck or just reclining in bed, all afford you this fabulous view. It changed every half hour or so, as you're at the centre of a natural amphitheatre you do hear all sorts of sounds from the Tui's, Bellbirds, Kiwis and cicadas, it's constant and glorious. And yes you can hear as cars go by from the ferry, but to even mention that is churlish. As we sat soaking in the view one night the sound of an anchor chain going down was quite distinct and then the puttering of an engine on a boat over half a kilometre away confirmed all was well with the world. It's just a lovely base for popping to Russell and the ferry over to Opua is regular and opens up the rest of the Bay of Islands to you.

Lovely little cabin with a private beach. Just a few mins walk from the cabin and you'll reach the beach, perfect for swimming and body boarding. The location is perfect as well - close to Whale Bay and Matapouri Bay.

Felt like a 5 star resort. Everything you may need and more, including a kayak and binoculars. Even monogrammed bathrobes. All the utensils and equipment that you may want to cook. (Snacks and breakfast items too.). Quiet. Peaceful. Stunning view. Adelle was very friendly, helpful and available for any questions. We’d love to return.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful property! The stunning views and serene atmosphere provided the perfect backdrop for our family to spend quality time together over the Christmas period. We enjoyed plenty of fishing, and the amenities for kayaking and paddle boarding were fantastic. Our dog had a blast too, making friends with Fur. The host was wonderful, checking in to ensure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was a truly memorable experience. Highly recommend!
