We recently had our business conference at Scenic Hotel Bay of Islands and the hotel team could not do anything more than the top class service they provided throughout our stay. The rooms were nicely appointed and clean; the food excellent and the positive attitude of all the staff made it a fantastic stay and event.

We had a wonderful two night stay with the family recently. The rooms were spacious and clean. Our kids enjoyed the pool. The breakfast buffet had a great range and was delicious. We ended up leaving the car and walking to the beach. It was a 5 minute walk so the hotel is at a great location.

– Nick C (Google Reviews)

A lovely place to stay in the Bay of Islands. This is a delightful hotel with single level bungalows spread over a hectare or so. The rooms are fresh, comfortable and clean and have outside sitting areas. The restaurant serves very nice meals using fresh local seafood and produce and is not expensive. Staff are pleasant and helpful. I heartily recommend this hotel.
