Hot Water Beach is part of the Coramandel Pennisula on New Zealand's North island. Its a stunningly beautiful area and Gail and Trevor Knight were delighful hosts - friendly and welcoming. Our bedroom with private bathroom was tastefully furnished with magnificent views of the beach, especially the hot water springs at low tide. A lovely breakfast was served outside on... more

We had a wonderful break with Trevor and Gail, booking for two nights and staying three. The accommodation was clean, comfortable with wonderful views over the bay. Breakfasts were excellent with a different menu every morning and the hospitality was beyond our expecations. Highly recommended. Ann and Rob Warren more

We found this wonderful b&b with the help of the owners of The Summer House in Kerikeri (another outstanding b&b) and we were really thrilled with it. It's situated above and close to the beach and the views are glorious. The breakfasts were extremely good and plentiful and when warm enough were taken out on the deck overlooking the sea.... more

We were lucky enough to stay here for our wedding anniversary. The location is breathtaking and the accommodation superb. Although this was the most expensive place we stayed on our New Zealand trip it was worth every cent. Our room was huge with a glorious view over the bay (see photo) and the bathroom was enormous. Unfortunately it wasn't warm... more

At the recommendation of an Auckland B & B owner, we contacted Gail and Trevor, proprietors of the Hot Water Beach B & B, who very kindly agreed to put us up on short notice for 1 night. Wish we could have stayed longer! Walked on the beach, drank wine at sunset while watching intrepid surfers working the waves, slept... more

We stayed here for 2 nights in February and thought it was excellent. Gail and Trevor who run the B&B were very welcoming and did everything they could to make us feel at home. Ten minutes after arriving we were drinking wine with Gail on the beautiful terrace as she talked us through the best things to do locally. And... more

We recently enjoyed 4 nights here, and we have to say that it was the most complete B&B experience.The location, facilities, and most of all, the hosts,Trevor and Gail, will make your visit one to remember. The location is to die for, the breakfasts, too good, the wine shared with your hosts on the deck in the afternoon, decadent to... more

My wife and I spent our final two days of our honeymoon in the company of Gail and Trevor at their excellent (and very clean) B & B at Hot Water Beach. Although this was back in 2001, it was the perfect ending to our trip to New Zealand. Gail and Trevor (& Ralph) made us feel like part of... more

I have travelled to over 90 countries and have yet to find a more wonderful place to spend a few days. My wife and I planned on spending only a night at Hot Water Beach, but ended up staying for 4! The views are out of this world. The Beach only a stones-thrown from the house. The sea lapping on... more
