Although the bedroom was a little dark, it was exceptionally clean and restocked daily. The bed was REALLY comfy - We loved the garden in front of the room.
The highlight of the hotel were the staff! All of them. The stand outs were Robyn and Debz on reception. How brilliant they were at pointing us in the right direction, giving us information on the area and the history and SO friendly. Debz was amazing!

Don't miss this, even if it means going out of your way.
Don't miss this, even if it means going out of your way. The museums tell the story of NZ and its people in an even handed and self critical way that makes one think .. There is a relaxing cafe on the grounds and leafy, well maintained trails and arbor walks.

We ran out of time visiting everywhere else, but definitely on the next holiday list. Thank you to the local guides that stopped and had a chat with us about the history. Checkout the Waitangi treaty grounds website for more details! You need 1-2 days for the visit and the price of entry includes guided tours and a Maori performance as well as the history.

This is a must do.
This is a must do. Our Maori tour guide was hugely informative and entertaining. It is an excellent introduction to the history of the country and its evolution. It is also beautiful and peaceful with lots to see. We could have spent a lot longer there.

Excellent!
Excellent! Your admission is good for two days; they do not need to be consecutive but they expect you to come within a day or two. Lots to see in the museum so come back when you have more time if pressed on the day you do the tour and cultural experience.

Beautiful spot and buildings and displays beautifully set out. Enjoyed the first half of the tour as it was informative and it was great seeing a waka up close for the first time and see how they were constructed however did not enjoy the talk that followed as it lacked balance ie no mention of how Maori and Government having been working together for many years now to address past injustices and was just a very lengthy monologue from I think the speakers personal perspective which gives visitors an incomplete picture and gives no credence to Maori Elders and Government who work very hard for years to bring a settlement to fruition.

Location and views were amazing. Very close to Waitangi Treaty grounds and the local supermarket a few minutes drive away. Great laundry facilities and living area. Overall was a great place to stay. Easy lock box for key when arriving.
Bay Sands was perfectly situated away from the main crowded area of Paihia yet close enough to walk to access all the activities offered at the wharf. It was also walking distance to Waitangi treaty grounds and the Hararu water falls. The beach area across the hotel was perfect to enjoy a quiet swim and a picnic in privacy. The unit was neat and comfortable with all appliances I could possibly need. The ?owner Jimmy was very pleasant and helpful.
Booked a cabin that was surprisingly spacious! Included bunk beds, two single beds, fridge, chairs and table. Also outside picnic table under a roof next to the cabin. All facilities clean and working.
Walking-distance to the Waitangi Treaty grounds.
It was close to attractions in Paihia, very close to Waitangi Treaty Grounds, close to the Countdown supermarket and close to a petrol station. It had a nice view of the bay. The accommodation was clean and there was a washing machine for our use.
