Living the Good Life

From five-star accommodation and private transport to the best in Pacific Rim fine dining – in New Zealand you can indulge yourself and experience the good life.

Major international hotel chains as well as boutique accommodation with individual style and outstanding service are found throughout New Zealand. From out-of-the way exclusive lodges in pristine settings to sophisticated and stylish city suites, you can choose superb accommodation to cater to your every need.

Let the journey be as spectacular as the destination – hire a private jet or charter a plane to avoid the crowds and see the country with a personal guide at your service.

There’s nothing like the taste of a freshly caught fish or crayfish cooked and eaten on deck against a backdrop of clear water and sea air. A luxury yacht charter is essentially your own floating hotel, with all the indulgences of five-star accommodation, but with the added benefits of being able to explore remote islands, hidden coves and beaches, or watching the sun set while you sip on a superb New Zealand wine.

Visiting New Zealand is about living the good life and leaving your cares behind. Luxury spas and retreats are found throughout the country – spoil yourself with an extensive range of indulgent health and beauty treatments while on your holiday of a lifetime. If playing a round on the green is to your liking, golf courses such as the remarkable cliff top course at Cape Kidnappers, and Terrace Downs in Canterbury with its astonishing alpine views, are pure heaven for keen golfers.

First rate fine dining can be found In New Zealand’s main centres and, increasingly, in smaller more rural areas – often accompanied by a stunning view. Savour the taste of tender New Zealand beef and lamb while you sample a huge range of world-class locally produced boutique wines, cheeses and other culinary delights.
