Loved our three night stay. The unit was extremely well appointed making the most of the fabulous views across the bay. The compromise for those views was the steep driveway but we just took the car down the street and parked up when we went out. Everywhere in Russell is easy walking distance from the property including the ferry, and a number of excellent eateries. Would definitely consider stayin again should we return to Russell.

Such an amazing place and wonderful stay! Beautiful view from the bedroom and all the amenities that we needed. Quick responses from the hosts, let us park early and wandered around the quaint little town which was well within walking distance. Would absolutely love to stay again!

This is a wonderful apartment as a base in bay of islands. Russell is a great little town and this apartment is central but with a great view over the town and the sea. If you want to enjoy a sunrise you can lie in bed with the blinds up and it is fantastic. Highly recommend this as a place to stay
