Rosewood Kauri Cliffs

Rosewood Kauri Cliffs

Set within an estate of more than two thousand hectares, among forests and hills, this residence has the air of an ideal refuge from which to explore the far reaches of the wild. Its seaside character, shaped by white timber façades and colonnaded verandas, echoes the three singular beaches, their sand by turns pink, by turns immaculate. The common areas embrace the spirit of the place, where interiors and surroundings converse in perfect harmony. A chromatic palette attuned to the surroundings and furnishings subtly evoking local craftsmanship create a homely setting. The twenty-six keys extend this symbiotic spirit, with their stately air touched with traditional accents, thrown wide open onto their natural setting. Shaped by the day's catch and seasonal local produce, the chef's cuisine tells the story of the place another way.

Accommodations

What we like

The swing

A green in the middle of the Pacific Ocean awaits you at Kauri Cliffs golf course.

The moment

In the four-bedroom Villa, lounge in the living room around a marble fireplace that rivals the view outside.

The adventure

A picnic served entirely on wood among the pohutukawa trees, is the very definition of relaxation at Pink Beach.
