Unbelievable view on the sea through a really nice terrasse and outside area. From there, you can just walk on a quiet neighborhood beach. Appartments are really well done and equipped with everything needed. Great place for me to go diving from Tutukaka, a few km's away.

The location was absolutely stunning, right on the beachfront with breathtaking views of both the sunset and sunrise. The room's decor was incredibly cozy, featuring high-quality appliances. The bathroom was spacious, and the outdoor deck area with seating was perfect for relaxation. We would definitely return.

The whole experience is just so relaxing. The views to the open ocean, the waves on the beach, the hills above nestle you in. It is cosy and warm, the linen is lovely. The shower has great pressure. The fridge has the basics and fresh bread is delivered to the door.

Stunning view, secluded location, accommodation was very comfortable with lots of extras available (eg kayaks, private beach access, snorkels, dressing gowns, slippers, sauna...), breakfast was top quality, more than enough and freshly delivered each morning.

Amazing location right on the beach, really enjoyed the hot tub taking in the view. Very clean with everything we needed, lots of thoughtful touches. Loved the torches for our Kiwi walk in the evening, wonderful activity and so special we got to see them! Great communication with the host, would definitely stay again and recommend. Thanks again for a great stay!

I've stayed here many time and love the location. Waipu has one of the most perfect long beaches in Northland. Some will disagree but it a great place. The Cabins are right on the beach and perfect for evening walks or summer swims, or surf. Also highly recommend the cove cafe and restaurant right across the road.

We love the Duke of Marlborough, amazing spot right on the water in Russell, love that you can have a dip in the sea as soon as you walk out the front door and can then order food and drink from the outdoor tables right on the beach. The history being incorporated into the asthetic of the hotel is great and makes the rooms interesting as well making it a great place to dine. It's like going back in time. Food is excellent and we really appreciated the live music outside most evenings.
