I really can't believe how lucky we were to have found this place in Paihia to still be available over New Years Eve. A really lovely little private flat under the main house, set back from the main road in a quiet garden. Very nice and central to Paihia, but being set back meant very nice and quiet, away from what can be rather busy (and loud!) night life. Breakfast of toast and cereal, tea and coffee. Wifi didn't work but if needed we were offered to use their laptop upstairs in their house. Small children living upstairs meant that sleeping in wasn't really possible.

The hosts however were really lovely and very helpful (I forgot my phone charger when leaving Paihia...) - rating would have been higher if wifi had actually worked so we could easily contact our friends and family over the New Years period and if we could have slept in a little longer on New Years Day - If these things don't bother you, then I highly recommend this place!
