Great to be able to see the sea. A few bush walks real handy. Nice wonder into Russell town

Unfortunately there is no kitchen (as correctly mentioned in the description - but still, a possibility to do some basic cooking would further improve the experience, especially when staying more than just one night). The way down from the parking spot to the venue is quite long and steep - not suitable for people with a walking disability. A note in the description would help to avoid nasty surprises.

Very nice venue with an exceptional view into the bay of Russell. Absolutely phantastic.

The narrow access via steps extending down side of property (externally, exposed to weather) with loose stones and fairly steep incline made it difficult as one of us was feeling exhausted.

The host was kind and friendly and the view was good. The studio was very presentable, very clean and nicely decorated throughout - a spacious bathroom, tidy lounge/dining area with a very comfy bed off to one side. The deck with table and chairs to dine alfresco was a nice touch putting visitors amongst the birds, particularly the curious weka.

Bush clad veuws from windows. Could hear bird song. Closeness to Russell township and bush walk. Comfy bed.

Lack of table/chairs to eat despite the presence of 2 tvs.

The room is spacious with a mezzanine

A few small touches would elevate this accomodations from excellent to being extraordinary. At this price point, the absence of milk and the very ordinary coffee were the only real disappointments.

Quiet seclusion, aspect and view very pleasing. Would definitely come back.

The heat pump wasn’t working, the room smelt musty and there was no lighting on the pathway down to the room which is a health and safety issue.

It was clean, tidy and a reasonable size for a couple and not too far from the city centre.

nice place

Nothing. Very dark outside. A couple more automatic garden lights wld be helpful.

Comfortable and in a great location. A bit quirky but that’s what we liked.

This particular room is at the bottom of the hill, it was not ideal for lugging the bags down, not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. The room slightly musty smell on arrival, but once aired out this went away.

We were in the 'Garden Suite" This is a lovely place to be and the veiws are geat, bed is very comfy, the rooms have both AC and fly screens on the windows so you can get a great airlof and no bugs. the deck outside is a a nice place to be and sit and ejoy the view and a good book :)

Awesome location, quite and safe. Beautiful surroundings, can see so many stars in a clear night. We can hear kiwis in the evening and early in the morning.

Stayed in February 2024

There was a bit of a funky smell in the room, likely due to humidity. But we were able to open the windows with screens on.

We were given an upgrade to a larger room with a lovely view. It was super quiet and relaxing and an easy drive into town. It was also close to the viewpoint which, after a short walk, was breathtaking. The bed and linens were very comfortable. Overall a great stay.

Access to water to fill the hot water jug / get a drink was restrictive. In Treetops room some people might not like the fact the restroom facilities were behind a partition behind the bed and a person in the second bed would need to walk right past you. If one is 'picky' do not stay in the Treetops unit as it is on the upper side of the house with just a small view of bay. Feel that unit should have been at a lower price, as not worth the money paid.

Good location with elevated views over the Russell foreshore and close to the Russell flagstaff. The property is at the end of the street, which meant the lack of parking on the property was not an issue. Our friends were located a short walk away on the other side of the building and we were able to use their deck from socialising as our deck was adjacent to road and without a view. The Tree Tops is a little funky and may put some people off as you have to walk down stairs to the living space, which kids will like as it is more like a dungeon.

As it was my sister and I having only a half wall separating the bathroom and bedroom was awkward.

Great location, nice and quiet. Plenty of room and good facilities. Having a gate to lock at the top of the stairs was a great safety feature especially at night.

Stayed in February 2024

The AC in my room stopped working after the first night and the TV was a bit spotty (the picture would go out). These were not deal breakers though.

I had a great stay at Titore Lodge. Karen is so kind and welcoming, which made my stay even better. The room was spacious and the bed was super comfortable. I also liked that there is a hiking trail right by the property, so I could walk/hike into town (I did not have a car).

Lots of steps down to the property but worth it. I would have liked to have met the hosts.

Wonderful views of the bay and great location.
