Lovely courtside room. Only problem was the ants that filled the rubbish bin when we were there for only a few hours and the slow reception service. Everything else was great including our evening spa in the rain

Copthorne Bay of Islands feels like paradise. From our room to the pool, spa and restaurant - the layout, service and experience was absolutely breathtaking. Me and my partner had the seafacing room with a balcony and truly enjoyed the views and stay. We will definately be back.

Matthew, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

I enjoyed every part of my stay this time
Ivy, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The staff were generally helpful, but for the price paid, the rooms felt quite dated. I also had an uncomfortable experience when using the microwave in the laundry room to heat milk for my baby — the security staff on Sunday, 8 June gave me a suspicious look and questioned what I was doing. As a parent, this made me feel quite unwelcome. It would be great if all staff, including security, were briefed to approach guests in a more courteous and understanding manner.
Clinton, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Very nice hotel. It is surrounded by nature and quiet. The staff were very friendly.
Estrella, 4-night trip

4/10 Poor

I booked a family double but got put in to 2 separate rooms which made it hard for me to look after my moko ... rooms ddnt gt cleaned daily so rubbish stacked up. Ran out of toiletries it was bad ...
Maide, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Booking in did not go well. Its seems that when the people at the property know that you booked through Expedia, they give you any average room that is outdated, or in poor condition. I had to query the room allocation the next and the staff at the reception said that their was a mistake made. this is not the first time something like this happens. I get the feeling that most properties have a pool of rooms that are put aside for people who book through websites like Expedia. So, these rooms will be very far away from the amenities etc. I was not happy but it was fixed after the fact. This should not be happening,.
Derrick, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Pleasant Stay

We stayed at a king seaview room which has an unobstructed seaview, a deck leads to large lawn area right by the sea which was so beautiful. Not sure about the cleanliness though we found crumbs of food on the floor and one of the pillows have black marks on. The shower over bath dripping water all over the floor from the glass every time you took a shower. Staff are nice and friendly can't complain. Overall we enjoyed ourselves at Copthorne bay of islands.
