We arrived late and tired and awakened fresh and full of energy thanks to the lovely couple / owners. Perfect location, super clean room 🍀 and even a kitchenette with all you need ! Thank you very much from Marie et Marc ✈️ the South of France!!!!!

We loved our stay here. Our second floor corner suite had gorgeous views of the bay and sunrise. Fantastic location as it’s a short walk to restaurants, bars, and the ferry wharf. Waitangi is a short drive or walk away. Our suite was immaculately clean and had everything we needed for three nights. The bed was comfortable, and we had plenty of space. Lyn was warm and friendly and gave us good local recommendations. We would happily stay here again!

Great stay at Breakwater Motel for our family of five. Room was serviced daily, baby cot in the bedroom when requested. Large kitchen with utensils for cooking. Overall nice clean room with fantastic sea views.

Five nights = Five stars! Excellent room, excellent view, excellent staff, excellent stay. Everything about this hotel was awesome. Definitely our first choice when/if we return to the area.

This is a lovely motel in Paihia. We loved our stay here. We had enough space to get unpacked and comfortable and the view out our bedroom and living area were stunning. We loved waking up to the sounds and smells of the ocean and loved to leave the sliders open at night as we relaxed. Incredible views and very calm atmosphere.
The service was quite great as well. Anything we needed was taken care of quickly and the daily cleaning service was great.
My only complaint was that the internet connection was pretty poor. I had to sit in just the right spot in one area of our unit to get connected to the wifi. Once connected, it worked pretty well. But they could probably benefit from some additional access points to increase the wifi connectivity.

The best feature of this property was the fact it was within walking distance to all of the main facilities of Paihia. Restaurants, shopping and all tourism outlets were very handy.
The internet in our room was very limited and with no phone number listing or radio in the room access to local information was limited. The management did provide a wifi booster to assist with the internet access after we complained. Would suggest an upgrade to the internet access would be an asset in the post covid era in which compendiums are no longer supplied in guests rooms.

Internet only working in main room not in bedroom
Tv only had Chanel’s in the lounge room to use tv in bedroom you needed to walk into lounge to change the Chanel , very hard to do anything in the bedroom

We come back to The Breakwater Motel every year we’re in New Zealand. Must be 10 years since we first started to visit. Nowhere else to stay in The Bay of Islands for us. Great location, refurbished a few years ago and in amazing condition, AC, Sky cable TV & # 12 has heated floors. Lyn & Ken are knowledgeable hosts and know The Bay inside out. Hope to see them again real soon. Martin & Sue

A great motel in an excellent location although there is some traffic noise. We had an excellent unit with fantastic views. The unit was beautifully furnished with a good kitchen and great bathroom. Everything in Paihia is within walking distance.
