The house is beautiful, super new, beautifully decorated with high quality facilities. Location is top just in front of Buffalo beach and walking minutes to the wharf and restaurants in town. Hosts are top and make everything to ensure a super experience. The breakfast is a combination of high quality and experience on the second floor balcony facing the sea. Car parking inside the private garage, perks on the fridge like cheese, and some snacks. Perfect b&b experience - state of the art of hosting

Staying at The Waterways Boathouse was the highlight of our trip to Whitianga. Our hosts, Grant and Robyn are an absolute delight and the welcome was warm and genuine. Our self-contained bedroom with ensuite was beautifully appointed and the bed was extremely comfortable. We shared use of a kitchen and sitting room with another guest and appreciated being able to make tea and coffee when we liked. The included breakfasts were sumptuous. We loved sitting, with a wine in hand, watching the sun set over the waterway. We’ve travelled extensively and this place is hard to beat. We are so very pleased we stumbled across it and can’t wait until we visit again. Do yourself a favour and book The Waterways Boathouse.

Truly magical location, how beautiful it was to fall asleep to the waves and to wake to the sunrise right on the beach. Incredibly comfortable beds, rooms and overall motel. Loved being able to walk to everywhere we needed - especially the restaurants nearby and the fish and chip shop just around the corner.
