“Good food, good rooms, great scenary”

Reviewed 5 June 2013

Had a great golf course, but that is not why we went there. It is a very good location for touring the area including going up to Cape Reinga (do not miss the bus ride on 90 mile beach). Had dinner there each of two nights, very good, service excellent, wines excellent. Wish we had had more than two days... More

“Wonderful location spoilt by lack of choice in restaurant”

Reviewed 17 April 2013

This resort is attached to a winery and a golf course. The rooms are fine and the golf course is wonderful, especially as there is a lot of native fauna to negotiate. However this resort lets itself down by the very limited selection in the dining room. For a restaurant positioned in sight of the sea I was startled to... More

Dear Muzza1947, Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your recent stay, I was pleased to read there was many things you enjoyed about the Resort. I was disappointed to read you found our restaurant menu limited. I will certainly have a look at the items you have raised. Kind Regards, Simon Jones More

“Great Place To Stay”

Reviewed 22 March 2013

Spacious rooms & friendly staff. Had the pool to ourselves. Lovely restaurant where the chef prepared a separate menu the second night so there was no risk of having to eat the same food again (vegetarian diet). Very considerate! 1 minute drive from the attached Karikari estate vineyard where they do a great lunch and excellently priced wines. The wrap-around... More

“Perfect place to relax”

This is a special place almost at the end of the Karikari peninsular consisting of a hotel complex, 10 villas, a 18 hole golf course and a winery. Very impressing is the panorama view of a very beautiful scenery. Quiet and pleasant. The hotel complex consists of three buildings: Reception and shop, a building with lodge rooms and another with... More

“Return Visit”
