Super location, amazing wrap around deck, Host is attentive without being intrusive. Lots of local tips, friendly. We never felt awkward in shared kitchen bathroom lounge or verandahs. Amazing value for sparkling clean accommodation so close to central Paihia. I don’t usually go for shared house/private room type accommodation, but this experience with Jarrad might have changed my mind on that. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Definitely 5 star. Best value in the Bay!
