Ida
High on the ridge between Long beach and Russell town, our one bed apartment offers guests privacy, peace and comfort. With a comfy super-king bed, seperate lounge and a huge deck to take in the afternoon sun you are sure to enjoy your stay with us. We are just a short walk from town with all the restaurants and cafes and even closer to the beach (it is hilly). We are part of a 7ha bird sanctuary so no pets and no parties allowed. Undercover parking provided.
Ida has spent most of her life travelling seeking adventure and fun all over the world. Irish by birth she has made Russell home base for the last 15 years. Hosting is a new venture which means she will try harder than ever to make guests feel welcome.
Russell and the surrounding bay of Islands area has been attracting travellers since travelling became a thing.
