Welcome to the Base Backpackers Paihia Hostel located in the beautiful Bay of Islands in the North Island of New Zealand.

Located a mere 50 metres from the beach you are in a prime location to enjoy the fantastic surrounds of this holiday hot spot, including the nearby ferry terminal to take you on sight seeing and adventure among the many bays and islands which gave this idylic spot it's very fitting name.

Base offers an array of accommodation choices from dorms to private ensuited rooms, and don't forget the Sanctuary floor dedicated to ladies only which ads a little extra comfort and privacy for ladies who enjoy a touch of luxury.

Base Backpackers are specialists in affordable accommodation and provide this to all their guests without cutting out the service, comfort, cleanliness, modern facilities and the fun atmosphere that makes backpacking such an adventure.
