Luxury Holidays At The Landing Residences

A collection of four luxury New Zealand lodges nestled among 1,000 acres of lush wetlands and vineyards, The Landings combines natural splendour with a fascinating history. Numerous early Māori settlements were located here, and the region played a key role in early colonial history, while it is now also the site of an extensive native wildlife programme, aiming to regenerate native trees and breed kiwi and pateke birds. After making the most of heritage trails, bush walks, cycling, game fishing, boating or discovering the six private beaches, unwind with a massage in the privacy of your residence, sample the award-winning estate wine, and feast on exceptional garden-to-plate cuisine.

Why The Landing Residences is so special...

Dining & Gourmet

Whether you choose to cater for yourself in your residence’s state-of-the-art kitchen, or dine on bespoke menus crafted by expert chefs, expect ‘garden-to-plate’ dining that makes use of the property’s orchards, vegetable and herb gardens and free-range eggs, as well as the region’s exceptional meat and seafood. Possible dining destinations include outdoor terraces, courtyards, gardens and the jetty. Of course, wine is also a huge part of any stay here, and The Landings is home to its own sloping vineyard that produces award-winning, sustainable Rosé, Syrah, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay wines. Guided by the expert vineyard manager, you can visit The Landing wine cellar, taste wines from the vineyard and tour Marsden Estate Wines where The Landing Wines are made.

Wildlife Encounters

The Landing's thousands of acres play host to a huge native bush, wetland and wildlife regeneration scheme, through which more than one million trees and shrubs have been planted so far. This restoration has also encouraged several rare and endangered bird species to settle in the area - including kiwi, pateke, paradise ducks and oyster catchers - making bird watching wonderful here, particularly the night time kiwi-spotting walks.

Wellington

New Zealand’s capital city nestles between rolling hills and a beautiful harbour. It’s a small and trendy capital, most famous for its culture, arts and heritage. There are numerous galleries, theatres and museums here, including the national museum Te Papa Tongarewa, offering fantastic interactive exhibits. Explore on foot and follow the ‘City to Sea Walk’ or the stunning Makara Peak Track. Other recreational pursuits include cycling, mountain biking and sea kayaking, or you can simply relax on the city beach, named Oriental Bay. For the best panoramic views over the city, hop on the scenic cable car and ride up to the charming, leafy Kelburn suburb.

Wellington
Auckland

Auckland, New Zealand’s biggest city, offers fabulous shopping for every taste, a huge assortment of places to eat and drink, vibrant nightspots and a friendly Polynesian culture. What’s more, this fabulous city is bordered by stunning beaches, islands, volcanoes and rainforest. Ascend the Sky Tower for incredible views and revolving, sky-top dining, or head to Queen Street for a touch of retail therapy. Chill out on a scenic trip to Mission Bay on Auckland’s sunny shoreline, dotted with elegant yachts and lively bars and eateries.

Auckland
Bay of Islands

This sub-tropical paradise is renowned for its bewitching beauty and historical background, while the beaches and watersports opportunities are also world-class. Head underwater in search of the terrific dive sites, or stick above the waterline to look for dolphins, whales, penguins and gannets. Take a trip by sea or air to Cape Brett, promising fantastic rock formations like the ‘Hole in the Rock’ on Piercy Island. Back on land, there are coastal, riverside and rainforest walking trails, as well as interesting little towns, including Russell, Kerikeri and Opua.

Bay of Islands
Lake Taupo

Located in the middle of North Island, Lake Taupo is enormous and truly stunning, created from a volcanic eruption some 2,000 years ago. Evidence can be found at the Crater of the Moon, an incredible volcanic valley filled with hissing steam and bubbling cauldrons of mud. Similarly, there are often warm geothermal currents in Lake Taupo’s waters, making it perfect for swimming, kayaking, sailing, water skiing and parasailing. Many travellers visit for the beaches and this array of water activities, as well as world-class trout fishing. Other star attractions in the region include Huka Falls, Aratiatia Rapids and the Tongario National Park World Heritage Site.

Lake Taupo
Outdoor Adventure

Rotorua’s outdoor pursuits comprise challenging mountain biking, hiking, trout fishing and horse riding, while more thrilling activities include ziplining, zorbing and bungy jumping. In Palliser Bay, discover the great outdoors with a host of activities and adventures - such as horse-riding, walking trails or fishing. Take a helicopter flight to Cape Palliser and spot the local colony of brown fur seals, or visit striking geographical sites, including the Pinnacles.

Outdoor Adventure
Thermal Activity

This fascinating region is well-known as a geothermal wonderland, a place to soak in a natural hot spring or gape at gushing geysers. Location-wise, it sits within the Pacific Rim of Fire, a mass of raging volcanic activity. To truly experience your unique surroundings, head out on a 4WD tour to the edge of Mount Tarawera’s crater. Making the most of its natural assets, Rotorua City even houses a thermally-heated, open-air dining quarter called Eat Street.

Thermal Activity
Wine Trails

Hawke’s Bay is the first stop on the Classic New Zealand Wine Trail, perfect for those with an interest in wine-tasting. Aptly named the ‘Wine Country’, it is a region carpeted with award-winning wineries and restaurants, thanks to its sunny climate and perfect terroir. Reds outnumber whites, with premium Cabernet Sauvignons, Merlots and Syrahs all making a name in the wine-drinking world.
