Lounge and Living Areas

Vaulted ceilings with skylights, a wood-burning fireplace and museum-quality Māori artworks set the tone for a lounge designed as much for contemplation as for gathering. Floor-to-ceiling doors draw the eye to the infinity pool and the Waikato River beyond, while a private outdoor pavilion with its own fireplace and spa offers a quieter invitation to slow down and stay a little longer.

Bedrooms
and Ensuites

Both king bedrooms open to the outdoors, their French doors framing either a private enclosed garden or a wide timber verandah where a heated infinity pool extends toward the deep turquoise Waikato River. Inside, an open fireplace, walk-through dressing room and ensuite with deep soaking bath and monogrammed linens complete a bedroom of quiet, considered luxury.
