  • With a sheep and cattle station, as well as an onsite vegetable garden, you can expect your handcrafted meals at Cape Kidnappers to feature fresh and locally sourced produce from the property and the wider Hawke’s Bay region.


Set in 6,000 acres of rolling pastures, Rosewood Cape Kidnappers' terrain is reminiscent of Montana but plunges 800 feet into the sea at Hawke's Bay. The farm incorporates the accommodation of a boutique lodge, an award winning 71 par golf course and indulgent spa treatment facilities. With 180 degree panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and a multitude of activities, Cape Kidnappers provides the prefect escape from reality.

A combination of stone and weathered wood, the lodge buildings combine rustic materials with comfortable up-to-date furniture, creating the feeling of being in a cosy and welcoming home. The main lodge features many warm and welcoming common areas in which to relax including the lounge, dining room and various 'outdoor rooms'. Guests gather each evening over a drink to discuss the adventures of the day before sampling the fresh local cuisine in the dining room or at one of the property's many romantic private dining locations.

All 22 of Cape Kidnappers' stunning suites have panoramic views of the farm, golf course and the Pacific Ocean from their private deck and large picture windows so that you never feel disconnected from the enormity of the landscape surrounding you. Every creature comfort has been attended to with a clean, crisp style dominating throughout. For families or groups the Owner's Suite is a private four-bedroom retreat with kitchen, large sitting room, open plan kitchen and private Jacuzzi where you can sit and admire the majestic views from the ridgetop location.

Cape Kidnappers has a stunning 50’ heated infinity pool and Jacuzzi with outstanding views over the farmland and to the sea beyond. After a wonderful day of exploring this fabulous area, having had a tiring game of golf, a quad biking or hiking trip or simply sampling the wide selection of regional wines, return to Cape Kidnappers to the fabulous Spa that is located on the hillside above the Lodge and is guaranteed to relax and rejuvenate in time for tomorrow's adventures.
