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.

    This motel is situated on the main strip of Paihia, was easily located. 10 mins walk to the Paihia Ferry harbour. Few minute's walk to the beach. Room was very comfortable and clean. Small kitchen facilities provided. Bathroom was clean and shower was a good size. Very happy with our stay. Friendly staff. Pool was nice as well. Water was a bit cold but since it was a hot day that didn't matter too much.

    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.

    Fabulous accommodation here at Paihia Central Apartments. Everything you need for a comfortable few nights. Hosts are very lovely and helpful, views over the Bay of Islands are fab. We weren’t so lucky with the weather (North Island’s stormy 2023 summer) but enjoyed our stay regardless. Would recommend keeping your luggage light, as there are plenty of steep steps up to the house.

    The size of the room was fabulous, i had travelled through to Kaeo to spend the day with my child, and decided to book at stay in Paihia. The location suited my needs and was extremely close to what i was looking for, as i was going to have a mirimiri at the community centre with David Denton on the saturday. I also appreciated that the rooms were clean.

    We have stayed at the beach house a number of times now and it is always a comfortable and homely stay. We enjoy this house as it is very spacious for the whole family/friends to enjoy. Close to the beach and countdown. The view is delightful, always nice to wake to. This house caters to a group of people (Families, group of friends, colleagues).

    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.

    Enjoyed the spa in my room, was a cold night so the electric blanket came in handy. Short on time so didn't make it to the heated pool. Only a short walk to the shops and beach. Will definitely recommend to my friends and family.
