“A lovely bushland property. Ideally situated for a peaceful and quiet time. Easy access to town and beaches. Friendly and helpful owners. I had a lovely stay and highly recommend these apartments. Not suitable for disabled though. Hilly, steps and so on. Can’t fault otherwise. “
“The apt was really good, the location, the facilities, the view outside, and of cx the lovely and helpful owner Jo.. me and my friends enjoyed it very much. We’ll definitely look forward going to rent Sublime Apt again.”
“We have stayed at Sublime Apartments a few times now and have always found the hospitality provided by Mark and Jo execllent. Highly recommended stay in the Bay of Islands”
“What can I say about Sublime Apartments. It’s a great getaway and only about 4 hours from Auckland in the beautiful Bay of Islands. We have stayed there on two occasions now and both times were totally relaxed and content with the rooms. 3 minutes from the waterfront and main center and high up in the hills for a great view. The proprieters go out of their way to help you and nothing is to difficult for them. We will be going back many times for sure. “
“everything was great. Our stay was far too short but we were trying to fit a lot in for our friends who had not been to N.Z before. Malcolm and I are going to come back and stay for a much longer time hopefully not too long away. Thank you Jo for your cheery outlook and wonderful accommondation Dawn “

“The location and hospitality was excellent. Mark was kind and understanding.Only a problem with the furniture inside and outside which was not up to the safety standards, required for my disabled daughter,which was addressed by Mark.I will be visiting again in the future. Thankyou Susan and Emma.”
“I only stayed 2 nights but I’d definitely come back. The rooms were clean and tidy and in a peaceful setting – loved the gazebo! Mark, our host, was friendly but not intrusive, and his willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty far exceeded my expectations. Thanks so much!”
“We had a lovely time – such a relaxed and beautiful part of Paihia to stay.

“As a family of four we were pleased with our choice of accomodation while staying in beautiful Paihia. Sublime apartments are in a lush, quiet area and only a few minutes walk to the waterfront. Our apartment was spotless and very comfortable. We made good use of the b’que & pool after many fun/busy days exploring the Islands. Hope one to return to Paihia….. we would definately book again with Sublime! The Davies family…Brisbane”

“We found the reception to the apartments very welcoming and we are looking forward to our free stay sometime in the quiet season. “
“The upper bushview apartment werented was comfy and clean, with lots of room for 2 children & 2 adults. The resident neighbour was friendly and attentive bringing barbeque tools & a plate to us at the bbq area. The children loved the pool which was clean and warm! They spent 3 hours in it over 2 short days… I would have rated a 5* if the bbq area itself was a bit more tidier and cleaner, however overall great for our purposes! A very short 10 min walk (with kids) to Paihia village. Handy! (owners note… we missed a day cleaning the BBQ but will make sure we don’t again:)”
“Fabulous stay!! Very clean well appointed apartment with easy access to Paihia.Would recommend to anyone and stay again. The only problem was that we only had 2 nights to spare to stay there!! “
“We were delighted by the warmth and hospitality offered by Mark and other team members at Sublime Apartments. We wish them all the best for the future and recommend this wonderul place to everyone. Cheers”
“This was an awesome place to stay. We booked a couple of rooms and spent quality time with our friends. This place overlooks bush and is private. Not far from Paihia shops and cafe. Our host – very friendly, made our stay a ‘no fuss’ and an enjoyable one.Thanx Mark! “

“Our stay at sublime apartments was absolutely FANTASTIC. The host Mark was always there to help out if we needed anything. The apartments were great, tidy and clean. Even the cleaners were happy to have a chat about the local area. Would recommend staying to anyone and everyone of all ages. Can’t wait to book back again.”
“Everything was really nice and tidy when we got there so we felt really bad for leaving such a mess behind! The service was excellent so it made the whole stay there very enjoyable. Felt like home! Would go back there to stay if we go back to Paihia again one day”
“No doubt about it, the setting of the apartments is beautifully peaceful andattractive. No traffic noise, justcrickets. The pool, though small, provided a chance to cool off at the end of a hot day and the barbecue facilities were good.Staff were friendly, cheerful and helpful.”

“Bay Of Islands Sublime Apartments, Paihia …Location location…. just a short 5min walk to Paihia’s cafe and bar, shopping town centre. The pool at Sublime is a lovely place to be on a hot summer’s day. The apartments were clean and had everything you need”
“Excellent location, friendly staff and good value for money. Units a bit cosy for 4 people, otherwise very happy with stay there”
“This is the second year we have been able to stay at the Sublime Apartments in Paihia. The facilities were excellent and gave the feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle of weekends like Waitangi while still being in close vicinity to restaurants and night life. Thanks to Mark and the team. Look forward to staying with you next Waitangi weekend.”
“This was an awesome place to stay over the new year period, secluded and surrounded by bush but so close to the main street and town. Apartment itself was all u need and Mark was very accomodating for the amount of guests we had! Thanks alot, hope to see u again. “
“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay – will certainly stay again when we come up again. Quiet and relaxing, but close to centre of town and we loved the tuis singing morning and night. “
“This was the cheapest of the accommodation we’d booked during our two weeks in the North Island and offered great value for money, particularly as it was the Easter holidays.
The manager Mark was super friendly and the accommodation was basic but clean, with a relaxed family feel. After staying in lots of motels where you had to drive to get anywhere, it was great to be able to take a short stroll into town. Being up on a small hill, it was also incredibly quiet at night-time, so we got the best of both worlds. Saving on accommodation meant we treated ourselves to a blow-out meal at one of Paihia’s many fantastic restaurants.
Our young daughter loved the pool and all in all this was a fantastic find for us. If you have particularly high standards, this might not be the place for you, but if you can overlook mismatched cutlery it’s well worth a punt.”
“Sublime is an awesome place to stay. the atmosphere is friendly and we felt like to be right at home, thank you :)”
“We really enjoyed our stay and found all staff we dealt with fantastic will come again”
