    Special Retreat

    We had a glorious weekend at Kauri Hills Estate. The luxurious estate is so special, with magnificent breathtaking views and a tastefully landscaped garden/ nature reserve. The villa was quirky, soft and comfortable, beautifully decorated with all the high-end amenities you need, plus a great sound system and a spa with no chemicals. We had such an amazing and relaxing retreat. Joe and Rob were next-level hosts - they spoilt us with an amazing star-gazing evening (a must-do if you book at Kauri Hills Estate). And they truly made our stay so special and memorable. Their service was impeccable, and Rob and Joe know how to give their guests a personal touch and make them feel welcome. There is so much more that Kauri Hills Estate offers that is not easily found in other stays - if you are looking for that special getaway - This is a great place to be- A Hidden Gem!

    A Perfect Weekend Getaway!

    We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this charming property! The location was serene and offered a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The accommodation itself was better than the photos let on, immaculately clean, and provided all the comforts we could have asked for. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and ensured that our stay was as pleasant as possible. We enjoyed the room and dinner service on occasion and the food hit the spot! We especially loved the views of the harbour, spa bath and remoteness. It truly felt like a home away from home. We would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. We can't wait to return! Thanks so much!

    Definitely keen to be back !

    We are a family with 2 children and we had a lovely stay at this villa. We are impressed from the moment we drove in the gate of the estate. From then on, the experience just gets better and better!
    Villa is beautiful and clean with amazing view that changes daily. It’s also very well equipped.
    Spa is the icing on the cake and kids enjoyed the space on the open deck. We had some rainy days, but we felt we could spend a lot of time IN the villa because it’s so comfortable and nice.
    We enjoyed the walk around the villa and outside the villa.
