Been based in town and close to the ferry wharf no need to drive anywhere. Plenty of food and drink restaurants and bars close.

Friendly, welcoming, efficient, convenient.Very happy.

Very helpful and friendly location was great

Cute, quaint lodge. Had the feel of an island lodge, which it actually is. Be aware that you can to take a 5 minute ferry to get to and from Russell. Ferry price is reasonable. $17 usd round trip. I would say the kitchenette supply did not look clean. I had to buy a sponge (rather than use the used, hairy one under the sink) and scrub all the glasses, dishes, and cutting board before I felt comfortable using it. There also wasn't daily cleaning service.

Laid back, close to village and ferry. Good facilities for cooked breakfast. TV OK.

Location was excellent literally a minute from seafront. Accommodation was spacious, well equipped and tastefully decorated. The host was very friendly and helpful. Absolutely perfect.

Perfect three night break, just what we needed before the long haul back to the UK

The location of this property is wonderful - so close to everything we needed to do and see. Reception was most friendly and helpful in assisting with some tour bookings and just answering general questions/ Would recommend to everyone. Had a great, comfortable stay

Perfect ending to our 4 week in New Zealand

The staff was so friendly, made us feel at home. Baden is such a kind person

An interesting building in the charming town of Russell, this is a very convenient place to stay in the town centre. Self-catering facilities are good. The bedroom is small without much storage space. The owner is exceptionally friendly and helpful. No air-consigning which might be a problem at the height of summer - we were there in early November. Overall a reasonable place for the price but the Duke of Marlborough might be an even more interesting and historic choice.

all was great. very friendly and helpful owners.

Perfect location in a sleepy little village. Easy walking to restaurants, attractions and passenger ferry. About 8kms drive to vehicle ferry across to Paihia which is a much busier town. Our host was the most welcoming and warm man. Would not hesitate to recommend this accommodation and would love a return visit.

Lovely Inn close to everything in Russell. Manager is wonderful. There when you need anything and lets you have your privacy when you want it. The rooms are a good size with a kitchenette (fridge, kettle, microwave and sink) There is a bit too much furnitre in them though, making it tough to walk around. Owners should consider getting rid of two of the 4 chairs and one of the two tables. Bed is comfortable. Internet is very good - both fast and reliable. The bathroom is nice with a GREAT shower. The rooms could be a bit cleaner. I found a few bugs that looked like roaches in the room and there was debris in the bathroom corner (hair and hairband). I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Russell and would most definitely stay here again.

The suites are beautifully designed with elegant yet charming furnishings. Baden makes you feel so welcome & goes out of his way to make your stay special. I love that you are close to the shops, bars & restaurants as well as the waterfront, for a wander down the wharf or to catch a fishing charter or trip around the Bay. One of the best places to stay in Russell, very reasonably priced & high quality accommodation.

We really enjoyed our stay and Baden the manager/ owner was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, the bed comfortable. Seaport Village is centrally locates & very well maintained. We loved our visit & were sad to leave

Friendly staff - really went out of the way to welcome us, didn’t seem like they had a “customer service hat” on, just genuinely nice people running it. Right next to the Duke pub, and right in the middle of town - excellent location.

Our stay in Russell was wonderful - Seaport Village is in a fabulous location, very close to everything and our room looked directly down the road to the wharf in Russell.

Situated in a quiet street back from the hustle and bustle of the beautiful village.The room was spotless clean and comfortable.Braden was very helpful and friendly and nothing any trouble..Village a short stroll away with excellent restaurants and coffee shops.

VERY pleasant management and facilities. would return to this property

Another great stay at Seaport Village!! The standard friendly welcome and even a room upgrade!! We were stoked!! Great location, staff and everything you would need!! Will be back!!

We spent 5 nights here over the Christmas holiday and had a fantastic time. The suite was clean and well appointed and there was even a dishwasher! Two bedrooms with plenty of room throughout. Beds were comfortable and the bathroom was spacious. The balcony had a good view of the water over a couple of rooftops. Our host for Seaport Village was Baden who made us feel very welcome. We were even included in a great Christmas day pot-luck dinner with other visitors and Baden's family and local friends. It made it a really special visit for our family. I would highly recommend Seaport Village and hope to return in the not too distant future.

Absolutely wonderful apartment, in the centre of town close to restaurants and the sea, but very quiet. The host was brilliant. Would definitely recommend.

Nice motel well located, 5min walk to Russell's wharf to get on the ferry, an 1 min walk to Main street with restaurants, shops and sea. Our room had a recently renovated kitchen and bathroom with everything we needed. Felt more like a hotel than motel, which I guess is expected considering the price. A nice stay.

This hotel is very convenient to get the nice restaurants and wharf.

We had the best time there the manager makes you feel so welcome nothing was too much trouble. Location was great. Lovely place to have a quite break

Not what we expected, good for relaxing but not really good for anything else.
