Te Arai Lodge

A David Trubridge “Navicular” chandelier pays homage to the distant sand dune of Mangawhai on the horizon and designates the dining area where you will gather around a repurposed solid elm table for the shared dining experience (alternatively, you can elect to have private dining in or outside your room or in a selection of other dining locations on the property).

The solid tawa timber kitchen with granite tops is a chef’s delight where memorable meals are created using fresh, organic produce from the property together with other local ingredients.

A north-facing terrace framed by purple-heart timber beams extends along the entire frontage of the property with a covered portico and open fireplace being an ideal place to watch the sunset with a glass of wine.
