The comfortable bed was definitely a highlight of our stay, along with the good location. However, during our visit, the room felt hot and stuffy at night without the air conditioning on. On a positive note, the balcony overlooking the bay was lovely and provided a relaxing space for meals. The large and well-equipped room, complete with a separate kitchen and laundry, was also a great advantage. Although the accommodation was located up a steepish hill from the town, it wasn't an issue for us.
the overgrown vegetation obstructed the views from the apartment, meaning we could only enjoy the scenery when standing up. The construction noise from the neighboring property was also quite bothersome.

Stayed at The Sails. Free WiFi, AC, and a garden with a terrace. Had a patio, flat-screen TV, and great dining area. Relaxed in the garden. Lovely seating area and garden views. The nearby Russell Museum was interesting.
Oh yeah, the garden was just sooo horrible.

We had a great time at The Sails in Russell. Our stay was for a week, and we were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and modernity of the apartment. The quiet hillside location provided a nice setting with plenty of bird life to enjoy. The deck offered a beautiful view of the harbor, perfect for relaxing. The owners and cleaning staff were friendly and helpful. The spacious room had a separate kitchen/laundry area and was tastefully decorated. We loved the well-stocked kitchen and the spacious shower. Despite the uphill walk to the apartment, it was manageable and offered sightings of wildlife along the way. a lovely place to stay.
Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.

Located on a picturesque hillside, the apartment offers a tranquil setting with a view of the sea and the Russell township. It is conveniently within walking distance to the main shopping strip, making it easy to explore the town center. The spacious and tastefully decorated room is complemented by a well-stocked kitchen and a spacious shower. guests have the opportunity to observe local birdlife, such as Weka and fantails, while enjoying their private deck.
Although the apartment provides a serene retreat, the property's soundproofing is outdated, resulting in some noise disturbances from the upstairs area.

The owners and cleaning lady were lovely. The property was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with every convenience on hand. The view from our room and private deck was stunning, overlooking the bay with beautiful trees. The location was close to Flagstaff lookout with magnificent views.

Beautiful views over the town! Enjoyable walk to town center. Nicely furnished and clean suite. Very nice bathroom. Good view of the harbor from the deck. Easy walking distance to shopping strip. Owners were very pleasant and helpful. Lovely deck to sit outside and enjoy the view.
TV or radio noise audible from above in the evening. Challenging parking space.
