Guest Reviews
- Mia (10/5): - nice and clean, walkable distance from piha beach and the drive to bethells beach was easy
- chihiro (10/5): - 私の拙い英語に対して、根気良く対応いただきました。
他の宿泊者もいい人が多く、ゆったり過ごせました。
- Verified traveler (10/5): Schönes Hostel - Ist ein schönes Hostel, aber man kann auch normale ‚Hotelzimmer‘ mit Bad haben. Ca 15min vom Beach und in der Nähe der Wasserfälle.
- Britney (10/5): - The pictures really don’t do justice for how beautiful this place and area is. It was quiet, had everything you needed, the view is stunning, it is short walk to beach and to walk to the falls! Highly recommend!
- Vanessa (8/5): - Good and quiet hostel. Room with ensuite was great! Limited rooms making for a cosy feel. Would recommend
- Yllithia (10/5): - Incredible stay! Thank you.
- Sharron (10/5): - Wow. Such a great find once we found this place! Beautiful area and beach!
- Hermann (10/5): Ein kleines Juwel in einem ruhigen Seitental - Das Hostel liegt in einem bewaldeten Seitental, etwa 10Min zu Fuss vom Strand. Unser Zimmer (mit Bad) war das schönste unserer bisherigen NZ-Reise (nach 1 Monat). Wir fühlten uns darin sehr wohl. Schade, hatten wir nur 1 Nacht gebucht. Am Morgen besuchten uns Hennen des Hostels auf der Terrasse. Ihre Eier bereicherten schliesslich unser Frühstück
- Emma (10/5): - This Beachstay is in a beautiful location. The house itself is very well equipped and has great common areas and facilities. Beds super comfortable. Everyone very respectful and friendly. 10 minute walk to the beach, and 2 walking tracks within minutes walk.
- Kimberley (10/5): - Close to the beach and hikes. Very laid back. Jeff has great recommendations which are posted right on the wall for your convenience. He even has farm fresh eggs from his chicken available for $1 and a trampoline. So fun!
- Verified traveler (10/5): 楽しかった! - アットホームなので、プライバシーが気になる方はやめたほうがいいけど、最低限は守られているので自分としては全く問題なかった。
窓からの景色もよく、かなりのんびり出来る宿です。
- Verified traveler (10/5): A peaceful, green stay - This was such a lovely place to stay, in a gorgeous location. I wish I could have booked a longer stay. The outdoor area was full of greenery and a perfect place to kick back with a book or conversation. The hostel had a cozy feeling, and also walking distance to a nice waterfall hike and to the beach.
- Wolfgang (10/5): - We unfortunately stayed just for one night at this beautiful Hostel. We really enjoyed the time there. The check-in was easy and uncomplicated. Geoff is a really friendly person. The walk to the beach is about 15min. We could definitely recommend this hostel!
- Allan (10/5): - Comfortable, rustic and homely hostel. Beautiful lush green natural environment in a quiet location. Staff friendly and relaxed. Rooms Comfortable and clean with all necessities provided.
- Barbara Shiree (10/5): - Very nice clean hostel
- Lucie (10/5): - Amazing ! Thank you !
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent!! - It was my first time staying in a hostel, and I was pleasantly surprised, the place was extremely clean, and very welcoming. If i am ever in Piha again, I would for sure stay there again!
- Alissa (10/5): - It’s a wonderful place to stay! So happy I finished my stay in the north island there!
- Hayley (10/5): - A beautiful place to stay. very friendly, clean and close to the beach.
- Sean (10/5): Nice stay in Phia - Overall great stay. Walking distance to the beach and hiking trails. I did the Kite Kite trail and walked up and down Phia beach. Beautiful area.
- Maureen (10/5): - Lovely, secret hideaway on a gorgeous piece of property. We stayed in the room with en suite bath, which was clean, spacious, and quiet.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Wished I could have stayed longer! - It was such a lovely stay, I wished I could have stayed longer! Could easily do a week there, the short distance is totally worthwhile for the breathtaking views. Everyone was friendly and welcoming even the pets.
- Farida (10/5): - At Piha Beachstay, the staff were very friendly and helpful especially Jeff #1 who went out of his way to fixed a surfboard so I can rent it and Jeff #2 who was hospitable making checkin easy. The room was clean and spotless-thanks to the amazing housekeepers! The bed and pillows were so comfortable. The outdoor patio area had comfy chairs for sitting out and a trampoline for a fun bounce! A shared kitchen equipped with everything you need to cook including a good size fridge and free range eggs (for purchase but a nice touch!). The location was perfect just steps away to breathtaking Kitekite Falls and 10-15 minutes walk to famous sites such the Lion Rock, Piha surf beach and the Tasman Sea Lookout. I would definitely stay here again when I return to Piha about 45 minutes west of Auckland City.
