Wonderful Stay - Bayview at 91 B&B in Whitianga

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 10 Apr 2019via mobile
What an impressive way to begin our travels in New Zealand! Our Kupe suite accommodation had a private patio overlooking beautiful Mercury Bay...quite a view. The suite was spacious, spotless and beautifully decorated. We had the best top-quality linens. Every room had your comfort in mind. Our hosts, David and Dimitri, made you immediately feel at home. Our breakfasts were wonderful with freshly cut and prepared fruit, home-baked breads, cereals and eggs of your choice. The table was elegantly set making guests feel very special. In the evening, before dinner plans, there were drinks and canapés served on the spacious comfortable deck for all guests allowing us to visit and chat. Such a nice touch! If transportation was needed to a restaurant, David offered to drive and pick up. All in all, this was a special stay on the Coromandel Peninsula! We highly recommend Bayview at 91 Bed and Breakfast.

When you know you just need a couple of days being looked after by true professionals who can unobtrusively make you immediately know you're in the right place - then this is the place to be. David and Dimitri are natural and consummate hosts, anticipating every need before you've realised it yourself.
The decor is beautiful; the views outstanding; the food delicious and attention to detail exquisite.
I didn't want to leave - and I can't wait to return.

I just stayed two lovely nights at Bayview at 91. From the moment I arrived, I felt special as the service and greeting were second to none. I choose the Kupe Suite and would highly recommend it. Beautifully appointed and exceptionally private, you could hide away here if you wanted privacy and in fact, it is often chosen for just that reason. David was exceptionally discreet and although Stars were hinted at names were not mentioned. The views across Mercury Bay are breathtaking and stretching out to take them in was so relaxing you could quite easily forget to explore the Coromandel region. Breakfast was absolutely 'spot on' - there is something about fresh local produce perfectly prepared and presented to get your day started. Evening drinks while watching the Autumn sun disappear were fun and informative - David and Dimitri have lived fascinating and exciting lives and we had more than a few laughs sharing our travel experiences. I was sad to leave but it is a lovely drive from Auckland so the Boys can expect a return visit - the perfect break location for a city girl.

We just felt like home. David and Dimitri took care of us in an excellent way.
After 3.5 weeks of traveling through New Zealand, we couldn't imagine a better place to finish this journey. Thanks for the great hospitality. Hope to see you again soon.

My husband and I celebrated our one year anniversary at the fabulous Bayview at 91. The view is stunning and the hospitality is second to none. David and Dimitri really go out of their way with their comfort, attention to detail and excellent service. From the beautifully laid breakfast table to the warm and inviting evening drinks to the carefully considered recommendations of what to see and where to eat - it was top class and thoroughly enjoyable. My only complaint was that we were only there for 2 nights, our choice entirely but I wanted more !!
