Perched on a hill with sweeping views across Waitangi, Russell and the Bay of Islands. Surrounded by mature Totara trees, wake up to the sunrise from your spacious well-appointed apartment with en-suite, conservatory, private sundeck, and limited kitchen facilities.

Enjoy the vista of ocean liners and sailing boats - or simply be mesmerized by the stunning view. Within minutes "keep fit steps" will lead you to the village centre, restaurants, wharf, beaches, bush and coastal tracks. Only a ten minute ferry ride to historic Russell across the Bay. Paihia, in the Bay of Islands, is the centre for a wide range of activities which make it New Zealand's number one scenic resort.
Frank is an international photographer. His pictorials illustrate the beauty of New Zealand's Bay of Islands. He and Christine fell in love many years ago with the Bay. He also captured London's "Swinging Sixties" in two photographic books. Christine has a degree in Hotel Management. For breakfast you will be spoiled with a choice of delicious Austrian pancakes, fresh fruit and other delights.
