At Forest Waters BnB, guests will experience a harmonious indoor-outdoor flow in our home, where the SHARED kitchen and SHARED dining and living area seamlessly transition to a covered barbecue space with an open fire. We can accommodate up to six guests in total: one bedroom with a queen bed and private bathroom on the ground floor, and two additional bedrooms on the first level—one with a king bed and another with two single beds that share a bathroom. Situated along the tourist route, this hideaway offers tranquility away from the crowds, just 12 minutes from the airport and conveniently located between the serene sands of Paihia and the vibrant atmosphere of Kerikeri. Guests can take advantage of the tennis court and unwind in the spa to rejuvenate the mind and body. Forest Waters Bungalow guests will enjoy a private bedroom and bathroom, along with access to a shared kitchen and living area. Relax in the outdoor shared living space and bar, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. Step outside to discover beautifully landscaped gardens featuring a designated vegetable garden.

This hideaway is away from masses but within easy reach at just 13 minutes from the airport and midway between the tranquil sands of PAIHIA and cosmopolitan KERIKERI.
