Two amazing hosts - these guys know the surroundings in detail and can help u with anything. The room, house, views and location are all very good. We got the best breakfast in our 4 weeks of travel, beating a cruiseship and posh hotels.

This was only our second stop in New Zealand and we weren't dissappointed. Nik & Rob run a tight ship on a very business-like footing. They were very efficient with recommendations for places to eat and things to do. (Great tip to visit Russell). Also very helpful in booking any trip requirements ahead of our arrival. The location is superb,... More

The hot tub on the balcony is the best place possible to unwind and... More

Baystay is a wonderful place to stay. We stayed here for 6 nights and a great time. It is close to Paihia. Nick and Rob are very hospitable and nice guys to talk to. Their help with excursions and places to eat are very good. The bereakfasts are lovely as well. The views from the B&B are gorgeous.

Rob and Nick run a superb B&B and are very helpful hosts without intruding. Rooms and breakfast are first class. Everything is clean andfreshly prepared. Nothing was too much trouble. No hesitation in recomending or staying again. Geoff & Marie

Loved the communal area and the decking out the front with gorgeous views, perfect to relax with a glass of wine in the evening. Breakfasts were fab and our hosts couldn't do enough to make us feel... More

When we arrived at the baystay, the smell of freshly baked chrstmasbread "stollen" was welcoming us. Our room was perfect and had direct access to the deck and was nicely decorated. After having refreshed ourselves Nick was offering coffee, tea, water .... and discussed with us the plans for the next day. We booked via him our trip with the... More
