The Retreat

The Retreat offers spacious, self-contained holiday accommodation 2km from the centre of Paihia, Bay of Islands, New Zealand. The Retreat overlooks the magnificent Bay of Islands and Te Haumi beach. Set just off the main road on a 4-hectare (10-acre) bush-covered peninsula, our quiet, private and secure holiday accommodation awaits you. Leave the hectic pace of life behind and enjoy our friendly, informal, relaxed atmosphere.
Perfect one day - superb the next.

The private bush setting of our accommodation allows you to see native NZ birds at close range whilst being only minutes from the Paihia town centre and an extensive range of Bay of Islands cruises, activities and cafes. The Retreat is a relaxed and private alternative to motel and hotel accommodation.

The panoramic sea views and coastal location are breathtaking. The Retreat has 1 studio and 8 spacious 1 and 2-bedroom units with full kitchens, decks and stunning sea views over the Bay of Islands.