- Joshua (10/5): - Very laid back, nice common area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was a wonderfully peaceful stay, wish we had had longer there. Eggs for breakfast from chickens in the grounds.
- Matt (8/5): - Great scenery! Secluded spot a short walk to the cafe and shop.
- Kat (10/5): - INCREDIBLE SPACE! We were blown away by the beauty, cleanliness, and general environment of the hostel. Lovely full kitchen, comfy shared space, plenty of bathrooms, and clean cozy rooms. Each area had patio doors that opened up to the most incredible views of nothing but mountain. Really wonderful guests and hosts. Recommend 12/ 10 and will be going back!
- Bradley (10/5): Piha - great place to stay and enjoy Piha Beach the walk to the waterfall was fun too
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Das Hotel ist eine tolle Oase zum entspannen und um alles drumherum zu erreichen
- Alexandra (10/5): Immer wieder - Freundlicher Empfang! Ich hatte übersehen, dass ich in einem Mehrbettzimmer gebucht habe, aber das war völlig in Ordnung. Die Doppelzimmer sagen ebenfalls sehr schön aus. Leider sind die Sir Hillary Trails im Moment mehrheitlich geschlossen.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Friendly and helpful staff, close to the beach.
Sucks a lot of trails are closed but staff was helpful in finding alternative hikes for the day
- Matthew (6/5): A pleasant place to experience Piha - Very clean. The house has nice gardens and beautiful scenery.
- Keri (10/5): Great experience - We only stayed one night but they were very accomidating to us showing up a couple of hours early. The ensuite room was clean and comfortable and had a nice deck to relax on. Easy access to everything around Piha.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Good hostel - Very nice spot. Far from beach but hostel itself couldn’t be better.
- Verified traveler (10/5): hostel muy bien ubicado - LIndas vistas, cerca de la playa y muy buena onda y espacio personal en el hostel
- Cazza (10/5): Quiet stay in picturesque surroundings - We were warmly welcomed and shown around. We had the Nikau room which was modern, clean and comfortable. We had a private ensuite and rear access to a private balcony and car park. The communal kitchen was well stocked and user friendly. A very nice outlook from the dining and sitting areas. A little bit of a walk to the beach but if time is on your side it is not an issue.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Fantastic place so quiet and clean!
Very beautiful garden!
My best accomodation in NZ
- Mike (10/5): Gone fishing - Loved this place. It was a nice relaxed place to unwind, go fishing, surfing or hiking. Geoff and staff keep the kitchen, living, bathrooms and rooms very clean. Makes you want to move here. Beautiful sunset
- Verified traveler (10/5): - only spent one night but i felt like it was a special little place. I stayed on a top bulk which was surprisingly comfortable. definitely nicer than your average hostel. And if the woman who was doing nature hikes is still there (loraine I believe was her name) definitely take her up on one, her energy is infectious.
- M (8/5): Beautiful homely stay - Lovely beachstay just a short walk to Piha beach/cafe. Greeted by very friendly staff. Room has beautiful view of lush gardens and mountains. Only area that could improve would be notifying guests in advance of their plan for loud music and fire crackers (with visiting small children screaming and dogs barking) the night I stayed. Thankfully I had ear plugs and was able to sleep after my long journey.
- Bruno (10/5): Bon pour les backpackers - Emplacement très calme, ambiance chaleureuse dans la pièce commune.
Grande terrasse pour les jours ensoleillés. 2 douches et 3 toilettes pour tout l'établissement.
A 2 min de l'entrée du circuit pédestre pour la cascade.
- FOONG (4/5): Don't book this hostel - Very unpleasant with the service. Arrived hostel with no body there service you
- Hawaii529 (10/5): Great location...Great decor! - Very vibrant area, close to the beach, lots of parking, and in an idyllic setting. Definitely recommended.
- John (10/5): Beautiful Hostel - One of the cleanest hostels I have ever stayed in. Close to hiking trails and a shirt drive to the beach.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great building and decor. Fab Location. - Relaxing stay in a clean & safe place. 5-10 min walk from beach & Hilary trail.
