We stayed at Blue Water for two nights, made to feel very welcome by Paul right from the start. He has a very happy nature and everytime we rang the reception bell, he would appear with a cheery "here I am". He also recommended various sights in Tairua. Our room was clean, cosy and comfortable and we appreciated being able... More

We were looking for a place to stay as the Bach (holiday) home that we had booked through Bachcare was so run down. Paul was welcoming and friendly, and exactly what hospitality is all about. The rooms are spotless and with new furnishings. There were lots of little touches, such as the ability to borrow spades to dig at Hot... More

Paul and tash are wonderful hosts who provided awesome service . Clean and tidy rooms warm and welcoming cant do enough to help you close to the shops. Helped out with local knowledge of Tairua and surrounds. Always pointed us in the right direction and never disappointed.

Paul and his team provide a personalised experience. He was so friendly and helpful and nothing was a problem. Because it was not busy they upgraded us to a bigger room and pre-heated the rooms which was a nice touch. We LOVED the "all you can swim" spa room. The room was very clean and tidy with plenty of space.

Stayed for two nights in February, at the beginning of our trip to NZ. Paul was the perfect host, helpful, cheerful and a mine of local information. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed. Only wish we could have stayed longer!
