We stayed for two nights in the Ti-Tree room of this wonderful B&B. The helpful and welcoming hosts Nic and Rob have a wonderful house set on a hillside overlooking a small river. They even invited us for barbeque they were having with friends the night we arrived but unfortunately we were to tired to join still suffering from jet... more

Have just spent 5 nights at Baystay and we were very sorry to leave. Wonderful hosts, and a beautiful house with contemporary designer feel. The view from the deck was magical, overlooking the valley and river. A great location tucked out of the way but only 5 mins drive from Paihia (and nice to be able to escape all the... more

Best place we stayed at in New Zealand by far. We would recommend this place to everyone. The accomodation was better than 5 star. Spotlessly clean, great breakfasts and friendly hosts and 2 cats. Hope to return soon. more

The furnishings were modern and nice. Pleasant views over the countryside from the deck. Rob and Nick were helpful and... more

There is a gourmet coffee machine in the kitchen which makes individual cups of coffee to have at will. The view from the balcony is... more

Niek and Rob were so welcoming, friendly, helpful whilst being totally professional hosts. As we were the only guests, it being very early in the season, they upgraded us to their best room which was lovely. They gave us lots of information and helpful tips on how to spend our time there and an excellent breakfast, cooked by Niek, to... more

The rooms were spotless and ultra modern, with fresh linen and the most softest towels. Breakfast was superb including the freshly squeezed orange juice. more
