We stayed at Kauri Cliffs for three nights in March 2023 and it was truly wonderful. The service, views, food, golf, our room, the relaxed environment - everything was incredible. The staff are so friendly and super-accommodating and make you feel like family. The golf course was the most picturesque I have played. Also - because the course doesn't receive a lot of play, you feel like you have the entire course to yourself which was a nice bonus. It was a special occasion destination for us and it did not disappoint in the least. We will be talking about our experience there for a long time!

If we could add an infinite number of dots to the review button to make it far more than excellent we would. It is a given that The Lodge at Kauri Cliffs provides luxury accommodations and they are luxurious. If you want the ultimate in luxury accommodations shop no further. It is not, however, the beautiful location or the luxury accommodations that would keep me coming back. It is the team of dedicated staff who make the Lodge at Kauri Cliffs an experience well above and beyond 5 stars. We were all personally greeted and shown around the property. A wonderful lunch was provided for us even though we arrived long after the lunch menu was being served. We enjoyed incredibly relaxing massages in the SPA and wonderful meals in the dining room. A huge thank you to Sebastian and the entire team for making our meals so very special. It was my birthday while we were visiting and the team went well above and beyond to make it memorable. We stayed in the owners cottage, Beautiful. Comfortable. Great for Two couples with two master suites and a large living area. The views were second to none and the pool was warm and inviting. We did see the other accomodations and they were all lovely. A very special trip at a very special lodge.

Kauri Cliffs Lodge offers a unique luxurious experience on all levels. Our deluxe suite overlooking the panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean & the immaculate green golf course was certainly magical and enchanting. We don’t play golf but we wished we did as the golf course with its 15 oceanfront holes looked absolutely fabulous. We however enjoyed using the golf buggy to drive around to explore the stunning property and discover the many nature walks. The food was also excellent which was fully inclusive. We enjoyed all meals. Dinner was definitely the highlight with a degustation menu with matching wines. I’m still dreaming of my creamy delicious chocolate mousse!! Staff were equally outstanding, especially Debbie and John who continually gave exceptional warm friendly humorous service. 10/10 👏 Overall - A spectacular luxurious lodge overlooking the Pacific Ocean, coastlines and 18 hole golf course. ⛳️ Kauri Cliffs lodge delivers pure indulgence in service, cuisine, facilities , accommodation and activities.

This was the closest thing to heaven that we could imagine! Food was outstanding and so was the service. Not one fault that we can point to. Prices are up there, especially if you spend a few nights, but in line with the market. We particularly liked the range of facilities on offer and especially having access to 6000 acres of beautifully kept golf course and farm. We are already planning a return…

If only once - you must avail yourself of this first class golf experience. From the Golf course layout with spectacular views over the ocean, the lodge setting for dining to the accommodation with access to 6 star spa and pool facilities

Highly recommended if you want to experience the very best in welcoming, authentic NZ luxury hospitality. Make sure you get a gold cart to tour the property and private beaches. Expensive, but fabulous.
