Holiday rentals with a hot tub in Russell

Joanne’s place is a great place to stay, with lots to do, including being able to connect various streaming accounts to the tv to keep you occupied throughout the night. We didn’t spend too much time in the room as we wanted to get around and sight see as well as going to our event. The recommendations that she has left in a book had helped us out too, with restaurants and things to do locally. Overall, great experience with a lovely host

This is a an awesome house for groups. There was a cyclone when we visited and the host was so kind and helpful. It has so many games and things for the kids to do! Poor table and darts for the adults and table tennis table for the kids was definitely a God send on those very stormy days. It is the most peaceful setting and we loved the spa pool. We enjoyed our stay so much, as the house is equipped for entertaining. Thanks to the host for helping us out with extra things during the storm! Much appreciated.

Great location - walkable to Paihia waterfront but away from the bustle of the main road. It was very clean and had everything we needed including kitchen utensils. The bathroom was nice and spacious with the spa being a very nice bonus.

From the warm welcome, to the amazing views, everything was prefect. The peace and quiet was just what we needed. The homemade lemon curd and jams with the freshly made bread were a lovely touch. We loved every moment and cannot wait to come back with the rest of the family.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Yurt! The peaceful surroundings, tucked away in nature, made it the perfect escape. The yurt itself was beautifully set up—comfortable, clean, and full of thoughtful details that made us feel right at home. Stargazing from the hot tub under the clear night sky was truly unforgettable and easily the highlight of our trip. Wairua Escape is a magical spot—we left feeling so relaxed and would return in a heartbeat. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and tranquil getaway.

Malcom and Penny were so welcoming and we had the most wonderful stay! The perfect location, hidden in the hills with only a quick spin in to town. Really enjoyed our weekend, couldn’t recommend their place more, a beautiful home!

What a gem! With almost 360 degree views of the amazing landscape, Jon's place was special. We enjoyed our stay with our 7 & 3 year old, as the house was well catered for a family. Lots of games, great TV & sounds system but the Hot tub was the overall winner for us all. Looking forward to another stay here soon

Was a lovely stay with a lovely view! Peter and Jacqueline were great hosts and very responsive 😊

Thank you to Silv and Steve for a wonderful getaway! Silv and Steve were very welcoming, kind and responsive. The prepared pizza dough on arrival as well as being invited to explore the wood shop and feed the alpacas was a special touch. The cabin was very clean and tidy. It was beautifully finished with lovely woodwork by Silv and Steve. The wood fired pizza oven and hot tub was an extra touch. The marked walks on the property were fun to explore. The view was lovely. Overall fantastic stay. We will definitely stay if we head back to the area. Would highly recommend it!
