Bellrock Lodge, hotel in Russell

Situated within less than 1 km of Long Beach and 2.2 km of Tapeka Point Beach, Bellrock Lodge features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Russell.

It is in a great location which gives privacy, great views including sea views. Only a few minutes walk to the Russell seafront and a slightly longer walk to Long Beach on the other side. It was very modern and was equipped with everything you need from cooking essentials to shoe polish towel. A lot of attention to detail. The owners are very friendly. Great stay and we would always book it again!

Horse Shoe Manor, hotel in Russell

Situated 19 km from Opua Forest, Horse Shoe Manor offers 3-star accommodation in Paihia and has a garden. This beachfront property offers access to free WiFi and free private parking.

Large area with a great outdoors space. Definitely a great place to stay if you are visiting the bay of islands, which was one of my favorite places in New Zealand. We had one room with a lot of area, and another with very little area, so that was interesting.

The Pacific Room, Tapeka Point, hotel in Russell

The Pacific Room, Tapeka Point, a property with a garden and a terrace, is set in Russell, 200 metres from Tapeka Point Beach, 2.8 km from Long Beach, as well as 1.2 km from Flagstaff Hill.

Everything. I stayed here the weekend of the swim race from Paihia to Russel and it was the perfect place to relax. The room has everything you need for a great stay, the area was really quiet, the bed is the comfiest I've slept on anywhere, and, being such a hot weekend, I loved that the room stayed pleasantly cool which made sleeping a lot easier and more comfortable. Bridget was an absolutely wonderful host and helped to create the perfect stay. A bonus was being right next to Tapeka Point for great swimming the next day. Thanks Bridget :)
