My husband and I stayed at Sanctuary Palms for 2 nights at the very end of a 3-week trip traveling around the South and North Islands. I had been there in 1986 and wanted to share many of my experiences with my husband (who was my boyfriend back then). Paihia and the Bay of Islands were definately on our must see list. We booked the Moulin Rouge apartment and it was wonderful! Perched high above the the town, it offered breathtaking sunrises each morning and the sights and sounds of the town and water activity below in the evenings as the sun set. We highly recommend Sanctuary Palms for anyone looking for private luxury and outstanding amenities. There are so many activities available to tourists here. One stands alone, however - sailing on the R. Tucker Thompson. We spent 5 and a half hours on this working tall sailing ship. It was definately one of the most enjoyably, relaxing days during our time in New Zealand.

The apartments were in a spectacular location, but up a steep narrow road and driveway. Not good for walking into the town as there is no footpath and it's very steep on the way back. The room was well set up with a small kitchenette but the dining options in the Paihia township were outstanding. Don't bother cooking! There are endless possibilities for things to do in and around Paihia - the most interesting is to get across the bay to Russell.

We have travelled extensively in NZ and worldwide. This accomodation would be the poorest value for money we have ever had. It was heavily discounted from $650+/night to around $290 and quite frankly it is $150/night accomodation. The place is very dated, the are no sea views as shown in photos, the fittings are very modest, there are broken window latches and some of the windows have no blinds or curtains. The TV and sky operations are quite challenging and if you need Netflix you need to log into your own account (not a lot of help for overseas tourists). There are a lot of sites in the area that are much better value and we would recommend you shop around, this place is very, very, average.

Central location although a difficult walk up a steep hill. The overall amenities were good. The air conditioner in the bedroom didn’t work and footsteps from the apartment above were noisy. THe curtains in the bedroom didn’t fit and looked like they were second hand. The car parks were very tight.

The view from the balcony was amazing. Thank you for the little extras in the bathroom and we loved the pod coffee machine.
Comfy couch and easy access to wifi.
We got the hang of airing the rooms, tricky in the wind.
Thank you.

This place is not a 4 star hotel. We paid almost $AUS700pn for the Pacifica suite but got something labelled 'room 4' - there is no way of knowing if this is what you paid for... The entry to our suite was a single damaged painted door in the garage. Our car park was in the weather at the side of the garage, narrow and next to a vertical drop. The 'suite' was musty with dust on many surfaces, curtains had tape holding them together. They provide a dehumidifier... The balcony was small and south facing, the plants almost dead and the bbq grubby. The 'ocean' view is a tiny glimpse sideways when standing on the balcony. Generally the place has not had an upgrade for at least 30 years. Do not stay here ....

We liked the space, and the view of the bay from the penthouse level. I think when this property was first built it would have indeed been 'luxury', but to describe it that way now, with the passing of time, is a little bit of a stretch. The decor and maintenance needs attention, and to have entertainment options running on wifi that does not cope, is poor. We did enjoy our time there, but for us the 'luxury' tag did not fit reality.
