Kanuka Bay - water view

**Full refund offered for cancellations due to covid travel restriction**

Come and relax on the deck with stunning water views. In the evening you can sit in the private 4 person spa pool and hear Kiwi, Morepork and Weka calling. Watch the start and end of the boat racing Wednesday, Friday and Sunday afternoons in summer while enjoying a drink on the deck!

We are 7 minutes drive to Russell Township where you will find cafe's, restaurants and shops. Also close by are all the stunning beaches the Bay of Island has to offer where you can enjoy swimming, fishing, surfing, sunbathing or just a casual stroll. Within 3 minutes walk is the start of the scenic boardwalk/bushwalk to Russell or explore Okiato, the area that was once New Zealand's first capital. Paihia is a short drive away (8KM) via the Car Ferry. Within a 2min drive is the Omata Estate Vineyard.

There are plenty of tourist attractions on offer in the area. The unit contains a folder with a good selection of brochures we are sure that you will find something that suits your taste.

The unit is modern and comfortable for up to 4 people. The double glazed windows keep it warm in the cooler months. Good quality bedding, linen and towels are included with the cost.

The stay at Kanuba was even better than provided in the photos. This Bach provides total peace and ultimate relaxation with an awesome view over the Inlet. The place is clean, spacious with all amenities provided in good order. The spa on the deck is an exceptional bonus. The hosts are wonderful and very accommodating. An awesome stay, thank-you.

A lovely property with a incredible view. It is close to Russel and Paihai. You need to take the ferry which is very convenient and runs every 10 minutes (there is an option to drive there but a 20 minute added travel time). The ferry is $17 NZD each way so count this extra cost into the pricing. The property is clean and tidy - the bathroom shower could use a bit of a deeper clean. Everything else was great.

We had a brilliant stay in Jenny’s small but perfectly formed property. The view is amazing. The spa pool was a highlight. The property had everything we needed and was in a very quiet and safe location. Jenny was very helpful. We left an item behind and she kindly helped us arrange for shipping back to our home. We would love to come back and stay again sometime.
