A luxury lodge on six acres of manicured grounds and vineyards overlooking Tauranga's inner harbour, at 187 Matahui Road in Aongatete, near Katikati. Stays are bed and breakfast, with dinner as an option, and packages are tailored to guests' wishes. On-site facilities include a private gym, a driving range, an outdoor hot spa, a library, and massage or beauty treatments. The wine cellar offers a wide range of New Zealand wines, and there is a small vineyard and a large patio table overlooking the harbour. Hosts Trevor and Kay offer local advice, and the lodge is also used for weddings, corporate retreats and special occasions. Menus are seasonal and use locally grown products where possible, and guests can plant a native tree to offset their travel. The lodge is about 25 minutes north of Tauranga central.
