Boathouse-The Bridge

A place well worth staying and definitely enjoyable when the owners are staying there as well Positive: The actual owners of the property were staying in the downstairs apartment and they were absolutely lovely. Negative: The housekeeping standard was not as good as it could have been. We found leftover hair balls on the carpet in the lounge/living area. The tv remote seemed to need new batteries.

Very relaxing and very livable Positive: Very unique accomodation in a great location.

Overall great stay Positive: Nice venue close to where we needed to be Negative: Car ferry a little noisy

It was a beautiful apartment and we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. Positive: We loved the entire apartment. The balcony was great to sit on and admire the view! We enjoyed watching the ferry traffic. It was a nice place to base ourselves to explore the area. Negative: As mentioned in previous reviews, the ferry was a little loud early in the morning in one of the bedrooms but we knew that going into renting this place so it didn't bother us.

Beautiful view. Well equipped. Positive: Great location by water. 10 minute drive to Paihia. Comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen. Negative: It is RIGHT next to the ferry that leaves every 10 minutes the whole day. We got used to it but just know that it’s not as serene and private as it would seem from the pictures and description.
