Set amongst native trees on the golden sands of Sullivans Beach, just around the corner from Paihia centre, Bay of Islands Beachhouse offers luxurious apartments overlooking the beach and the islands.

Each apartment has its own patio and terrace with barbecue facilities and beautiful gardens. All apartments are individually decorated and come with fully equipped kitchens or a kitchenette, flat-screen TV and a CD/DVD player.

Our stay at The Bay of Island Beachhouses in the All View Suite was everything we hoped for. The accommodation was very upmarket & the views were amazing. The pod coffee machine & the Weber barbecue were nice touches. I also appreciated being able to do a load of washing in the machine provided. Being able to access our apartment via our own elevator was a novel experience. Wish we could have stayed longer.

    Outstanding property and every detail had been thought through so carefully. The deck and view were out of this world, providing superb options for sitting and dining outside. The property made everything of the view available and was exactly as described. Marg and Rhys were fabulous hosts, making us feel very welcome and had great suggestions for the local area. Simply stunning property.

    The property was clean and warm with plenty of space for a family of four. To be honest, this is the cleanest place we've ever stayed in New Zealand. We enjoyed the breakfast (rye bread, eggs, cereals, yogurt, etc.). Kerry and Phil gave us some useful tips that helped us explore the area. We really appreciated it.
