Okiato Views - Russell Holiday Home

Nestled in the heart of the Bay of Islands, this charming 2-bedroom Kiwi-style bach offers a cosy, couples retreat with captivating views of Opua Harbour and the bustling boat traffic in and out of the marina.

From the well-appointed deck, guests can savour a cozy and intimate break in this charming cottage nestled within a friendly and welcoming neighborhood. Bring your togs to make the most of the Bay of Islands' pristine white sand beaches, subtropic climate, and crystal blue water.

If you feel like cooking up something delicious, the well-equipped kitchen has all the essentials. At the end of a busy or chilled day, retreat to Okiato Views for a comfy place to unwind and rest while a TV provides indoor entertainment.

Conveniently within walking distance, Okiato Wharf provides access to Opua via ferry, where visitors can embark on scenic bike rides along the cycle trail to Kawakawa or coastal walks to Paihia. Opua Marina offers more than just a scenic view; it boasts a fabulous café/bar with live music on most weekends. Additional amenities in the area include a General Store, Opua Yacht Club, laundromats, takeaways featuring pizza, and marine retail shops.

Additionally, it’ll only take you a 10-minute drive to reach the charming village of Russell to explore shops, restaurants, and scenic walks. Popular attractions include the nearby Pompallier Mission, or you can book a dolphin spotting cruise, sailing tour or fishing charter.

With its incredible location and picturesque views, this Bay of Islands retreat invites you to experience the best of New Zealand's first capital - Welcome to Okiato Views!

Our stay was wonderful. Easy to access, clean and comfortable. The view from the little deck was beautiful! Quick drive into Russell for all your needs. Only thing that wasn't clear was where to place rubbish on check out but otherwise everything was perfect.
