Charming Beachfront Retreat at Bay View – Step Back in Time by the Sea (Flat 2)

10/10 Excellent

"A great place to stay and wind downBeautiful view easy access to facilitiesIf it was closer we would be backThank you"

Copthorne Hotel and Resort Bay of Islands

8/10 Good

"Love the breakfast and the discounts given for the children. Also love the pool area especially for families. Room for improvements: Maybe provide a heated pool during Spring time so that we can make the most of our time there and also need to clean the rooms daily. The cleaners only cleaned on the first day. Without a valid reason, they stopped providing this service. I had to call the receptionist to come and clean/empty bins/provide new towels. Also, the TV system needs to upgraded with a wifi connection to link with phones/laptops etc. It’ll make the experience more enjoyable. Other than that, we had a comfortable stay here."

The Duke of Marlborough Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was a lovely older building that was well maintained and had the best outdoor dining water-view. The dining/bar had great ambiance and the food was unique and delicious.
