Holiday rentals with a hot tub in Russell

We had a wonderful stay at John’s place!! The house is amazing and the views of the ocean are just incredible. John’s home is very comfortable and well furnished, and we took advantage of the hot tub and the kayaks - those things made a nice stay even better. We appreciated all of the great outdoor space and the well stocked kitchen (probably the best stocked kitchen we’ve ever had at an Airbnb). John was super host - very responsive, answered all our questions right away and even stopped by with some life jackets for the kayaks. The only small issue we had were some ants in the kitchen when we checked in. John had ant bait available and we used that right away and had no more issues during our stay. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We had a wonderful stay on the river. We stayed at the lodge and it was cozy and beautiful. Anna was responsive and took great care of us. The house is large and has plenty of space for a family or group of friends. We took the kayaks down the river to the beach and it was really fun. We had cozy nights by the fire and enjoyed waking up surrounded by the beautiful landscape they’ve created and the sound of birds. The airbnb is also close to a magical bay called Matauri bay. Highly recommend a stay here!

This home is awesome, so close to everything and has everything you need. Unfortunately, the pool heating wasn't playing ball but we were able to take advantage of the spa.

We can’t wait to come back here. We were four couples, two young children. The house and facilities gave everyone plenty of space to relax and enjoy time together. It’s a great space with plenty to do.

A very clean modern comfortable base within walking distance of everything in Russell. Great for a family or a number of couples.

Kay's place was perfect for a couple of night's getaway. She was a very quick communicator and everything was as expected. She kindly left us freshly baked bread, as well as honey and apples from her property. The beds were very comfy and the whole place was well stocked and much more spacious than we expected. Kay's husband James sorted the pizza over for us and we cooked homemade pizzas. The property is private and secluded but just up a driveway from the road. Would highly recommend both the hosts and the property. Would happily stay again or suggest it to friends and family.

This place is absolutely exceptional. Nestled in a breathtaking location, it offers stunning panoramic views that truly captivate the senses. Each vista reveals a stunning tapestry of nature, showcasing vibrant colors and serene landscapes that change with the time of day. I would highly recommend it.

I actually don’t want to give this place away….in essence, it was the most relaxing, gorgeous place to surrender to the everyday stresses of life, hot outdoor spa, cosy log fire place, everything we could have asked for. Great local restaurants, easy ferry access and so many things to explore. Thanks ladies, Dal and Greg

The House has incredible views looking out over the bay. It has a great kitchen and living area. The hot tub and pool are large and clean. And the BBQ was an added bonus. Would highly recommend.

beautiful and quiet surroundings. Highly recommended

Beautiful, peaceful location. House was spotless and had everything you needed. Multiple outside zones to enjoy the nature and water views. Super private and only a 7 min drive to the heart of Russell.
