Jacob
United Kingdom
Centabay was my favourite hostel that I stayed at in New Zealand!!! I loved the vibrant atmosphere, the lovely backpacker-staff and the wonderful manager who was always a joy to chat with. The prices are incredibly reasonable for a place in the middle of Paihia, and you can tell the manager isn't in it for the profit - she genuinely wants to help travellers have the best experience possible. The hot tub worked well and was always great to use. The hammocks and tropical garden are another bonus. I could go on and on!

Paihia is a lovely little town that appreciates the towns surroundings beachfront along the main road with the many restaurants and cafes that provide beautiful created food for any occasion. I highly recommend to come and visit Paihia yourself.🥰🥰🥰GraceNew Zealand - 10Scored 10
Great to take the hole in the rock boat trip.
Great to take the hole in the rock boat trip. Very convenient to catch the boat and hope over to Russell for a day trip. Lovely meal and walk at the wineyard in Russell. Lovely time to visit Pahia when it is sunny. Beautiful to spend 4 to 7 days chilling with the perfect sunset and sunrise. The indian restaurant along the beach at pahia is very authentic. Highly recommend pahia roadtrip.

Paihia is a very good place to stay if you want to explore...
Paihia is a very good place to stay if you want to explore Northland. If you are driving, you can go on your own to the tip of the North Island in about 3 hours. You can drive over to the Kauri Forest on the west side in about 1.5 hours. You can get tours out of Paihia for the Bay of Islands, the Ninety Mile Beach/Cape Reinga, Waitangi Treaty Grounds (you can walk there, about 3 km), rent kayaks or paddle boards, get fishing charters, take a ferry to Russell (or drive there). We spent 5 nights there and could have stayed a few more days and done even more.PaulUnited States of America - 10Scored 10
Paihia is such a beautiful part of New Zealand!
Paihia is such a beautiful part of New Zealand! As the gateway to the Bay of Islands, there is so much to see and do here. There are some incredible restaurants to eat at and my husband highly recommends the Waitangi Golf Club just 5 minutes from Paihia. Definitely add the Bay of Islands to your list of places to visit in the North Island of NZ!

Slightly out of town which we prefer
Slightly out of town which we prefer Motel was perfect and made our stay in the area Loved the Treaty ground, so interesting Got the car ferry to Russell and walked up to flagstaff hill Beautiful beach on the other side of the hillLynetteUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Great town with friendly locals.
Great town with friendly locals. All hospitality options covered, with a bar on a jetty that is very pleasant but always seemed short staffed. Easy walking town and a jetty to Russell with happy staff to greet you. Visited Pompallier House in Russell which is well worth the visit and again met with lovely friendly greeting and service.

- 9.2Scored 9.2WonderfulRated wonderful· 268 reviewsThe place was so clean. The views from our extra large balcony were absolutely spectacular. The place was roomy and very comfortable. The hosts Theo and Sopha were extra friendly and helpful, going so far as to drive us into town a couple of times. They were so accommodating in every way without being intrusive. It was a short walk to town that you could walk along the beach unless it was high tide, when you must go around on the main road. It was a steep vigorous climb either way, but we appreciated the exercise.ColleenUnited States of America
- 9.1Scored 9.1WonderfulRated wonderful· 162 reviewsThere is a free breakfast brought to your room each morning, and different each day. There is a main item, (omelet, bagel w/salmon) and a nice fruit plate. The location is about a ten minute walk from the main part of town and right across the road from the Paihia to Opua trail start. This end of the trail is only available at low tide. If the tide is up, walk over the hill on the sidewalk until the beach is there. Cross over a bridge and into the bush on the left to finish this great walk.
EricUnited States of America - 8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 647 reviewsThis is the best hostel I've stayed at in New Zealand so far!!! The location was amazing. It is right in the centre of Paihia, surrounded by restaurants and shops. The lounge was my favourite. It overlooked the sea and was well decorated. It is a cosy place to unwind at the end of the day. The whole place was also exceptionally clean. Plus, when I visited, the all-female staff were super lovely and made a female solo traveller like me feel very comfortable indeed.

- From $81.10 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 2,450 reviewsThe bed was probably the comfiest I've ever slept on in a hotel and the staff were super friendly and accommodating. It's across the bridge from the main 'centre' of Paihia, so it's either a couple of minutes drive or a half an hour flat walk. Pool area is lovely, with shade umbrellas and loungers dotted around for free, but a bit small and cramped once you get a few families in there.JessNew Zealand
- From $116.74 per night8.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 59 reviewsFabulous accommodation here at Paihia Central Apartments. Everything you need for a comfortable few nights. Hosts are very lovely and helpful, views over the Bay of Islands are fab. We weren’t so lucky with the weather (North Island’s stormy 2023 summer) but enjoyed our stay regardless. Would recommend keeping your luggage light, as there are plenty of steep steps up to the house.MichaelUnited Kingdom
- From $86.02 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 1,023 reviewsTidy and a good sized room. Comfortable beds. Great shower pressure. Nice pool for kids to enjoy, has a shallow section which is great for the little ones. Has a restaurant on site, unfortunately didn’t get to try it out during our stay. Our family loved this hotel, we enjoyed our stay and didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!
