Blue Oasis is a wonderful home where family and friends can truly relax and enjoy the beauty of the Bay of Islands. The house is simply gorgeous and so well prepared for guests -- and the views are AMAZING! All of the rooms are well-appointed and the owners' attention to detail is evident in every room -- it enhances the sense of hospitality. The kitchen and grilling patio allow for lots of good home-cooked meals. Or there is easy access to restaurants in Russell. Perfect start to our two week trip to New Zealand!
My friend and I had a wonderful time at Blue Oasis! The house is absolutely beautiful, with decks on every floor to enjoy the amazing and relaxing view of the ocean wherever you are. The kitchen is open and has all the amenities that you could ask for. There is a walking path that goes down to a serene yoga deck, which also has a stunning view of the ocean. I would definitely stay at this paradise again. The location is also perfect, with an inviting beach and the wharf just down the road. The town of Russell is adorable with shops and quality restaurants to choose from.
Blue Oasis is truly an oasis. If you want to stay in a beautiful home with one of the most beautiful settings in the world, choose Blue Oasis. The kitchen has everything for the chefs in the family and all of the rooms are spacious, clean and have all the comforts you could want. The decks are perfect for lounging as a family are privately off your own bedroom. The beach is a short walk or you can watch the surfers and yachts from the deck. Sunrises and sunsets offer a beautiful array of color for all to enjoy. The town of Russell is a lovely spot with good restaurants and shops. The chocolate shop should not be missed. A stay a Blue Oasis will give you wonderful memories for years to come.
Blue Oasis is on a cliff overlooking the Bay of Islands. When you enter the house all you see is the azure sky meeting the teal sea. The front of the house is all glass so you have a view from every room. The setting is truly magnificent! The accommodations are impeccable. The house is the ultimate in luxury, style and appointments. It is within walking distance of the quaint town of Russell that has dining and shopping available. Dine at the Gables or better yet, shop in the market, take you groceries back to the house and eat outside on the deck. That way you can enjoy the peaceful, relaxing, rejuvenating atmosphere of Blue Oasis!
We have stayed at Blue Oasis several times in 2015 & 2016. This is a magic place and in probably New Zealand's most iconic ocean and islands region. Russell village is close by which is enchanting and so away from this world in USA and Europe. You can be sure that if you visit Blue Oasis you will never forget this amazing environment and beautiful property.
It is nearly impossible to imagine how breath taking and beautiful the view at the Blue Oasis is...from nearly every room and especially from the living room, dining room. and my most favorite the kitchen area. To be fully transparent, the owners of the Blue Oasis are friends of mine. Still, I endorse this luxury villa based on my personal experience while I lived and worked in Asia.
Blue Oasis is heaven on earth! The accommodations are first class, the views are to die for and the location is delightful. We highly recommend a stay here. Staying anywhere else in New Zealand is missing out on an experience of a lifetime.
For weary travelers from far away To land upon a Blue Oasis on the Bay, A feast was had by all of us With Garden views and Sea below. Our hearts and souls are filled with flow, Of Kiwi heaven, now we know! New Zealand wine is very dear, But the bottles are too small, we fear. Although our boat was very near, Cyclone Hola kept us here! And with regret we must depart… But Blue Oasis has captured our heart!
This place is unbelievable. You cannot ask for a better location. It is located at close to the top of a hill and overlooks looks the water with other islands visible for miles. You hear the waves all of the time and they put you right to sleep. It is a three minute drive from the town center where lovely little restaurants, bars, shops, and the wharf are located. The house is luxurious and has everything you could possibly need - from the kitchen utensils to kayaks. Stay here. You will thank me!
Relaxing and rejuvenating, this place is like a 5 star hotel all to yourself. Excellent hospitality, super clean and a bunch of little touches that made our stay so great. We do so much in our lives that are so quickly forgotten, we made memories here that we will keep and treasure. Especially with that view, it may be the best in Russell.
