Eagles Nest
Five private villas on 75 acres above Russell, four of them with their own heated infinity pools.
Eagles Nest is at 60 Tapeka Road, Russell, and is built around five exclusive villas on a 75-acre site. Four of the five have a private heated infinity pool and all have a private jacuzzi.
It is a very different stay from the Copthorne: private and quiet, aimed at couples, and priced as a splurge. Russell itself is a small, historic waterfront village reached by ferry from Paihia or by road.
Book well ahead for summer, and check each villa’s details on Trip.com, since pool and layout vary between them.
