IndiaOur cottage was surrounded by lush green and they had great facilities. The spa was top notch and they even had fresh water pool. Brad was a super helpful host and was very accommodating to our requests. He made sure we had everything to make it a memorable stay. Overall a solid guy. It had a nice patio, really good shower, star link internet, a smart TV, great kitchen and super clean linens. I highly recommend Avalon resort.

AustraliaAmong all the houses/ apartments we stayed at during our 12-day trip to the north of NZ, this was the best. It was a very cosy, beautiful, very clean family house. It had a beautiful, peaceful view to outside. The host family was very friendly and helpful.

A Perfect Stay in Haruru Falls 💫
! 💯 Michael, you're an incredible host and a big reason we keep coming back. Your attention to detail, especially in customer service, is unmatched and comes so naturally. Your knowledge of the local area is a real bonus. Truly a person-before-process experience. We'll be back again and again! 💫

We loved our stay in Paihia Dilphin Motel. The motel is within walking distance of the center of the town, but in a quiet area. The apartment was clean and tidy, the kitchen is well equipped. The bathroom had a toweldryer, which was a plus. A lot of birds live in the area, it was nice to wake up to birdsong in the morning.

So much to do, highlights are a boat trip around the Bay of Islands with a good chance of spotting dolphins. Don't miss a trip to the Treaty Grounds, although expensive as they receive no government funding, it is an interesting, thought provoking and enjoyable day out. We were there for 5 hours until it closed, wished we got their earlier. Your ticket does cover 2 days so go and learn how modern New Zealand came in to being plus the guided tour and cultural experience are excellent.

Kerikeri is an attractive small town with lots of lovely trees and gardens especially beautiful at this time of year.
There are a number of cafe’s and restaurants in Kerikeri some of which we visited definitely recommend Black Cat for breakfast and Thai for dinner.
Lots of place to go walking and sight seeing.

Do yourself a favour and stay for a few days at this wonderful place. There are so many walks, and lots of beautiful spots to explore. It would be a shame to limit yourself to the main street.
The museum and the French Printery are certainly worth a visit, as is getting up to the top of Flagstaff Hill and having a coffee from the van on Long Beach.
The 4 Square shop is well stocked and reasonably priced if you are self catering.

This was a lovely place to stay.
This was a lovely place to stay. We were warmly welcomed by our hosts and everything we needed was provided. It was a real treat to stay here.
We visited the Treaty Grounds, just down the road for a cultural and historical education. We hiked to waterfalls and mangrove forests. We caught the car ferry and visited Russell on the coast.

Paihia is a lovely little town.
Paihia is a lovely little town. The shopping area and restaurants are great. We especially enjoyed Charlotte's Kitchen and Zane Grey's, both on the wharf. The Woolworth's is a well stocked grocery store for such a small town.
Russell is a gorgeous little town just a short ferry ride across the bay. Be sure you check out the Seaside (one of the best meals of our trip and great staff!) We also enjoyed our drinks on the deck of the Duke of Marlborough.
The tour to Hole in the Rock was well worth it. The scenery was beautiful and the history was really interesting.

Your in a perfect spot where you can embrace nature and enjoy a beautiful spa and a cold swim with so much peace. It was perfect for our family that come from the busy and loud city of Auckland where peace is so hard to find. This place hit the spot.

I have been to Russell a couple of times before but only as day visits so to be honest Ive only stayed in the little township itself but loved that.
This time I stayed a night to attend a function.
The motel was the icing on the cake because where you stay can make or break a stay anywhere. The view of the harbour below with boats anchored..you couldn't beat. I want to come back..and my friend and I intend to. It's handiness was great.
Great afternoon of shopping..something for everyone & delightful 'The Grazing table' cafe for home cooked sweets with delicious coffee. Would have liked to spend more time in the fabulous looking book store..great looking coffee table books on display but I ran out of time. There is something for everyone here.
Russell town can easily be walked around in a short time without stopping..but who wants to do that. It's a lovely, interesting quaint place with a lovely harbour looking over to Paihia where you go to connect to main highway..eventually. A day passenger ferry runs regularly from Paihia & to.
There are other areas to visit over the hill and the car ferry over from Opua is very quick and efficient.
And least but not forgotten..the fantastic Duke of Marlborough hotel and accomodation with its elegance gracing the shoreline is a highlight. I had a lovely evening supportng the Recuse Helicopters fundraising event..it was spent under gorgeous chandelier lighting with all the simple but lovely table settings. Surely a grand gentleman which began in 1827 as 'Johnny Johnsons Grog Shop' by an ex convict come good!

Off main road.
Off main road. A very pretty sleepy hollow historic beach town. Easy strolling around, even a wee climb to flagpole or overwster dining. Comfy 25 mins to WAITANGI bridge. Variety of shops with treasures everywhere.

This last minute get away was one of our best short trips yet. We stayed at the Avalon Resort, which is one of my favourite places we have ever stayed. I could have stayed for much longer. It just has the best vibe. down to the amazing host, Location and the rooms are just beautiful, (all have your own private decks) check in simple & easy. Makes you feel at home. We also enjoyed the Horse Trek at the DriftWood Seaside Escapes the next morning, about 40 minutes from the town centre. Milli is just amazing catered to my 2 young children and made us all feel so comfortable. the location of the Trek is just an amazing bonus. also the friendly dogs who come along for the Trek. The views are breath taking and Milli and her team are just the best! Our little stay in KeriKeri has to be the best short trips we have taken for a long time. we can't wait to come back. if your looking for a affordable Resort Bali vibe stay with your children or some alone time this is absolutely the place to stay. If you want to do something a little different check out Driftwood Seaside escapes and go see Milli for an exciting Horse Trek Through the Forest, down to the beach and through beautiful bush.

A beautiful serene village. You need to be prepared to walk & explore the area. Lovely places to eat & drink - our most favourite is Hones Kitchen. Getting out on the water in a boat is an added bonus
