“Awesome Place to Stay while in Paihia”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 28, 2012

We are Canadian and I work in the travel industry and am well traveled. I try to find places that are good value for your money that are in good locations. Blue Pacific Apartments was exactly the right place to stay in Paihia. The rooms are clean, well appointed and in a perfect location. The location is quiet with only a 10-15 min walk from busy town. It is right across the street from the beautiful sandy beach that is perfect for swimming. We had room 5 which had two bedrooms and a large balcony with table, chairs, BBQ and hot tub. The oceanview from our balcony was spectacular, We stayed 3 nights and wished we could stay longer as there was so much to do. Doug was friendly and helped us plan activities to do while we were there. We enjoyed swimming with wild dolphins, golfing (10 min away), dinner cruise and shopping in town. The other big benefit was the grocery store only 3 minutes away. If you are a couple, single or family you will not be disappointed with this accommodation.

Room Tip: We really enjoyed room 5 as the hot tub on the balcony was great.

“"Nice apartment and location with a great view"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 21, 2012

We stayed 2-nights in this beautiful 2-storey apartment. It was wonderful! The bathroom was nice too! It has a sauna and a triangular bath tub. The scenery was amazing! The beach was nice. The bathrooms,bedrooms and the kitchen were all clean. Just about a 5-minute drive away, there's a fish'n'chips at Shippey's. It's delicious!

The apartment was also well-equipped with full kitchen facilities as well as free laundry facilities which was useful. Wifi was free, and the toiletries were nice!

Overall, it was an enjoyable stay in a great location. Will strongly recommend to family and friends!

“Great Views, nice apartments”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 4, 2012

Blue Pacific is 15 minutes walk from the main Paihia shops but this is an advantage as it is very quiet and no noisy bars or restaurants. The views out over the bay is stunning. The units are being kept to a high standard and the bathrooms have all been recently modernised. Doug the manager is very helpful.

“Great place to stay in the Bay of Islands”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 1, 2012

This is deservedly highly rated on trip advisor and elsewhere. The apartments are well located with great view over the Bay, and whilst you are a little out of town, there is a supermarket only a short walk away to stock up on food and other items, and central Paihia is easily walkable along the beachfront. The apartment itself is really well fitted out with everything you need - cooking facilities, washing machine, sky tv, dvd player, free internet access - and really comfortable. Quality of sleep was amazing, hardly any noise apart from the waves washing up on the beach and to be able to get the great views each morning of the sun on the bay from the balcony was excellent. The staff are really friendly and welcoming and provide good advice on tours etc. If you're planning on visiting the Bay of Islands or Northland I would highly recommend choosing here as the place to base yourself - it's an easy drive from here to all the major attractions and sight seeing spots, both on the east and west coasts (as there's hardly any traffic).

Room Tip: Book early to make sure you can get a room here.

“Excellent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 30, 2012 via mobile

We spent 5 nights in the 3 bedroom apartment number 1. Elderly mother and two middle aged children and their spouses. An ideal unit which was on the same level as the carpark but because the units are elevated the view from the unit and the large terrace is magnificent. Table for 6, lounges, stone bench seating and a spa make the trace fabulous.
The unit is well equipped, and serviced daily. Everything works and the manager happily provided extra tea bags when requested.
The units are not in the main part of town, but opposite a sandy beach to the west of town. A 10 minute walk into town is pleasant, but there are a few food shops two minutes away, and the big supermarket is a five minute walk in the other direction.
The units are not luxurious but very good accommodation, and the view makes up for any shortcomings. Probably the best in town.
