About this property

The Gables - Stunning Waterfront Apartment

The Gables Waterfront Apartment is housed in a lovingly restored historic building on the Russell foreshore. Built on whalebone foundations by Joseph England, a shoemaker in 1847, its pitsawn kauri walls could tell a hundred stories.

The luxuriously appointed apartment is 2 storied, with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. There are views of the bay to Waitangi and Paihia. Glorious sunsets, yachting, fishing and boat activity, plunging gannets and the occasional dolphin are just a few reasons to enjoy the historic township of Russell.

The large loft master bedroom enjoys beautiful views from the kingsize bed and the second bedroom features an original brick chimney feature with a Super King bed that can be converted to two singles upon request.

Perfect Property
A delightful and spacious property in a perfect location yards from the sea. The bustle of Russell transformed to perfect tranquility around 22:00 leaving only the sound of the waves lapping on the beach outside. The property was well equipped with everything we needed for a restful break.

In the hub
Great property in the centre of town. Loved the out look and loads of lovely restaurants a stones thrown away. Only slight negative for us was music from downsairs restaurant played from 11am to closing which I guess when staying in town is to be expected. Beautiful property 👌 Thank u

Idyllic & Charming
A fantastic property right in the heart of historic Russell. We felt instantly at home … relaxing, stylish, warm & comfortable. Well equipped kitchen & spacious enough for two couples to enjoy. We dined at The Gables Restaurant (right underneath the apartment) & Hones Garden (right behind the property). Hardly any need for a car as everything is a walk away. Thoroughly enjoyed … thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Bay of Islands Hideaways

Host profile image
Hi I'm Kelly and I run Bay of Islands Hideaways. My husband and I have 3 young children and are lucky enough to call the Bay of Islands our home. I firmly believe when travelling that you truly get to know and appreciate a place so much more when you can stay and experience life like a local. Because of this I love the opportunities that holiday home rentals can provide for both myself and those staying in the houses I look after.
I take care of several properties in the area and get great enjoyment from meeting new people from all over the world and sharing in their experiences of our beautiful area.
As a family we love to get outside as much as possible. Whether its pottering around home in our garden, heading out to the beach or getting out on the water for some fishing

What makes this property unique

Central Russell is on your door step and many attractions and restaurants are within easy, flat walking distance.
