What's hot - Our watch list for 2016
POSTED BY Nora on
Jacqui's pick: Seascape – Christchurch
I couldn’t rave more about how romantic this property is. A real no-fuss, yet ultra-modern, world-of-your-own jewel that allows you to forget all of life’s matters.
The remoteness (only accessible by heli or 4WD), outdoor Jacuzzi, fire pit, natural feel of the interiors plus the private chef made our stay a lifelong memory.
Nic’s pick: The Cooper Residence - Bay of Islands
This property provides the ‘wow’ factor in every corner! It seamlessly blends luxurious furnishings with fascinating Maori artefact's and historic artwork; giving an entirely unique villa experience. It has jaw dropping coastal views, a private beach, and they even produce their own wine there with private wine tastings available – what more could you ask for! Even as a born and bred kiwi I would holiday there in a heartbeat.
Nora’s pick: Hawke's Bay Haven - Hawke's Bay
Haven by name, haven by nature! I’m not at all green fingered but the immaculate gardens are those expected only in fairy-tales. If, like me, you want to have some serious rest & relaxation whilst on holiday, then this is the place to go. The property comes complete with swimming pool, outdoor dining cabana, wood fireplace, BBQ, tennis court (....the list could go on!), making it hard to find a reason to leave!
Clare’s pick: Otaha Beachfront Lodge – Bay of Islands
If only I could live here, I would be the most content person that there ever was. The energy that the space provides is something I wish I could bottle up – it has an enormous sense of calmness which is only heightened by the private beach that you have at your disposal. The light wood styling, the designer furnishings and the floor to ceiling windows collaborate together in complete harmony. I can’t wait for you to see what I mean!
Sarah's pick: Kumanu – Queenstown
My ultimate favourite would be Kumanu. Its interior design is unique and its location is remote. A true retreat to get away from it all, relax in the hot tub, in the multiple lounge areas or by the outdoor fire with a glass of pinot noir! Absolute bliss!
