Booking

  We stayed in a two-bedroom Crows Nest Villa in Opua for two nights and found it to be excellent. Gail was such a kind and welcoming host, and our early... read more check-in was quick and easy.The villa was fantastic. It was perfectly clean and fully self-contained. There was an outdoor deck/terrace with a superb view over the Opua Harbour offering the perfect way to enjoy breakfast and have evening drinks and dinner. The villa was set slightly back from the main road, so it was very quiet, yet only a short 5 min drive to Paihia. We will be back again, for sure. Thank you so much, Gail!!!

  We stayed in the villas on our recent holiday to NZ and they are lovely. Very clean with all the amenities you need. The balcony and views over the water... read more & marina are nothing short of breathtaking. Our favourite spot after a day exploring the bay.
A welcome bottle of wine most appreciated.
Highly recommend dinner at the local Opua Yacht Club, very nice meal with a beautiful outlook.
Paihia is only a 5 minute drive. Oxley’s pub is a great spot to dine. A must visit is a quirky little eatery in a side lane called Third World Vending, great coffee, beautiful freshly made food, the vanilla slice is to die for. Run by a lovely friendly couple. Omata Estate Vineyard & Kitchen is also highly recommended, their grazing plate is amazing & delicious wood fired pizza. Take the ferry across to Russell it is a beautiful little town worth a visit.
We had the most memorable stay at The Bridge Deck - Crows Nest Villa in the beautiful Bay Of Islands.

  You go down a little driveway, walk down a few steps...unlatch a gate --and paradise opens up! A gorgeous, airy perch over the water. One of a kind and deeply... read more refreshing. We loved it. Really did feel like a nest at the end of each day.
