About this house rental

ABOUT VILLA ROSSA
Originally the apple orchard pack house this newly renovated 'red shed' is now a luxurious 2 bdrm villa with expansive open plan living areas and a private courtyard complete with citrus garden.
Perfect for 2 couples or a family, the second bedroom has a Super King that can be made up as is or split into 2 single beds (please confirm upon booking). Additional linen can also be supplied for a 5th person in the sitting room.
Cleaning fee includes professionally laundered linen & towels.

THE SPACE
Beautifully appointed interior details and expansive living areas provide guests with a unique experience and airBnB offering like no other.
Terrazzo tiles and exterior courtyard, 4.5 metre high plastered interior walls, tall windows and sun drenched reading nooks provide a similar look and feel to rural spanish and Italian offerings.

LOCATION
Villa Rossa is located 4 minutes drive from Havelock North, 10 minutes from Hastings and 15 minutes from Napier. The HB cycle trail is also at the end of the drive so guests can bike to the nearest cafe (900 metres down the road) for their morning coffee or into the Village or along one of the scenic bike routes. We encourage guests to BYO bikes as there is a designated parking area for Villa Rossa guests down the drive way which would also be secure for leaving bikes.

Great place to stay on a recent family holiday in Havelock North. Lovely setting in an apple orchard, with light filled living/kitchen area The place is tastefully decorated, comfortable, and very cozy. The kitchen is well set up for cooking in.

I stayed with a few girlfriends for one of the Mission concerts. We all thought the place was lovely, really well thought out, immaculate and welcoming - we were sad we didn't get to spend more time there.

Spacious, stylish barn overlooking orchard. Tall shuttered windows, comfortable furniture and well equipped kitchen. Morning sun streams through the shutters. Private alfresco dining in pleasant garden with citrus trees. Great location!

What a wonderful getaway!!…We stayed at Villa Rossa for 2 weeks…the former apple sorting house in the back of the hosts’ residence is charming with interesting thought provoking art on the walls. 2 bedrooms, one with a king that looks out on a neighboring orchard and another with twin beds. Highlights were a wonderful shower, many electrical outlets, a great functioning kitchen, a HUGE table that can be used not only for meals but enough room for games or a large puzzle (my wife is a puzzle “addict”),Netflix available on the telly…an excellent A/C and heater in the main room. We were less than 5 minutes from Havelock North Village with great restaurants and wonderful coffee shops (we fell in love with morning drinks at “At E’Z)…less than 10 minutes from Hastings with more eating and shopping options. What really made our stay so memorable and our hosts SO special was that we lived through Cyclone Gabrielle…the worst storm to hit the area in over 107 years…we were without power for about 38 hours and could not cook as the Villa had an electric stove…Liv was so wonderful as she had so much to deal with but made us a wonderful vegetarian pasta dinner when we had no communication access and all stores in the area were without power…her husband, Patch, even brought us a small portable gas stove so we could cook…we just cannot say enough about them as “innkeepers”. We came here with the intention of participating in the Napier Art Deco Festival, which was cancelled due to the storm…we will return next year to give it another chance and hope to stay at Villa Rossa once again!!

Although the Hawkes Bay weather didn’t behave itself that didn’t matter as the property was so welcoming and homely that we were happy to stay indoors. Beautifully fitted out with all the luxuries of home. Highly recommend.

This beautiful property was perfect for our getaway. It was well equipped with all the necessary items and the quirkiness of it being a former pack house added to the experience. Beautifully styled and had and views over the working orchard. Would recommend

Beautiful accommodation. Felt like you were in Tuscany. Great location and surroundings. Fantastic interior with great amenities. A lot of effort has gone into making this place one of the best I’ve stayed in.
