Allegra House

Allegra House offers luxury, owner-operated accommodation in central Paihia, perched to capture uninterrupted panoramas over the bay — sweeping across to Russell and down to the township. Guests can relax in comfort with both bed-and-breakfast rooms and a self-contained apartment, all with modern touches and generous space. It’s an appealing option for both international travellers and Kiwis seeking a special stay.

Accommodation Types & Style

• Island View B&B Room – A B&B-style room with breakfast included; light, spacious, with quality furniture and fittings.
• Top Suite B&B Room – A more premium B&B-room option, also styled with modern finishes and views.
• Self-Contained Apartment – For guests wanting more independence; includes modern style, full amenities, plus the option of breakfast as an extra.

Location & Views

The property is located at 39 Bayview Road, Paihia, in the Bay of Islands. It’s set in a raised position, allowing views over the bay, while still being very accessible to the heart of Paihia. It’s about a 7-10 minute walk downhill via native bush to the Paihia Wharf, shops, restaurants, beaches and walking tracks, or approximately 2 minutes by car.

Hosts & Hospitality

Allegra House is run by Heinz and Brita, who are hosts with many years’ experience in tourism and hospitality across New Zealand. Originally from Switzerland and England, they moved to Paihia in 1993. They speak multiple languages (including German and French), and share their knowledge of the Bay of Islands with guests, helping plan meaningful experiences or simply pointing out the best viewpoints locally.
