Centabay Lodge and Backpackers, hotel in Paihia

Centabay Lodge offers budget accommodations right in the center of Paihia. Choose from a bed in one of the spacious dormitory rooms or stay in a private room to suit your budget.

Centabay was my favourite hostel that I stayed at in New Zealand!!! I loved the vibrant atmosphere, the lovely backpacker-staff and the wonderful manager who was always a joy to chat with. The prices are incredibly reasonable for a place in the middle of Paihia, and you can tell the manager isn't in it for the profit - she genuinely wants to help travellers have the best experience possible. The hot tub worked well and was always great to use. The hammocks and tropical garden are another bonus. I could go on and on!

    Great to take the hole in the rock boat trip.

    Great to take the hole in the rock boat trip. Very convenient to catch the boat and hope over to Russell for a day trip. Lovely meal and walk at the wineyard in Russell. Lovely time to visit Pahia when it is sunny. Beautiful to spend 4 to 7 days chilling with the perfect sunset and sunrise. The indian restaurant along the beach at pahia is very authentic. Highly recommend pahia roadtrip.

    Paihia is a very good place to stay if you want to explore...

    Paihia is a very good place to stay if you want to explore Northland. If you are driving, you can go on your own to the tip of the North Island in about 3 hours. You can drive over to the Kauri Forest on the west side in about 1.5 hours. You can get tours out of Paihia for the Bay of Islands, the Ninety Mile Beach/Cape Reinga, Waitangi Treaty Grounds (you can walk there, about 3 km), rent kayaks or paddle boards, get fishing charters, take a ferry to Russell (or drive there). We spent 5 nights there and could have stayed a few more days and done even more.

    Paihia is such a beautiful part of New Zealand!

    Paihia is such a beautiful part of New Zealand! As the gateway to the Bay of Islands, there is so much to see and do here. There are some incredible restaurants to eat at and my husband highly recommends the Waitangi Golf Club just 5 minutes from Paihia. Definitely add the Bay of Islands to your list of places to visit in the North Island of NZ!

    Great town with friendly locals.

    Great town with friendly locals. All hospitality options covered, with a bar on a jetty that is very pleasant but always seemed short staffed. Easy walking town and a jetty to Russell with happy staff to greet you. Visited Pompallier House in Russell which is well worth the visit and again met with lovely friendly greeting and service.

    Fabulous location, right across from the beach, and an easy walk into the center of town. We had an upstairs studio facing the water, and the view was incredible! I couldn’t believe that we had the same view as people paying MUCH more in other properties. The staff was pleasant, and helpful, offering suggestions for restaurants and answering any questions. There was a very well-equipped kitchenette, and a laundry on site, as well. I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a Paihia holiday.

    What a view!! Stunning view of the bay from the lounge area and the balcony of apartment 1. Large, older style, clean and comfortable 2 bedroom apartment with everything needed. Parking right outside the door. Short drive from The Retreat into Paihia town - too far to walk. Very happy and friendly welcome. The apartment reminded me of those lovely beach shacks in Australia we holidayed in when I was a child.

    The Averill Motel is in a good location and within easy walking distance to bars restaurants and the beach. We found the manager very informative and helpful for excursions. The unit was clean and we had fresh towels every day. We only booked for two nights but stayed a third night. I can recommend the motel. Has nice pool and spa and the area around was very clean.

    We have stayed here a few times now and this is the place we will continue to come in the future. Room was big enough for 5 of us, kids love the pool and spa. This is the draw card for our family as not every hotel has a heated pool and spa. No residents staying here!! Awesome place to stay with your family, feels safe and comfortable. Thanks to Jo and her team.

    It’s always refreshing going to a hotel/resort and meeting staff who go out of their way to make you feel welcome and comfortable even with the restrictions we face in a covid climate. The facilities are immaculate but the people who work here make this resort a place you’d definitely want to holiday in.

    The view from all rooms and the Lania were spectacular! The rooms were clean and well cared for, and the location was within walking distance to shops and restaurants. There is a beautiful beach across the street to walk or swim! The historical areas are also nearby and an easy walk, too.

    The property was close to town, and the rooms were tidy, Clean and private, although we were a couple we enjoyed the family feel that the hotel had, been so close to town meant we were able to walk to places and explore.
