Welcome to the Gabriel Residence
Poised above Wairoa Bay, the Gabriel Residence has magnificent views across bush, rolling pasture, wetlands and the islands beyond the bay. Designed in the style of a contemporary lodge to be a relaxing base from which to explore the extraordinary natural wonders of the Bay of Islands.
This expansive residence has the feel of a traditional hunting and fishing lodge rendered with modern Pacific flair.
The timber-lined living, entertaining and recreation areas – including three lounges, a huge open-plan entertainer’s kitchen with scullery and games room – flow easily into each other, and through to multiple outdoor spaces.
The generous covered deck enjoys the sea breeze off Wairoa Bay, while smaller covered and open decks and terraces create opportunities for private retreat. The large, sheltered open-air courtyard is ideal for hosting parties or events on warm nights, or long conversations around the fire pit under starlit skies.
Its four equal-status king suites sleep eight guests, making it ideal for extended families, groups of friends and corporate retreats. The stone lined-bathrooms feature deep baths and capacious showers with the feel of a wellness resort.
The Landing Residences are a group of four premium boutique villas, offering premium luxury and comfort in unparalleled surroundings. They are located on a secluded 1000-acre peninsula of private beaches, rolling hills, wildlife sanctuaries and historic sites.
The properties can be booked individually or together to suit your accommodation needs, with a number of configurations available. The other three properties are Gabriel Residence, The Cooper Residence and Vineyard Villa.
Multi-villa properties can be hired individually or as a full property.

Suitable For Events
As kaitiaki (caretakers) of 1000 acres of Aotearoa New Zealand’s incredible natural coastal landscape, which is home to unique native bird and animal life, as well as sites of cultural significance, The Landing is committed to minimising greenhouse gas emissions.
These natural and cultural taonga (treasures) are put at risk by the potential effects of climate change, such as significant sea level rise, flooding and bushfires and severe weather events. For this reason, as well as duty to the overall wellbeing of the planet, The Landing has embarked on a programme with Toitū Envirocare to reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions over time.
In 2021, The Landing was certified Toitū carbonzero, meaning they emit net zero greenhouse gas emissions.
This has been done through growing their own carbon sink – over 35 hectares of regenerated native forest and wetlands, which currently absorbs more than three times as much carbon as their businesses emit in their operation.
Signature Experiences
Touchstone Experiences - Kiwi Night Walk
Lushly green and ringing with birdsong during the day, by night the New Zealand native forest is magically still and dark.
The Landing’s guide will take you on a torch-lit journey into the darkness to discover New Zealand’s shy iconic native bird, the kiwi.
This native bird species lives in abundance at The Landing. See burrows where they hide during the day and hear their calls to each other through the night air. Experience face-to-fuzzy-face interaction with them as they roam the forest searching for food in their favourite spots.
