We enjoyed a wonderful week at The Captain’s Cove in Paihia. It truly was a ‘home away from home’. Jo and Craig have created a little piece of paradise and it was an absolute pleasure staying in such a warm and cosy place in the middle of winter. Comfy beds, a roomy couch and the kitchen had all that we needed to cook a few meals, which was great.
Jo was a fabulous host, had heaps of ideas for things for us to do and was always on hand if we needed something. She went above and beyond to make our stay really special and we won’t forget her kindness, concern and awesome sense of humour. :-)
The place was tastefully decorated with the seaside theme both inside and out - we kept discovering lots of little treasures during our stay - such fun! The location up on the hill is so peaceful, with beautiful birdsong in the stunning garden. It was very easy to relax and unwind. Great parking on the driveway too, very close to the Cove’s entrance.
We highly recommend this airbnb and wouldn’t hesitate in staying again, if we’re up in the Bay of Islands again.
