We cannot speak highly enough of our stay at Bay of Islands Gateway and of the welcome and help we received from Julie. The apartment was spotless, excellent location, parking right in front. Julie went out of her way to book tour and generally make our stay such a friendly and happy one. Would stay there again.
Nothing, all good

Highly recommended!
Could not fault anything.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!!

Julie was absolutely delightful. She, and her cat, gave us a great welcome.
The place was spotless, very well located but off the main drag so away from road noise.

The room was spacious and very comfortable bed and pillows.
The kitchenette was well fitted out with tea, coffee, and milk in the fridge.
Julie and Marti were very welcoming and Julie updated us on the Russell ferry cancellations due to bad weather and offered alternative suggestions.
Its a short 15 min walk to the ferry along the water which we were aware of.
Countdown is just across the road
Very good value for money.
For motel accommodation I cant really think of anything we didnt like.
