About this property

Luxury boutique apartment on the waterfront in the heart of Russell town

A waterfront sanctuary with sweeping views across Russell Harbour and Paihia.

This luxury three-bedroom apartment spans two stories and is designed for effortless coastal living.

Upstairs, a private bedroom and ensuite offer a quiet retreat. Downstairs, two more bedrooms, a second bathroom, and a light-filled open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area flow seamlessly onto front and back decks, ideal for morning coffee or evening wine in the sea breeze.

Set above the shops and having cafés, bars, and the waterfront on your doorstep, the central location combines convenience with a sense of privacy and calm.

Russell offers the perfect mix of history, nature, and coastal charm. Spend your days dining by the sea, exploring nearby wineries, walking local tracks, or heading out on the water with a dolphin cruise or kayak tour. Cultural landmarks like Flagstaff Hill and Pompallier Mission are a short walk or tour away, and the area’s golden beaches are just minutes from your door.

Your host, Christine, brings years of experience in welcoming guests and is always on hand to ensure your stay is smooth and enjoyable.

Fantastic stay. Location was superb as were the accommodations. In the heart of Russell so everything was no more than a 5 minute walk. Beds were comfy and we really liked the decor as well. We can’t wait to come back.
