Took my parents who are visiting NZ for the first time and this accommodation was a highlight in a great weekend. Will absolutely be coming again! ##### Alastair M. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark L. 2 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We loved staying in Opua. It is quieter, low-key area, but 7 minutes away, by car, from Paihia. The windows and views are incredible! There is a little fish and chips shop that is really good a couple steps away. One thing of note: The ferry starts ramping up at 5:30 am, and shuts down at 10 p.m. While it is totally entertaining during the day, our friends staying in the second bedroom would hear it, as well as get a spotlight in the window. That said, the place was so good, it still gets a 10 rating! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0a0cc6b7-0b3e-4f29-8f82-28c87ad3bfdb-1762112773060.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5c643d50-c89a-4cd5-8912-d458894cf905-1762112772663.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Mark L.
