Waterfalls Estate - Motel & Campground

On a river in Haruru, a waterfront motel and campground just steps from Bay of Islands and Haruru Falls. Minutes from Paihia Wharf and Paihia Beach, with easy access to the Waitangi Treaty Grounds, Waitangi Golf Club and nearby Opua Forest — perfect for a seaside escape.

This compact, riverfront mini-hotel has 13 guestrooms and campground pitches with a relaxed, homey vibe. Rooms feature kitchenettes with refrigerators and stovetops, private balconies or patios, 32-inch LCD TVs and DVD players, electric kettles and complimentary tea/instant coffee. Cribs and rollaway beds are available on request, making it family-friendly without fuss.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool, fire up the on-site BBQ area, or book local excursions at the tour desk. Laundry facilities and a campground waterfront setting add convenience, while river-breeze mornings set the tone for laid-back days.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property and free self parking onsite. The front desk operates during limited hours and staff can assist with tours and local info.

Self-cater easily with in-room kitchens, stovetops and refrigerators, plus electric kettles for a morning cup with a view. The BBQ area lets you grill local seafood and produce while watching the river.
