Lovely stay at a comfortable property. Marilyn was very responsive and helpful. Our unit was well appointed and the kitchenette had everything we needed. The couch was super comfortable to relax and read or watch tv. The bed was a little worn, but we slept well. The deck is wonderful and gives an excellent view of the sea and the amazing sunrises! The driveway is steep, but there was plenty of space to park. The whole town is walkable from the unit. It gave us great access to food and to the ferry to Russell. We also drove out to the Treaty Grounds, which were amazing to see.

We wanted to end our two week holiday in New Zealand with 4 days in Paihia. We chose Absolute Bliss Apartments because they sounded luxurious, and we weren't disappointed. First of all, Marilyn greeted us on arrival and is an absolute gem. She is kind-hearted, helpful, and sincere, making us feel so welcome. The two fully self-contained apartments sit on the side of a hill, providing a magnificent view of Paihia. The apartments are super spacious, and Marilyn keeps them in immaculate condition. The large balconies and outdoor seating allow you to enjoy the view and serenity of the area on a warm night. Being on a hill means accessing the property via a driveway that may at first appear a little challenging, however the oasis that awaits you is well worth the effort. Parking is available at the top, and a beautiful lift allows you to transport luggage up to the second floor. If you choose to walk up and down the driveway each day as we did, it gets easier with each trip and we gained the bonus of getting to know extra leg muscles we hadn't used in years. The main street in town is right in front of the driveway, and you can enjoy a meal at a nearby restaurant or at the water's edge within minutes. Thanks to Marilyn sharing her home with us, our memories of this holiday will be something we will always treasure. We can't wait to return.

We had a wonderful stay in a perfect location. The view was amazing and the location was quiet, yet it was only a few minutes walk to many shops and restaurants.

Beautiful property with views of the bay and within walking distance of everything in Paihia. The owner, Marilyn, was extremely helpful and accommodating. She booked a boat outing for me in advance of my arrival and even picked me up from the bus stop for an early check-in. An excellent experience from start to finish.

Great location 5 minutes walk to the main wharf where tour boats start and many restaurants. Continental breakfast was excellent. Note that the drive way is very steep with a sharp turn.

The view, accommodations, and the service was spectacular. Marilyn went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Gourmet breakfast on the deck , booking our day trips and going above and beyond to make us comfortable. My wife and I really enjoyed sharing a glass of wine chatting with Marilyn and her friend Ismay. Highly recommend this property.

We stayed 5 nights. Marilyn was very welcoming and helpful. We had lost luggage from our flight and Marilyn couldn't have been more supportive in providing assistance until our suitcase finally arrived. The apartment was was perfect for us. Great views, comfortable and easy walking distance to everything.

The Hostess did a very fine job for such accommodation type. The only one mark less with comfort was the mattress is on the slight softer side, however its' up to individual, some prefer more firm mattress & others are opposite.
The rest of our stay at the property are top notch. Happy to come back when we are in Paihia again

Stunning view from our balcony drive was very steep difficult to both walk and drive up but the view from the top was worth it

You get to the accommodation up the steepest drive you may ever have encountered. You then use an elevator to get to the apartment. But it really is worth it. Fantastic view across the bay. Marilyn is a perfect host, friendly and informative. We were on B&B so she left a continental breakfast in our room the previous evening. Comfortable bed. Quiet accommodation. Really recommended.
