Tryphena Holidays from AU$1,049

Decent little chalet - clean with basic amenities. A but musty, recommend a dehumidifier! Not well placed for anyone without a vehicle and cabs are pricey so make sure you book an excursion to get around. Staff were pleasant and breakfast at the restaurant was good. Would stay here again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Exceptional Stay in Beautiful Bay of Islands! We recently spent four nights at this stunning property in Russell, New Zealand, and everything about our stay was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding—warm, welcoming, and attentive without being intrusive. The facilities were top-notch: clean, modern, and incredibly comfortable. Whether we were relaxing in our villa, enjoying the scenic surroundings, or taking advantage of the amenities, everything was impeccably maintained and thoughtfully designed. What really stood out was the staff—they went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. Friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring, they made us feel right at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to unwind and explore the beauty of New Zealand North Island. Highly recommended, and we can’t wait to return!

Staff were so nice- especially Anna! All staff were so accommodating and helped us with whatever we needed. Beautiful place to stay at. Personally wouldn’t recommend over 3 or 4 nights in colder weather as it does get a little hard to figure out plans.

We have used this hotel many times and it is always 5 star Unfortunately the price is now “up there” and it has to be a treat Highly recommended on all scores

As always was a wonderful stay, polite kind staff, great room with lovely harbour views, the beds are so comfortable.
