    Paradijselijk uitzicht over de baai vanuit een leuk appartement.

    The Retreat is een eenvoudige, comfortabele accommodatie met een paradijselijk uitzicht over de baai. Erg behulpzame en vriendelijke eigenaren, en we kregen bovendien als verrassing een upgrade naar een ruimer appartement. Het bed was super comfy, heerlijk geslapen hier. Alles wat je nodig hebt hier, echt een aanrader. Ook fijn dat er extra handdoeken in de badkamerkast liggen.

    Als we een slak zoeken om zout op te gooien: de waterdruk is niet zoals thuis.

    It has to be the best place I have ever stayed in at Paihia by far.

    The warm welcome from Marcel. It really was like a retreat where the views were stunning.

    There was nothing I did not like about the property
