Lodge Eleven is a clean, well-equipped hostel just two minutes' walk from the sandy beach, and ten minutes' walk into the centre of Paihia and the wharf, the base for a wide range of boat trips including the famous Cream Trip.
Each room has an en-suite and all bedding is provided. Downstairs is a well-equipped kitchen, and a lounge with games, books, and TV. As well as an indoor dining room, there is a covered outdoor dining area, which is great on a lovely day. This hostel is open to anyone but to avoid a nightly surcharge you need a YHA membership.
Also within walking distance from the hostel is the historic St. Paul's church, a range of bush walks, and canoes for hire on the beach. A good day tramp is to go through the bush-clad hills behind Paihia to Opua and return along the coastal walkway visiting several lovely little coves.
