When visiting the extraordinary Bay of Islands, this is the place to stay. Quiet, elevated location in a residential neighbourhood. Very nice welcome from the Austrian/Swiss owner couple who run a spotless B&B. Lovely room with wonderful artistic detailing. Comfortable bed and practical bathroom with walk-in shower. Had the weather been more on our side, we could also have enjoyed the very inviting balcony and lovely view a bit more. A delicious breakfast hamper is provided on the first day. Easy 5 minute walk to the bus station and ferry dock. Our host Inge suggested we have dinner at the Duke of Marlborough on the other side of the bay and made the reservation for us. Delightful 15 minute evening ferry ride to a good meal waiting on the other side. Not to be missed. In the end, we were sorry we hadn't planned to stay longer at the Chalet Romantica.
