It was really clean, within walking distance to the wharf, beach, shops, restaurants, and supermarkets. You also can take sitting on the balcony, the view from there was great. Although it doesn't have modern facilities, however, its cleanness, quietness and convenience impressed us deeply. The host and business owner John is enthusiastic and hospitable, if you have any questions, just ask him!

Breakwater Motel is exceptional. The staff were friendly and helpful and it was the little things they did that impressed. For example, they provided a coffee plunger with small bag of ground coffee instead of the usual coffee dust you get in hotels/motels.

This motel is well located, close to the water, shops and restaurants. The owners offer recommendations for activities (some can be arranged at the front desk) and restaurants, as well as membership discounts at the Swordfish Club. The room is quiet, spacious and the bed is comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. I loved the balcony, overlooking the water and the hillside, it is a great place for morning coffee and an evening beverage. There is parking on site included with the room.

Bay Sands was perfectly situated away from the main crowded area of Paihia yet close enough to walk to access all the activities offered at the wharf. It was also walking distance to Waitangi treaty grounds and the Hararu water falls. The beach area across the hotel was perfect to enjoy a quiet swim and a picnic in privacy. The unit was neat and comfortable with all appliances I could possibly need. The ?owner Jimmy was very pleasant and helpful.

    Reception staff were nice and accommodating. I was glad to see Paul on checkout as he is retiring and has been a real asset to this motel, wish him well. The bed was huge, shared with a friend, so still room to move around and was so comfortable with nice linen

    Ala Moana is a great motel, just a short stroll to the town centre. The room itself was very spacious, clean, comfortable, and the kitchenette had everything you needed if you were eating in. The bathroom was a good size. John was a lovely host and very helpful. Would definitely recommend staying at Ala Moana if visiting Paihia.
