Improving Environmental Impacts

Pawhaoa was granted an Environment Award in May 2013. We intend to continue with this high standard in years to come.

Enviro-Gold was evidence that Pawhaoa has achieved the pinnacle of responsible tourism practice.

At the time of the award being granted it was said:
"Pawhaoa Bay Lodge has demonstrated their commitment to the highest level in environmental practices, to achieve their award. 
The achievement is testament to how Pawhaoa Bay Lodge has fully integrated environmental sustainability into a quality tourism product."

Paradise – This is a beautiful place to just relax and take in the beautiful surroundings. The beach is pebbly with great swimming right in front of the Villas and one can walk up into the hills or kayak out in the bay or just relax in the lovely environs. Claire and Bill have plenty of local knowledge that they are more than willing to share. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended for a wonderful getaway – We stayed there recently over New Year. The setting is stupendous from the rolling hills behind to the sunsets over the Bay. Lots to do if you are that way inclined or you can sit back, chill and just enjoy
