The pictures really don’t do justice for how beautiful this place and area is. It was quiet, had everything you needed, the view is stunning, it is short walk to beach and to walk to the falls! Highly recommend!

A peaceful, green stay

This was such a lovely place to stay, in a gorgeous location. I wish I could have booked a longer stay. The outdoor area was full of greenery and a perfect place to kick back with a book or conversation. The hostel had a cozy feeling, and also walking distance to a nice waterfall hike and to the beach.

We unfortunately stayed just for one night at this beautiful Hostel. We really enjoyed the time there. The check-in was easy and uncomplicated. Geoff is a really friendly person. The walk to the beach is about 15min. We could definitely recommend this hostel!

Ist ein schönes Hostel, aber man kann auch normale ‚Hotelzimmer‘ mit Bad haben. Ca 15min vom Beach und in der Nähe der Wasserfälle.

Ein kleines Juwel in einem ruhigen Seitental

Das Hostel liegt in einem bewaldeten Seitental, etwa 10Min zu Fuss vom Strand. Unser Zimmer (mit Bad) war das schönste unserer bisherigen NZ-Reise (nach 1 Monat). Wir fühlten uns darin sehr wohl. Schade, hatten wir nur 1 Nacht gebucht. Am Morgen besuchten uns Hennen des Hostels auf der Terrasse. Ihre Eier bereicherten schliesslich unser Frühstück

Wished I could have stayed longer!

It was such a lovely stay, I wished I could have stayed longer! Could easily do a week there, the short distance is totally worthwhile for the breathtaking views. Everyone was friendly and welcoming even the pets.

At Piha Beachstay, the staff were very friendly and helpful especially Jeff #1 who went out of his way to fixed a surfboard so I can rent it and Jeff #2 who was hospitable making checkin easy. The room was clean and spotless-thanks to the amazing housekeepers! The bed and pillows were so comfortable. The outdoor patio area had comfy chairs for sitting out and a trampoline for a fun bounce! A shared kitchen equipped with everything you need to cook including a good size fridge and free range eggs (for purchase but a nice touch!). The location was perfect just steps away to breathtaking Kitekite Falls and 10-15 minutes walk to famous sites such the Lion Rock, Piha surf beach and the Tasman Sea Lookout. I would definitely stay here again when I return to Piha about 45 minutes west of Auckland City.
