There is so much to like about this property. Traveling in May we had a number of options to consider in Russell, and as we were looking for somewhere quiet and tucked away yet close to Russell itself, Kokomo Retreat ticked all our boxes. The apartment itself is spacious, with a large living area, plenty of comfortable seating and a great outlook. The hosts were unobtrusive but readily available and the wider area is an absolute treat with quiet beaches, grassy areas and easy access to walking paths. Highly recommended!

We were welcomed by the lovely Catherine.
Showed to our apartment,what a stunning view and amazing sunsets!.. A very well set out apartment. A few special touches like white robes to wear, hot tub with a view and little chocolates in the fridge for each of us. Our hosts could not have done more for us, even bringing in our washing one day when it started to rain...if We get back to Russell one day, we will definitely look up Bellrock....thanx Cathrine and Stuart.

Stunting location and friendly people with beautiful track walks and the scenery and views are spectacular. We had dinner at Sage restaurant at Paroa Vineyard which I highly recommend for not the fabulous food but the views are beautiful too and the service was outstanding. The scenery is amazing and so are all the trails a must do and definitely a beautiful place to visit

Russell is heavenly.
Russell is heavenly. It is so beautiful and we had the best time. What a gem this part of the world has access to! The oysters were amazing. The food/experience and service at the Duke of Marlborough was first rate. The sunsets were surreal. The visit to Urupakapuka by ferry led to an amazing day of exercise and adventure, we had a heavenly swim in one of the islands isolated beaches by ourselves. What a day!🥰

If you are around Bay of islands I suggest to not stay at Paihai and go to Russell. Smaller, quieter and much nicer. There is a ferry across to Paihai if you want to go there. Long Beach is not to be missed and we enjoyed the Flagstaff walk too.JaneSwitzerland - 10Scored 10

Nice & quiet in the middle of winter.Gets very busy at summertime so booking ahead is essential. Always good food at The Duke restaurant & great front rooms with a balcony with sea views & a view of the street, great for a couple of drinks before heading to the bar!ShaneNew Zealand - 10Scored 10
Russell was so cool.
Russell was so cool. Easy to get around and so lovely in Winter as very few people. The history is interesting and the people were mostly friendly. Next time we will stay 3 nights as we really relaxed and book a trip to Sage restaurant for a special treat.VirginiaNew Zealand - 10Scored 10
It is a beautiful location and peaceful.
It is a beautiful location and peaceful. There are enough cafe's / restaurants for 4 or 5 days but plenty more in nearby resorts. The one thing you need to realise about NZ is that "eateries" general cafe's and take aways open early 6 or 7 am but close early too, 3 or 4pm. In general the stop serving an hour before. A lot of restaurants open 12 to 3pm and 5 to 8pm. If you want to eat late you need to check on line for places. Very few apart from Asian places take orders after 9pm. Good supermarket. Lovely sea and beaches around. Public loos are quite prolific in NZ including beaches with changing rooms. The whole country top to bottom is wort a visit. Low traffic levels apart from cities. Lot of mountain roads.

It’s a short easy walk into Russell. The breakfast provided was gourmet and plentiful, beautifully cooked by Peter and presented by Greg. They offered helpful information about the area including great eating out options and excursions. Highly recommend this for your stay in beautiful Russell.

MauroBelgium - From £72.45 per night8.8Scored 8.8FabulousRated fabulous· 1,472 reviewsI really loved staying here - a very tasteful refurbishment with nice details such as the lovely bathroom tiles and tap handles. I liked the New Zealand art everywhere and the photos in the hallways of Russell township. Staff were great and a free room upgrade were the icing on the cake. It is a beautiful building worth staying in for anyone visiting the town.JanelleNew Zealand
