The Sanctuary at Bay of Islands, hotel in Opua

Surrounded by native landscapes, Bay of Islands Lodge offers free Wi-Fi and great views over the Bay of Islands. Guests have access to a large terrace with a heated plunge pool.

The views are beautiful and the hosts are amazing. Glennis and Dave made us feel so welcome and helped us re-arrange our plans when they were a bit overly ambitious. The breakfasts were delicious and the place is nicely decorated, comfortable and just fantastic. We felt like family the second we drove down the driveway and were greeted as we pulled up. A truly wonderful stay.

    I would highly recommend staying at Waters Edge.

    I would highly recommend staying at Waters Edge. It was amazing to wake up each day to the view of the water and the sound of the birds. The home is a short walk along the track to Opua marina area. I believe that you can also walk the same track to Paihia although we ran out of time to do this. A close car ride to Paihia. There are plenty of tourist attractions to see.

    Location is brilliant. Right next to the Opua car ferry which provides a bit of movement and interest as the ferries come and go. All rooms were spacious. Kitchen had everything you could need. Bathroom was lovely with spacious shower and underfloor heating. Beds very comfy and cosy. We even caught a few fish from the deck. A bonus for us was the Allpress coffee from the nearby General Store

    The stunning views, the comfy bed, the quiet location. After the hustle & bustle of Paihai it was great to come back to the sanctuary of our cottage each day. Opua Marina - quite a treasure. Easy car ferry over to Russell, General Store, several dining options, spotless laundromat right next door to best bar/cafe with a French Chef for delicious evening meal. We loved our time here.

    The views were sensational and the apartment was fabulous! We were extremely lucky to get fresh baked bread the first morning and the second morning we got home made crossaints. Both mornings we had fresh fruit, yoghurt and condiments. Such an awesome place to end our Honeymoon and 3.5 week trip around New Zealand.

    Lovely accommodation in a beautiful location and setting. Absolutely loved the mornings with freshly baked bread and breakfast treats, sitting out on the deck watching the boats and tui birds. We stayed in the One Bedroom Opua apartment and it was so spacious for the two of us. We were definitely sad to leave!

    Such an awesome home away from home. We loved the breakfast provided, especially the home grown eggs! The games, the books, the cosy beds, everything was great. We also really enjoyed walking down to the cycle pathway and heading down to the Opua marina. Fabulous holiday. Thank you.

    Beautifully situated over the water at Opua, the veranda views are unsurpassed. Our hosts were fantastic and very accommodating. They have considered every need in setting up the unit. The sounds of water lapping under foot lull you to sleep.

    Stunning location directly on the waterfront with a sunny balcony overlooking the bay. The Boathouse is right next to the Opua/ Russell car ferry which runs all day, but that did not affect our enjoyment of the property.
