Situated above the town of Russell, Cloud 9 is blessed with views across both the Pacific Ocean and the Bay of Islands in which Russell nestles.

Fantastic view, quiet, private and clean. Great for a family holiday and not too far from Russell. A great experience all round because care had been taken with the details.
Beautiful home in Russell with breathtaking ocean views. Well furnished and ideally located. Property manager (Bay of Islands Holiday Homes) was very nice, helpful and responsive. Highly recommended.

The location is great, the house is modern and comfortable, views are unbeatable. Unfortunately there was a severe water shortage during our stay, but hosts informed us in advance and there was nothing they could've done about it anyway. So, great experience and highly recommended. Thanks.
