This is an amazing place to stay! We booked unexpectedly due to a cyclone and watched the the torrential rains and wind feeling safe and secure. There were only two of us, so place was much bigger than we needed but we will definitely be recommending to friends!!!

Location was awesome. Ferry does work all day next door but we liked it as there was always something going on. Can fish straight off the deck and catch! Clean and tidy. Will be back but will probably stay at the apartment a bit more and enjoy the bay.

The stunning views, the comfy bed, the quiet location. After the hustle & bustle of Paihai it was great to come back to the sanctuary of our cottage each day. Opua Marina - quite a treasure. Easy car ferry over to Russell, General Store, several dining options, spotless laundromat right next door to best bar/cafe with a French Chef for delicious evening meal. We loved our time here.
