Amongst the world’s greatest

We celebrate two of our villas for being named in Robb Report's inaugural Greatest 50 Hotel Suites.

Congratulations to the Cooper Residence at The Landing New Zealand, Bay of Islands & The Homestead at FLOCKHILL Lodge.

In announcing their list, Robb Report spoke highly of the swath of massive private agricultural estates in New Zealand that have transformed into private eco-resorts.

The Cooper Residence at The Landing in the Bay of Islands is one of just 4 villas on a 1,000 acre private peninsula featuring its own vineyard and extensive views. Built from enduring natural materials and luxuriously furnished in natural tones of flax and earth, the sweeping five-suite Cooper Residence is home to a significant collection of Māori taonga (treasures), historic artefacts, archeological relics and contemporary New Zealand art.

The Homestead at Flockhill, 90 minutes from Christchurch, enables guests to experience life in the majestic Southern Alps. It's set on a 36,000 acre sheep farm and is surrounded by dramatic mountains, winding rivers and glistening lakes. Finished with high beam ceilings, crushed velvets, natural materials, and perfectly framed views, The Homestead at FLOCKHILL blends the wilderness of the outdoors with a luxe interior, creating a sense of living in an oil painting.

Our congratulations also to Rosewood Hotel Group’s Cape Kidnappers for making the list - and to Stuart Rigg of Southern Crossings, one of the 20 Travel Masters worldwide whose expertise helped adjudicate the best.
