"We will never forget our time at Within the Bays! Annemarie and Hans made our wedding day more perfect than we could have possibly imagined. We had no family here with us from the U.S., but we felt as we were at home. Wonderful location, incredible food, breathtaking views, fine wine and some great vinyl.

Thank you forever.
Brett and Brenda, California, USA

"We don't want to leave this place and that's a clear indication of how much we love it! Thank you greatly for making our first night in NZ so special!

Anna and Dan Hall, London

"Was soll man sagen ? Dieses B&B war während unserer 4-wöchigen Neuseelandreise das beste, in dem wir übernachtet haben und wir haben ausschließlich derartige Unterkünfte ausgewählt.

Gabi und Thies, Deutchland

“We could not have picked a better place to end our vacation in N.Z. It felt like staying at a friend’s place. Annemarie and Hans, thank you very much for making us feel so welcome. If we can we will definitely be back again!”
Annemie and Marcel, The Netherlands

“Spectacular views, incredibly generous hospitality, wonderful food and wine, cosy and comfortable accommodation, 5 days of sunshine………You have it all! Thank you Hans and Annemarie for your generosity – you are fabulous hosts. We will be back and will definitely recommend “Within the Bays” to any friends heading to the beautiful Coromandel.
Gill and Paul, Australia

"A big hug to Annemarie & Hans! They gave us a service which cannot be paid with money. They let us feel like home during our wedding days. Thanks again for everything! Andreas and Sabrina, Germany

ps. You can always rely on the weather forecast of Hans!

Within the Bays is probably the best B&B we have ever stayed in - anywhere in the world! Hans and Annemarie go out of their way to make you feel at home here. They are more like a part of your family than hosts.

We had a fantastic time!

Tween. Paul, JeYen and JeHan, Canberra, Australia

"We have just had a fantastic 2 days here, your hospitality and kindness, not to mention Hans' humour, have made our stay really great! We both thought the South Island had it all, now we know of somewhere even better. Take care and thank you SO much."

Philip and Tina, London UK

"This was just the break from the city that we needed.

Thanks for making us so comfortable!

"We hebben genoten! Het lijkt hier wel Villa Felderhof al kennen jullie dat niet, denk ik. Erg bedankt voor alles. Top!"
