Very nice place to stay at. Very clean and close to beach.
Very friendly staff right through from restaurant to front office and front desk .
Made us feel welcomed
Clean and tidy, the reception was very kind and helpful with information about the area.
Location is good, walking distance to shops and the beach.
We stayed for 3 nights in this motel.
The bathroom and room is tidy, but in-terms of cleanliness should have more room of improvements, as we still found some dust on the bed and in the bathroom as well. But since it's a backpacker style hostel, couldn't be much picky bout the hostel itself.
Kitchen amenities is great, and I love the common area there.
Definitely a go to if you have budget concerns!
This hotel was amazing and we really enjoyed the location to everything aswell as the customer service right up to the manager as girls who have lived in auckland and experienced hotels there this place has immaculate care for their customers within their space we also enjoyed the body wash that smelt so beautiful we are going to get some of that also we are truly greatful thank you.
I stayed 4 nights at Centabay and overall it was ok- it is in a central location in Paihia close to the wharf. the structure needs more renovations but they do their best to keep it clean with the volunteers cleaning every day.

ผผู้เข้าพักSuch a beautiful location right on the waters edge. I stayed in one of the four standalone cabins. Each had their own covered outdoor seating area facing the water which was great when it was both sunny and raining. The cabin was clean and had all the equipment I needed. I was impressed that they provided washing up liquid, scrubbing brushes etc as often these sorts of things are not provided. There was no air con but fans were provided which helped and the bed was comfortable. The shower/kitchen block was close by with plenty of toilets and two showers. Both showers were hot and powerful, although one was so powerful it was painful! The other was much better. The kitchen /laundry area was well equipped although the oven was missing the shelves inside. Again it was all very clean.
ผผู้ใช้ไม่ระบุชื่อWe had a wonderful stay at Sunlit Bay Villas in Taipa. The space is great, very comfortable to stay in, and the location is excellen. The villas were spacious, clean, and very well equipped.
The internet connection is a bit weak, but if this is not a major issue for you, it does not affect the overall experience.
Overall, we highly recommend Sunlit Bay Villas to families and groups of friends, especially as a stop when travelling to Cape Reinga.
ผผู้เข้าพักAbsolutely fantastic place. The staff are amazing & so helpful. Food was spectacular, menu is small but that makes choosing so much easier.
Will definitely be back
ผผู้เข้าพักMake no mistake, this place is old. The shower plug was rusty and looked nasty. The carpet is dirty. I killed six daddy long legs lurking in the room.
But the service was fine, and the room was the right size if you want three beds (for the room we stayed in). The TV size and quality were also good. Oh, and they had a gym, which many other places didn't offer, though the machines looked like they were from the 70s.
Proceed with low expectations, but go for it if the price is right for your budget.
ผผู้ใช้ไม่ระบุชื่อA good place to break one's journey from Paihia via opinoni and waipoura forests back to Auckland. Dargaville is a small town with several Asian restaurants (recommend Suphan Thai in town) and a Woolworth's. This motel is located in the suburbs - a quiet and peaceful area away from traffic. Was surprised that the unit came with a kitchen (stove, fridge microwave oven) even though the room description only mentioned a LCD TV. WiFi was functional but slower than other places. Bedding was good. We couldn't find a hairdryer in the room.
MMyrkStyrStayed for 2 nights with wife and 8 year old son. The staff was super kind and welcoming. Our suite had amazing wraparound views of the bay. Parking spot was free and right next to our suite. WiFi was a bit spotty. Comfy bed. Walk to the beach was 10 min. Wonderful cafe in 2-3 min walk. The town was beautiful as well. Short drive north to the hot water beach was fun. I really liked this place. We made sure to clean up and do our dishes as note said extra fee if you left dirty dishes. Would highly recommend.
ผผู้เข้าพักA return trip to the Copthorne - I do like this place. The bathroom again needs an upgrade and the fridge is too small. All else was good which is why I keep returning. Have never eaten in the Hotel so cannot comment. Bar staff are scarce and usually distracted. But I keep coming back……..a beautiful location, close enough to the township but far enough away. I will be back - in fact have already booked for late April 😎👍🏻 Enjoy….
ผผู้เข้าพักBeautiful place with very sweet staff, however the water was non-potable. Yes, you read that right— not sure how that justifies $300/night or if that’s even legal. The porterhouse steak was unbelievably tough for the price so we passed on the $30 breakfast as we figured they probably didn’t learn how to cook overnight. Beautiful room and setting, although the giant soaking tub could not be used (the water again). Won’t return.
