Bounty Motel

About us

Bounty Motel in Paihia is a well-located, flexible, and comfortable accommodation option designed to support both business and leisure travellers, making it an excellent choice for conference organisers seeking practical facilities in the heart of the Bay of Islands. Situated just a short walk from Paihia Beach and the waterfront, the property offers a convenient base for delegates who want easy access to local attractions, restaurants, and transport while attending meetings or corporate events. One of the key advantages for conference planners is that Bounty Motel features an on-site conference room capable of hosting up to 40 people. This dedicated space provides a convenient setting for small to mid-sized meetings, workshops, training sessions, and presentations. For organisers seeking a venue that allows accommodation and meeting facilities to be arranged within the same property, Bounty Motel is a practical and cost-effective option. The venue’s scale makes it ideal for intimate corporate gatherings, executive retreats, or multi-day team workshops where attendees can stay on-site and move easily between sessions and their rooms. The motel offers a selection of well-appointed studio rooms and spacious one- and two-bedroom units, many of which include kitchenettes or full kitchen facilities. This setup provides added convenience for delegates staying multiple nights, giving them more flexibility and comfort compared to traditional hotel rooms. Each unit is designed with functionality in mind, offering comfortable bedding, modern amenities, and a relaxed, quiet environment—important elements for guests who need to rest after full days of meetings or travel. Location is one of Bounty Motel’s strongest features. Being only a couple of minutes’ walk from the Paihia Wharf makes it ideal for incorporating leisure activities into conference itineraries. Popular Bay of Islands experiences—such as cruises, sailing, island tours, and sightseeing trips—are all within immediate reach. This is especially valuable for companies wanting to combine business objectives with team-building or recreational components. Restaurants, cafés, shops, and beachfront dining options are also close by, giving delegates plenty of choices without requiring transport or additional planning. The motel also provides practical amenities that are essential for smooth conference operations. These include free on-site parking, complimentary unlimited WiFi, daily housekeeping, and helpful staff who are familiar with supporting both leisure and corporate guests. Many organisers appreciate the ability to accommodate their group in one property while still maintaining a relaxed and informal atmosphere, especially in a resort-style destination like Paihia. Because the motel is smaller than large hotels or resorts, conference groups often benefit from a more personalised, attentive level of service. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, allowing organisers to build a strong working relationship with staff and ensuring any requests—whether for catering coordination, special room arrangements, or activity bookings—are handled quickly and efficiently. Overall, Bounty Motel offers a balanced combination of convenience, comfort, and functional meeting facilities, making it a strong contender for conference planners who value central location, affordable quality accommodation, and an on-site meeting room for up to 40 people. Its position in the heart of Paihia also offers the opportunity to enhance a business event with memorable Bay of Islands experiences, creating a productive and enjoyable setting for both organisers and participants.
