Guest Reviews
- Huang (10/5): I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. I will definitely choose Bays of Islands Gateway Motel - I had such a wonderful stay here and everything truly exceeded my expectations. The accommodation had absolutely everything we needed, and you can really feel how thoughtful and well-prepared everything is.
The place was very clean, which made our stay even more comfortable. Julie and Martin were incredibly kind and welcoming, and they gave us so much helpful advice for our trip, which we really appreciated.
- Annie (10/5): Warm hospitality at its best! - Everything, especially our warm welcome from the hostess. It was exactly what we needed to make the most of our stay at such a special place. Nothing
- mary (9/5): Comfortable accomodation - Very roomy suite with nice kitchenette. Serviced every day! Owners were extremely helpful with local advice and which island trip to book. We were comfortably holed up for 24 hours during tropical storm so no complaints!! Personally found the bed too soft but that is just a preference.
- Rachelle (10/5): - Great Location within walking distance of town The owner/managers were very helpful & informative.
It looked like it had been recently refurbished
Very comfortable & roomy Nothing. Highly Recommend it.
- joy and rob (10/5): TERRIFIC PLACE TO STAY! - The management was the most incredible that we have ever had the pleasure to work with. Julie is so personable, helpful and a pleasure to deal with at all times. The room, kitchen, bedroom, beds, bathroom were all suited with complete attention to detail...there is absolutely nothing else to think of that would have improved our stay. Julie assisted us with planning activities, booking, making perfect recommendations and we could have stayed at their place for weeks with total satisfaction. The apartment was close to downtown and we walked several times a day along the beach both to downtown and to the Waitangi treaty grounds. If I could rate our stay with 20 stars, I would definitely have done so!! We can't wait to return some time in the near future...look no further than the gateway motel and apartments...you won't regret it, that I can assure you!!
- Sandrine (9/5): Très bien - Chambre très propre et très bien située non loin du centre, et près d'un supermarché. Lit confortable.
Hôte très accueillante, je recommande.
- Shelley (8/5): -
- Georg (9/5): Gute Unterkunft für einige Tage - Das Hotel liegt am Eingang zum langestreckten Dorf - fußläufig sind Restaurants und Fähre gut erreichbar. Die Terrasse im EG ist eher sehr klein Die Terrasse könnte etwas gepflegter sein.
- Sonia (9/5): -
- Charles (10/5): Relaxing, quiet, beautiful beach - Lovely place. Very clean. Easy walk to town, beach, and grocery store. Julie and Martin were great hosts. Very friendly and helpful. Would come here for sure if we can ever get enough cash to visit New Zealand again!
- Lisa (10/5): - Everything spotlessly clean,great staff and fantastic communication, bed was very comfortable , well equipped kitchen and the BBQ was an added bonus, close to supermarket
- C (10/5): Very enjoyable. - Very clean, spacious, comfortable, great location and Julie was a very welcoming host, she saved us money on a cruise and provided lots of great information of where to go. Would definitely stay again. Nothing.

Facilities very clean and anything needed was there for you.
Highly recommended! Could not fault anything.
- andre (10/5): -
- Skells Whanau (9/5): Comfy home away from home - We liked how clean it was. It felt like a relaxing home away from home. The giant TV. That they actually separate rubbish and recycling and do their part to shrink their ecological footprint. Hosts were super kind and generous. Being able to use the BBQ. Crisp, clean sheets. The bowls were not deep enough and made it difficult to put porridge in it.
- Pauline (10/5): - Perfect stayover and very helpful when we needed an earlier check in
- Darren (10/5): - Great location walking distance to shops and town centre. Very clean and comfortable. super freindly and helpfull managers, made some of our bookings for us with locals discounts.
- Ian (9/5): Fabulous Stay at Gateway - Julie and Martin were great communicators and v helpful aiding booking of trips and advising on local eateries. The room exceeded our expectations. Location great. Had a fabulous 4 night stay. There was nothing we didnt like
- Catherine (10/5): - Words cannot describe the warmth and helpfulness that was extended to me, beautiful unit, peaceful yet so close to beach and town thankyou so much I'll be back to stay most definitely 😊!! N/A

- Shubo (10/5): -
- Robert (10/5): A great place to stay - What a great place to stay. The hosts were friendly and efficient and they provided maps and suggestions for activities and restaurants. The apartment was spacious and comfortable. It was situated between the Paihia wharf and the Waitangi Treaty Grounds, so it was easy to get around. There was even a supermarket across the road which we used when we first arrived. The bed was comfortable and we slept very well each night. Many thanks to Julie and Martin. Nothing to dislike.
- SueZan (9/5): it was a wonderful stay - N/A N/A
- Andrea (7/5): Comfortable - It was comfortable. The managers were very nice. The location was not on the waterfront which was disappointing. It was extremely expensive for what it was and there was no blinds on the some of the windows in the bedrooms so it was very light early in the morning.
- Leonie (10/5): - Julie and Martin were great hosts. Friendly and knowledgeable. Unit was neat, tidy and clean. Very comfortable and spacious. Lovely deck and outdoor area. We had a lovely time. Thank you.
- Craig (10/5): Highly recommended. Definitely be back - Location was excellent. Close to the beach and although the roads around the apartments were busy little noise from inside the room when door was closed Bed was a bit soft and water pressure from the shower average. Other then this excellent, highly recommended.

