Rosewood Kauri Cliffs

Set on a 6,000-acre estate in Northland, Rosewood Kauri Cliffs looks out across the Pacific Ocean, with panoramic views stretching from Cape Brett to the Cavalli Islands. Three private beaches offer space to swim, explore or enjoy a relaxed barbecue with your toes in the sand.

The property’s championship golf course is world-renowned, carved into cliff tops with dramatic sea-facing holes. Designed by David Harman, it’s a must-play for golf enthusiasts drawn to spectacular natural settings.

Accommodation includes 22 elegant suites and a collection of private villas. Each suite features an open fireplace, private terrace and views over the ocean or the golf course. The Owner’s Cottage offers up to three bedrooms, with its own infinity pool, Jacuzzi and a kitchen—ideal for those wanting private dining curated by an in-house chef.

Dining is varied and always seasonal. Choose a picnic by a waterfall, a poolside salad or a more formal multi-course dinner in the lodge. Daily cocktail hour invites guests to gather for drinks and canapés before the evening unfolds.

On-site facilities include tennis courts, a spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and a fitness centre. Beyond the property, a world of activities awaits—from quad biking and horse riding to deep-sea fishing and diving. Expert guides lead excursions to places like Ninety Mile Beach, Rainbow Falls, and the ancient Puketi Kauri Forest.
