Our People

Kia Ora, pronounced kee aura, is a greeting of our Maori people. It means literally "be well/healthy" and is translated as an informal "hi", and it is also signifies agreement with a speaker at a meeting.

We welcome you to Paihia, known as the ‘jewel’ in the Bay of Islands in New Zealand with our Tanoa Paihia Hotel accommodation.

The Tanoa Hotel Group is united by true family values shared by every one of our people. The South Pacific culture embedded in our organisation epitomises the warm, friendly and welcoming nature of those from this region.

Our employees provide the level of professionalism you expect. All Tanoa employees undergo comprehensive continuous and ongoing training to ensure their success.
