派爾尼爾海濱公寓式飯店(Pioneer Waterfront Apartments)

We stayed at one of the mid level apartment facing the waterfront. We had a comfortable stay. The two bedroom apartment was well appointed. The bathroom appears to have been recently renovated. The kitchen had all the necessary equipments. Two large LED TV’s in the apartment (one in the main bedroom, the other on the lounge). Reasonable WiFi speed (free). The outdoor pool and spa were a bonus. On-site parking provided. The location was too notch! Very quick walk to the wharf and town centre. To nitpick, the bathroom can do with a hand towel rail, and the queen bed was very (too) soft!

Very welcoming! Facilities excellent! Room beautifully clean and comfortable. Good heating. Close to main road but no noise whatsoever. Washing machine and drier in unit whic is fabulous. Spa clean and lovely tkmyse. Really close to town, eateries, Waitangi, and boat to Russell. Will definitely stay again.

Booked in for 2 nights - Room and facilities were awesome - big downer was the toilet being so small and very tight with the hand basin jambed up so close to the toilet bowl. Any person over 1.85 cm tall would have extreme difficulty sitting on that toilet. I have stayed in hotels all over the world and never seen such a restrictive toilet - even in asia. Put the toilet in the bathroom and you will have top class facilities.

From the first phone call to book Viv was professional and helpful. Cheerful service. Got two penthouse apartments. Awesome views, well appointed,.you could easily stay self contained for weeks. Central to everything, easy walk to dinner in either direction. Only complaint was hard pillows. Will definitely return

Booked two apartments here for family one waterfront the other poolside both were lovely well equipped very comfortable king size beds spa pools lovely and hot. Great location across from wharf. Wonderful hostess Vivienne is just delightful the loveliest host we have ever had. Recommend paying a bit extra for waterfront well worth it! 5 star rating ⭐️⭐️

The property was located within easy walking distance to everything. Viv was a great host and so friendly. It was great having the toilet separate from the shower area. Very nice patio to enjoy the view and was close enough to enjoy a nice breeze and the sound of the waves crashing. I hope to return again.

We loved our stay at Pioneer - only wished we could have stayed longer. Location is fantastic right on the beach and would definitely recommend a sea view as you wake up to a lovely view over to Russell. Vivienne is a fantastic host and gave us a wonderful welcome after a long journey up north. She also checked in on us throughout our stay. We are a family with two teens and the appt was perfect for us .

Spent a 10 day holiday at Piahia and the Pioneer Waterfront Apartments. The location is pretty much ideal with most things within easy walking distance. We had views across the bay to Russell plus the passing array early morning walkers (just no running round your room naked screaming ("I'm Free, I'm Free!) is recommended. Property is well appointed with everything required for a self catering holiday, if that's your thing. Plenty of good eateries close at hand. Viv the host is very welcoming, natural and helpful. Easy to see why this property is always near the top of reviews. Have no problems recommending the Pioneer Waterfront Apartments for a Bay of Islands holiday.

From the moment I booked Viv was amazing, so professional, but also very kind and thoughtful. The location is incredible, so handy to everything! I stayed in the penthouse, it was beautiful, so clean and crisp, yet relaxing, warm and private. The spa bath was perfect, fantastic bed, great sleep 😴 Awesome set up, location and staff, will definitely be back numerous times!
