I stayed at Bali Hai with my 13 year old son. Andrew certainly made us feel welcome and special. He ran through the things to do in Paihia and booked our tours for us. He was always making sure things were ok and checking on us. The accomodation was perfect for what we wanted. Ideal cooking facilities and bedroom layout.... More

We stayed 3 nights. Our welcome was enthusiastic with a comprehensive rundown on the rooms, facilities and Paihia highlights (thankyou Andrew). Our room was a great size, being a studio room. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom adequate and the kitchenette had all we needed. There was a shed out the back with a dvd library for guests, barbques (free)... More

Really enjoyed my stay here and would stay again when I visit again? Andrew the host is a great guy who helped us lots to make sure or stay was good. More

I stayed in a standard room at the bali hai motel in paihia and it was perfect! It has everything you need and more, it has a fantastic LCD tv, a wide range of dvds an amazing view of the beach and the sunset setting on the hills, along with this it has a spa pool and access to a... More

Our intent was to stay for one night but decided to use the Bali Hai as a base and stayed three nights! In common with (some) other motels, we found it to be very clean and... More

If you don't have a car you might find it a bit far from downtown. My only other quibble would be that I prefer... More

We stayed here in mid January, 2012 and loved every minute of it. Facilities are fabulous: clean and spacious and we wanted for nothing. Andrew is so friendly and nothing is a bother. He clearly loves what he does and it shows (he hates a chat it would seem!! - lol) He helped make our stay (alas as short as... More

Stayed here in November after Road tripping around Northland. Andrew, the owner, gave us a warm welcome and recommended lots of things to do and see. He seemed very knowledgeable about the area of Paihia. Place was very clean, modern and tidy. We had a 2 Bedroom unit which included a Queen bed and a twin room. Each room had... More

If you're looking for beachfront accommodation, in the heart of the Paihia village, this may not be the place for you. But if you're looking for a quiet, tranquil getaway, just a stones throw away from the bustle of traffic & holiday-makers, this is the place to be! Booked ourselves into a superior studio apartment (No.9) and to our delight,... More
