BAY OF ISLANDS IS MAGIC AND THIS PLACE HAS THE BEST VIEW AND THE BEST FOOD!!!

We spent quality time determining where to stay in Bay of Islands and this was time well spent. The panoramic view from the living room is breathtaking and is accompanied alternatingly by classical music and classic rock, or your preference, whatever will enhance your pleasure. Your host, Peter Meier, has seriously impressive credentials and provides a welcoming home where the beauty of the land and his dinners are impossible to forget. (We declared our dinner at Cliff Edge to be our favorite meal of 2017! If you stay, you must request a dinner, you will not regret it!) Honestly, if you have a car, do not bother to stay in Paihia as Cliff Edge is merely a few minutes away but seems worlds apart. This place has a unique sense of serenity and charm that is unforgettable. And Charlie!! The sweet house mascot will somehow elevate your experience even more… We hope to see Peter and Charlie again soon!!

WONDERFUL

We stayed for while attending a nearby conference. Pete (the owner) was friendly and very generous. The home is perfectly positioned to make the most of the beautiful views. It’s layout works very well for both the single traveller and small groups.

TOTAL RELAXATION

Amazing property, out of this world spectacular views, awesome decor. Peter made us feel totally welcome and pampered. Outstanding meal - prepared especially for us. A beautiful serene and relaxing atmosphere. The whole place is to die for!!! Would recommend to anyone if they wanted to get out of the "rat race" for a few days. Any of the rooms have spectacular views and king size beds with top of the line linens.

INCREDIBLE HIDDEN GEM

Peter was a wonderful host and excellent chef. The view from our room- the Okiata- was spectacular! We would definitely stay here again. Dining with Peter is a must - he made our visit to the Bay of Islands exceptional.

Cliff Edge was recommended to us by friends in AU who know the hospitality industry. We have had the most amazing culinary experience here at Cliff Edge with our host and chef extraordinaire Peter. He prepared 2 dinners for us and our accommodation in his lodge has been superb! Our view of the Bay Islands from our room is worth the trip and don't miss out on dinner! All rooms have a spectacular view
