Your private retreat
Genuine Kiwi hospitality with a touch of European flair in a beautiful coastal location at the base of the Coromandel Peninsula
Enjoy your own comfortable bed and breakfast suite with friendly service and a generous homemade breakfast.
Fantail Hill Bed & Breakfast is perfect for a relaxing weekend escape, or taking a few days to unwind and be pampered.
Our two bedroom guest suite is ideal for either a couple, or up to four family and friends travelling together.
Located on the upper floor of our home, you have a lounge/dining, kitchenette and bathroom exclusively for your use. Both bedrooms enjoy expansive sea and hillside views and a place to enjoy the magnificent west coat sunsets.
Secluded, yet close to Thames, we are located in the "Golden Triangle ", just 90 minutes drive from Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga.
We love our guests to relax and enjoy their time at Fantail Hill so have a minimum two night booking requirement.
Organic & Handcrafted
Our focus at Fantail Hill is on a warm welcome and organic homemade produce. We love to create delicious breakfasts for our guests featuring ancient grain sourdough bread (a traditional family recipe passed down from Siegfried’s grandmother), home made muesli, preserves from our own fruit and honey from the local Fantail Hill bees.
We offer a selection of plant based milks (in addition to cow’s milk) plus gluten free bread on request.

Your hosts
We are Siegfried and Carmel plus our loveable Swiss Shepherd dog, Mia.
We have local knowledge of - and can advise you on - nearby Thames and Coromandel Peninsula attractions. We speak both English and German.
Siegfried worked as a Chef and Event Organiser for many years in Europe, always with the dream of running a small B&B in New Zealand.
Carmel is a Kiwi who was working as a Business English coach in Germany when she met Siegfried, they returned to New Zealand together and found a beautiful spot in their favourite region - the Coromandel Peninsula
