Golfers love the ocean-side 18-hole PGA course at this Bay of Islands resort. Surfers love the waves at nearby Matauri Bay and families enjoy its three pools – one of which has an infinity edge. Couples seeking a romantic getaway can find a secluded spot for a picnic (prepared by the lodge kitchen) within its three beaches. Residences, suites and an owners cottage cater for every type of traveller, plus there’s a spa, two tennis courts, and a restaurant cooking up Pacific Rim cuisine, which is served with views of Cape Brett.
