Imagine saying “I do” with the sparkling waters of the Bay of Islands right outside your window. Located at the end of the Paihia wharf, Charlotte's Kitchen offers a modern, stylish setting perfect for couples who want a wedding reception that’s both unforgettable and relaxed. This seaside restaurant sits directly over the water, giving you and your guests breathtaking views that create a truly magical atmosphere.
Charlotte’s Kitchen features a fresh, contemporary restaurant that opens onto a sunlit deck perched over the sea. It’s ideal for intimate to medium-sized weddings, comfortably hosting up to 100 guests. The space is thoughtfully arranged to include separate areas for a bar, live music, and a dance floor—so your celebration flows naturally from dining to dancing.
One of the standout features is the adaptable deck.