- Robin (10/5): - Very clean place, comfy bed, very clean bug bathroom, kitchen .. close to the beach. Could it be any better? ❤️
- Darren (10/5): -
- Katie (9/5): Quiet, clean, and comfortably situated. - Very friendly communicative host. Location is close to the beach and just up the road from a grocery, plus petrol. Plenty of room, helpful little kitchenette space, and clean property. Night 1 I learned an ant-y lesson about leaving takeaway leftovers on the counter nearest the door and window. No issue after that though!
- Mark (10/5): We enjoyed our stay at this motel, and if we are back up in the Bay of Islands we would definitely stay there again. - The property was easy to find, clean and very tidy. Close to amenities, a 10-15 minute stroll to the town centre. Absolutely nothing. Couldn’t fault the room, location or service.
- Joseph (10/5): Just fine, would stay there again. -
- Frank (10/5): -
- NICOLE (9/5): -

- Houston (8/5): -
- David (8/5): -
- gabrielle & Tony (9/5): We really enjoyed our stay and felt so comfortable as the hosts were close by ready to help with anything! - Julie the host, was so welcoming and more than happy to answer our questions about the area. Giving us recommendations for places to go and eat.
The accommodation was very close to the beach and a great walking distance to central Paihia, also just across the road from a supermarket. The only complaint was the shower was too good, so hard to get out!!
- Robert (10/5): - Excellent facilities.
- Rong (10/5): -
- Gavin (9/5): - Friendly & welcoming host Nil

- Kathryn (10/5): Very comfortable welcoming place, highly recommended - Great location within easy walking distance of both Paihai and The Waitangi Treaty Grounds.

- Priscila_delvalle (10/5): Exceptional - We stayed for one night and were very happy with our choice. The motel was very quiet, which allowed us to get a restful night's sleep. The room was clean and well-maintained, and the bed was very comfortable. It was a great option for a peaceful and comfortable stay.
- Joe (8/5): Very good -

- Paul (10/5): Loved it and would happily stay there again, recommend to everyone. - Easy to find and stay, great quiet and comfortable place, Julie the Manager was very friendly and super helpful with local knowledge.
- Kim (9/5): A comfortable stay in Paihia. - A well-equipped motel unit, spacious and with plenty of storage facilities. The owner was very helpful and able to book tours as well as advise about various destinations. The motel is close to the Waitangi Treaty Grounds and is also a comfortable walk from town (Paihia). Additionally, there is a Woolworths supermarket just down the road, which is convenient.. There are a few steps from the bedroom to the bathroom which we had to keep in mind during a nighttime visit to the loo in the dark. The motel is close to the main highway, but we noticed that the traffic noise dropped quite quickly at night so wasn't a problem re sleeping.
- Anders (5/5): Not so welcoming. Don’ - Central location, and had what you need for a couple of days. We didn’t realize when we booked that this motel doesn’t welcome families with small kids or babies. If we knew, we would never have gone. Our mistake 😞.
- David (10/5): Amazing manager and will stay again. Don't confuse with Bay of Islands Holiday Apartments- terrible! -
- Alec (10/5): Exceptional - The hosts were very kind and helpful with great recommendations.
The unit was very comfortable and had all we needed as a family with young children.
It was in a great location very near to the beach and also to the Waitangi grounds but still secluded and peaceful.
- Robin (10/5): Lovely stay. Julie very friendly and helpful -
- Duncan (8/5): Good value for money. Great location. Easy access helpful staff. - Super central location. Helpful staff and comfy beds.
- Linda (10/5): Very comfortable for a short or long stay. - Lovely spacious family room. Well appointed with a well eqipped kitchenette. Bathroom spacious. All very clean and well maintained. Hosts friendly and helpful. Supermarket just up the road a little. Quiet.. on a oad, but a quiet one at night.. Very good soundproofing and excellent aur conditioner. Very happy with our stay.
- Susan (10/5): Great Motel in a good location - Location is a little out of town but only about a short walk away. It is in a sunny spot, but there is some road noise as it's near a junction although most of the time this isn't an issue.
It's about a 5 min or less walk to the beach and about a 15 min walk/short drive to the Treaty Grounds or similar in opposite direction to town.
Owners were very friendly and knowledgeable about places to visit in the area.
Very spacious room
Great shower
Loads of kitchen equipment if needed Beds are a bit soft for us but personal choice
Didn't find the sofa comfortable - again a personal choice
- Shearna (10/5): Paihia - Staff so friendly and helpful.

- Jernus (10/5): Exceptional - I’ve had such a great time here over the past three days! The rooms have plenty of space to spread out and relax. They’ve got everything you need: well-equipped kitchens, a big TV with Netflix, and the Wi-Fi works perfectly. It’s in a great spot too, really close to the waterfront and just a short walk to town. The hosts are lovely and make you feel right at home. I’d 100% recommend this place for anyone on holiday!

- Joan (10/5): Great hospitality in Bay of Islands - Exceptionally clean and well maintained studio. The King size bed was very comfortable and we had everything needed for an enjoyable three night stay. Our host, Julie, was friendly and welcoming, without being intrusive. She gave us many good recommendations and provides a laundry service, which was much appreciated on our extended trip. Pahia is a beautiful spot to spend a few days. Highly recommended. The property is at the edge of town and most people would need to drive in. However, this is no problem as there is a lot of free parking.
- Guccione (10/5): Would definitely stay again and recommend to others. - The host was so friendly and helpful. She gave us great tips about places to eat. The rooms were very well set up and spacious. Fresh milk for cups of tea:) Delicious biscuits.
- Maro (10/5): Very friendly place - Julie was a wonderful host, always friendly and helpful. The rooms were comfortable and the kitchenette had everything we needed for a simple meal. It's a little too far to walk to the center of town, so we drove. Finding parking was a bit challenging.
