Baywaterviews Quality B&B located in quiet Haruru Falls (5 minutes from Paihia), with panoramic views of the sea, Russell, Waitangi Treaty Grounds & islands from all rooms. Room 1 is on the first floor with a table & chairs (no spa pool), Rooms 2 & 3 are on the Garden level each with a spa pool. Each morning I using fresh produce I prepare a continental & cooked breakfast served on your deck or in wet weather my breakfast room. Three off road parking spaces, I also live at the property. My aim is always very Happy Guests.
I like meeting guests from around the world & New Zealand, helping them with maps & advice on the best things to see & do here. I am originally from the UK. I have been working in Hotels & Bed & Breakfast for over 30 years. I moved to New Zealand in 2004. Six years ago I decided to renovate my own property into a 3 bedroomed Quality B&B with Rooms 2 & 3 each having their own Spa Pools & outstanding sea views from all rooms.
Haruru is 5 minutes after Paihia (a car is a must), making a great base for exploring the Far North.
