島灣哈卡小屋-派希亞(Haka Lodge Bay of Islands (Paihia))

One of the best hostel I’ve stayed in the view great Close to ferry and intercity bus stop Big kitchen a

The uniqueness of property is its location bang opposite to shore. Staff is very helpful, resourceful and kind. Unfortunately, room allotted to me had no window or air duct. It was a bright shine warm day and temperatures were in early 30s. Inside room temp was hot & humid. I spent almost till 11:30 in dining area so that inside room temp is bearable and once you are so tired and sleepy you do not feel anything around. Same was complaint from other guests. Rooms have no air duct or window. Fans were also average at least coolers would have somehow helped. But other than this drawback everything else is super cool.

Nice and kind team. Beautiful spot and everything is clean. The kitchen is big and good organiced. The rooms are warm at night but when we open the door a litle bit it is perfect. They also could book your tours. I can realy recomand this place.!

A nice hostel. Had all the amenities needed, even though the water pressure was a tad bit low. The receptionist Max was extremely nice and service minded! The kitchen and lounge were up to par and the hostel was always clean. Loved the view and most of all, I loved the vibe! Would recommend a stay if you are in Paihia!

Ideal location to explore Paihia. Clean, tidy and bright. Facilities and all amenities are considerately provided. All staff are so kind, helpful and hospitable. My encounter with Scott in the front desk was a terrific, happy and memorable experience. He tried to help and delight me in every way possible. The feeling and vibe was extraordinarily positive. Out of 100 aspects he has helped; only 1 item failed; that was, the height of the upper bunk bed could only be around 60~80 centimeters? I think anyone with height over 150 centimeters cannot even sit-up on the bed. I could even say it could be a suffering to stay in such bunk nook. Be aware!

Great place to stay. A calm and clean place. Only thing I can think to complain about is the shower pressure. One time it was fine, then the next time it was barely a dribble, despite no one else using the showers at the same time. Otherwise was a perfect stay.

It was my first time in a very long time in a back packers sharing all common areas. I feel a cleaner should be on hand to clear the areas left messy by alot of people with low cleanliness standards. The kitchen shared equipment needs to be update ie fridges & cupboards. The room I shared was stuffy with no windows and a noisy air vent humming all night so this was uncomfortable. A lovely senior staff member helped with our non working room facilities. Air con should be in every room esp with 2 or more people sharing. The view and location was amazing. Linen clean and comfy beds. I would request a room with windows next time. As we were on a road trip parking was an issue when unpacking our personal effects. possibly obtaining a few spaces in the back of the complex would be convenient. all in all a pleasant 2 day stay.

Fantastic low cost accomodation. Tayliah was a great host. Perfect central location with everything an easy walk away. No parking except on the street, but this was fine for overnight parking. Would highly recommend.
