Wonderful Beachfront on Russell Long Beach
A perfect base to explore all of the Bay of Island attractions. The bach is clean, comfortable and well equipped. The view from the deck is stunning and falling asleep to the sound of gentle waves was a real treat.

Just right
Long beach is a beautiful golden sand beach facing East with fabulous views out into the Islands. The house had everything we needed for our 2 night stay. You go to sleep to the sound of the little waves and wake up to bird call. Just lovely.

Why they chose this property

This is a family property bought by by grand parents when there were very few people living at Long Beach. It has been passed down the generations and is now owned by my sister and myself, being a place we both like to escape to whenever time permits.

What makes this property unique

Safe beach for swimming or lie back, relax, and read a book . Expansive
views over the bay.
