Rosewood Kauri Cliffs arvostelua

I cannot fault the property in anyway. From the moment you arrive through the properties doors nothing is too much for Fraser and his team at Kauri Cliffs. The food was exceptional, great quality ingredient’s, prepared and served to a fantastic standard. There was some bemusement from staff that I did not drink alcohol but they were very accommodating and made a non alcoholic cocktail for me before dinner. The infinity pool has great views and the golf course itself is flawless. I cannot recommend Kauri Cliffs enough, it really is an exceptional property.

Beautiful property spanning over 6000 acres of working farmland. Suite number 2 was terrific - conveniently close to the main lodge. Arrived with time to walk the grounds and enjoy the spectacular views. The infinity pool overlooks both the golf course and Takua Bay - quite stunning.
 Fishing with Blair was a highlight. He manages the relationship between the hotel and the wildlife on the property and clearly knows his stuff. The hotel was prepared to cook any worthy catch, which was a nice touch. Neil drove us around the estate and provided excellent insights. Dinner on the veranda was wonderful.
 The cultural activities in the area are worth exploring. We visited the Waitangi Treaty grounds and the Kawiti Caves where we saw Arachnocampa Luminosa - glowworms unique to New Zealand. Very special. Overall, excellent experience.

Amazing, awesome, incredible, bucket list golf! If you are a golf affectionado, and love golf and golf travel, you must visit Kauri Cliffs. Conditioning, clubhouse, food, all fabulous. Fabulous views, great staff, bucket list stuff. Not cheap but neither is Pebble or Dornoch! Nothing but great memories at Kauri Cliffs

Rosewood絕不令人失望，除了貴，沒有任何毛病，服務頂尖，球場美輪美奐，莊園巨大，可以探索的項目非常多。

The property and buildings are beautiful to be sure !! However, The room prices were so completey out of sync with the quality of room, view and overall hotel experience. Our view was partially blocked by overgrown trees . The people in reception were nice but our dinner server for both nights,Pina, was unknowledgeable about the menu and really couldn’t be bothered with the details. She didn’t even try to give us the actual name of one of the dishes she said “it’s just some frenchy thing” The dinner food was barely okay - not nearly worthy of the hefty price tag The lunch was inedible - I’ll tell you how you can mess up a burger…. Smother it top and bottom with an unidentifiable sauce ! And ruin a simple chicken wrap the same way The golf shop service was medium and our caddie was terrible - snotty and just wasn’t trying to help like a caddie should . Tiny gym, tiny spa, small outdoor pool ( with a gorgeous view ) Since our visit, we’ve been to two other golf properties in NZ ….at 1/3 of the cost we enjoyed far better overall experiences. Will advise everyone to skip this resort

To celebrate a special family birthday & to play golf, we had two nights here. It was superb & the staff could not do enough for us. Accomodation, meals & golf were so wonderful. We did not wish to leave!

Kauri Cliffs is a beautiful property. This was our second visit and we were so looking forward to coming back. The management has changed as they are now managed by Rosewood and are going thru some major changes that unfortunately are not positive. Last year they offered a really fun Summer series which was a different activity everyday. They had a putting contest, wine tasting and a pickleball clinic when we were there. They eliminated this. Last year each night they had a different menu and the food was very good. Now the menu was the same each night and the food was mediocre and service was very slow. Add to that a total lack of amenities in the cottage and I think Rosewood should carefully consider what they are eliminating. Golf was great and the staff is still very helpful and most accommodating.

We stayed in February/2024, for a business event, and left 1600 US dollars and our passports in the safe. On the last day we went to pick it up and it was missing 500 dollars. We spoke to management, but so far we have not heard back from the hotel.

Great golf course! Wonderful stay !Staff could not be better.

Stunning location with great staff and great food. The views from almost every hole rival any golf course in the world….and I don’t even play golf! The linens are like sleeping on a cloud. There are real Silver ferns on property so I finally got to see one! Having a golf cart to tool around in is a great benefit.

For $5800 per night we certainly expected more than was delivered. We had just arrived after 3 nights from their competition in Russell which way over delivered at a third the price. The room: we booked a two bedroom unit with the understanding we would be upgraded. Well, it turns out we had already booked the highest category and they couldn’t upgrade to next level because it was full of employees of the new company Rosewood that is taking over. The layout was poorly designed. To get to the primary bathroom from the primary bedroom you had to exit the bedroom and go through the common hallway. Who thought that was a good idea? I bent down to tie my shoe on our third day and saw a belt sticking out from under the bed. It didn’t belong to us. Which means for three days at least the house keeping staff had missed it. Gross. There were only three towels in the bathroom so when you get caught in a rain storm and need to dry off (we did) there weren’t towels to use for showering with after. The food: so bad our first night that instead of going back to the property for lunch after our excursion we looked around for any alternative. We didn’t find anything so had lunch at Kauri Cliffs and it was reasonable. Dinner that night was significantly better than the first night. The service: everyone seemed to be trying hard but with the exception of the true professionals like Sebastian (food and beverage manager) and James (guest services) they really didn’t get what five star service should be. In summary: beautiful property with potential but wildly overpriced for what you currently get particularly when you compare to the alternatives in the area.

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!

As a professional travel writer for 30 years this was one of my finest stays anywhere-- the lodge is exemplary in everything it takes on and the golf course was a delight, the people warm and sincere, the location beautiful beyond description. Don't miss pink beach.

We visited the lodge recently for 4 nights on our honeymoon across New Zealand. We were blown away at how amazing the property was and how personable the staff was. The golf was first class. We would highly recommend this property to anyone who truly needs some relaxation while taking in the views, private beaches, and the 6000 acres of private land the lodge has to explore. This was the highlight of our 12 day trip.
