This place is absolutely amazing! It is situated in a stunning location, that will take your breath away. The views are unreal and the accommodation is definitely up there with the best we have stayed at (we've travelled a fair bit).
To top it off, is the host David, who had gone out of his way to help me make our 28th anniversary more special, by arranging a nice little gift for my wife. He was welcoming and a wealth of knowledge, not only about Whitianga but New Zealand as a whole, which we found invaluable. Nothing was too much for him in order to make our stay the best. A delicious breakfast is served each morning, with homemade bread to die for. The town is a short drive away, with plenty of lovely bars, restaurants shops and activities. Definitely a little slice of heaven.
Date of stay: September 2024
Room Tip: The drive to the Town and harbour is a short and easy one. Plenty of free parking. Also there is...

The hosts David and Adriano were so helpful and the suite upstairs is so quaint and cozy, everything you need is at your fingertips. The breakfast was so lovely each morning, and the homemade baked bread was exceptional.. Would highly recommend this special slice of heaven

Room tip: Visited in September (Spring) and was very beautiful, a little chilly, windy.. Ate at Blue Lagoon and Blue Ginger, both delicious..

We had the pleasure of staying at the Bayview Valley Lodge with David and Adriano. We stayed in the Tui Suite with most amazing ocean views. David was a very attentive host. We enjoyed our breakfast and had coffee on the patio enjoying the beautiful views. The bed was very comfortable and the suite is very well appointed. We would highly recommend this accommodation for a relaxed and enjoyable stay. Ben and Stephen

We spent three wonderful days at Bayview Valley Lodge in March 2024.
David is a host with heart and soul. You can see and feel this when you enjoy the generous, delicious and freshly prepared breakfast at the table laid with great attention to detail. The spacious room with sofa, the bathroom with high-quality toiletries and the wonderful view of Mercury Bay leaves nothing to be desired.
Thanks to David's recommendations and detailed tips on excursions, we were able to fully enjoy the beauty of the beaches and nature in the surrounding area.
The absolute highlight, however, was when David invited us to dinner with friends of his and cooked a specialty from Calabria. We will remember this evening for a long time to come. Many thanks David!
