A great place to stay with the most fantastic view and beautiful balcony for breakfast and drinks. Annemarie and Hans have thought of every small detail in making sure that everything is wheelchair friendly - roll-in shower, hand rails, wide halls and electronic lights and curtains. Their hospitality is also so warm and welcoming and good company too. We would strongly recommend Within The Bays and found Whitianga a beautiful place to stay.

The whole place is wheelchair friendly, even including a short, timbered track into the forest behind, showing off the variety of local tree ferns. The roomy bathroom is well-designed fordisabled people, The comfortable, large bedroom has a private verandah and a wonderful and very restful view.
