Review

A collection of five contemporary style villas set within a 75-acre estate on a peninsula overlooking the Bay of Islands, Eagle’s Nest offers the ultimate home-away-from-home stay. The property’s small collection of uber sleek, modern accommodations range from one to four bedrooms, each uniquely positioned and designed to maximize and enhance their view over lush landscape and the vibrant sea beyond. Eagle’s Nest villas feature large, floor-to-ceiling glass windows or doors and many include vast, furnished outdoor spaces (some with private pools and jacuzzis) giving guests the sense that they are floating above the ocean. Clean lines and natural materials create a contemporary and casually elegant aesthetic that is warmed with original artwork and the occasional antique furnishing.

While the property does not offer public space or the facilities of a proper lodge, all villas are abundantly stocked with food and beverages and an impressive roster of fantastic private chefs are available for hire, along with personal trainers and spa therapists for those seeking in-villa training and treatments. Eagle’s Nest’s close proximity to the town of Russell makes it a great option for those who enjoy being close to local life. With a few buzzy restaurants and quaint mom and pop shops to browse, the charming, seaside summer town has ample opportunity for families and couples to take advantage of leisure time here. Moreover, Eagle’s Nest allows guests to explore all of the best activities of the region, including sailing, cycling, fishing, scuba diving, horse trekking and golf.

There is a small on-site management team on hand to assist with transfer and activity arrangements along with additional for-hire services like butlers, chauffeurs, dry cleaning and catering.

Who Should Stay

Large families and groups who can take full advantage of having their own home base will appreciate this luxury, villa- only estate. Those who seek complete privacy or a house party atmosphere will be happy here. Couples and families who prefer the services and facilities of a proper hotel will be happier at Kauri Cliffs.
