Catherine is not only a charming person, but also extremely gracious and helpful. From the old but well renovated house you have a wonderful view. The room was very nice and spacious. We enjoyed the lovely continental breakfast with warm croissants.

Sea view lodge is at the end of a narrow road on Bluff Hill and when you get there you are looking out over Hawkes Bay albeit with a new hotel just beneath you. However this does not spoil the ambience of sitting out on the balcony looking at the sea whilst being in the middle of the famous Napier... More

I can highly recommend this wonderful place. Catherine and Evert were so welcoming and not only provided transport to and from the airport but to the Planetarium too which was 4 km from the town centre. Breakfasts on the balcony were delicious and even included heavenly croissants! Very close to Marine Parade; a quick walk down about 80 steps and... More

This charming, victorian home is a wonderful retreat by the sea. Nice view; the beach and main area of Napier are within easy walking distance. Catherine is a gracious host who understands the perfect balance between being available, when needed, and also respecting your privacy. We had the ensuite bedroom, plus the entire 2nd floor to ourselves (since we were... More

When Catherine, one of the hosts, greets you at the door, you feel like you have arrived at your best friends house. Her energy and charisma fill the house and you feel at ease immediately. The rooms are spacious and well appointed and we had the advantage of having the entire place to ourselves. The walk to town is easy... More

This was our second visit to Napier which we enjoyed just as much as the first. Previously we had stayed a bit further out of the town but really liked the fact that this B&B is so close to the centre. Catherine is a very charming host with lots of helpful information. We had the only bedroom with en-suite, which... More

We have stayed here three times now and would't stay anywhere else in napier. Each time we've stayed we have booked the largest double, which has beautiful seaviews but it is still very reasonably priced. The whole property is lovely. The first time we stayed Neil was our host, and the second two times it has been Catherine one of... More

Had a wonderful 2 night break. Catherine and Evert are so friendly and incredibly helpful without being overbearing. From booking our wine tour with vinny (excellent), dropping us off as mission winery for a lovely dinner and putting us in touch with a local mechanic! Our room was very elegant and had lovely views and a huge comfy bed. Living... More

My husband and I stayed here while visiting Napier - the accommodations were great - we were upstairs, and the living room area adjacent to our room made it feel like we had our own apartment - with lovely views from the balcony. Our hosts Catherine and Evert were gracious and accommodating (they even picked us up from the airport,... More
