The Lodge at Kauri Cliffs

Set on 6,000 acres of lush rolling North Island countryside and bushland beside the Pacific, the five-star luxury 22-suite Lodge at Kauri Cliffs is one of three properties owned by the New York-based Robertson family (the others are the Farm at Cape Kidnappers and Matakauri Lodge).  Despite its American owners, Kauri Cliffs feels 100% Kiwi.  Each cottage suite has its own private porch, bedroom with sitting area, and open fireplace.  Gourmet a la carte dining is available in either the main dining room or on the verandas.  While the spectacular championship golf course is the main draw here, there are also two tennis courts, an infinity pool, secluded swimming beaches, and a spa regarded as one of the best in New Zealand.
