Set in Paihia and only 1.2 km from Te Ti Bay Beach, Allegra House offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. With garden views, this accommodation provides a balcony. This 4-star bed and breakfast offers private entrance. Heinz & Brita were the most gracious hosts. The room had everything we needed for our stay, very comfortable, and the view from the balcony was stunning! The Allegra House was a close walk to everything Paihia, and they have a cute little shortcut path down the hill. The breakfast & homemade bread was delicious ~ so much to choose from to start your day. We would definitely come back to Paihia & stay at the Allegra House again.
