The property is in a vineyard and most rooms oversee a nice grape + tree + lake view. I stayed at Aoraki suite which is very spacious, clean and comfortable. There is daily complimentary cheese board - minibar, chips and a bottle of rose are also complimentary. I tried the “Trust the Chef” dinner at the estate which is very good. Quality food plus reasonably priced wine pairing / wine menu. Breakfast was good - continental plus a la carte. Last but not least, at the retreat suite there is a very nice lobby, infinity pool and hot tub.

Where do we start? Juliet was an amazing host, catered to my dietary needs and even bought me freshly baked banana bread with a candle for my birthday. There’s a great view of the shot over jet, beautiful sunrise from our room and the snow made it that little bit better. Everything about the stay was incredible and we couldn’t have asked for more, thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home! Ciara and Brian
