Fodor's Expert Review Te Koi the Lodge at Bronte
133 Bronte Rd. E, Mapua, Tasman, 7173, New Zealand
Nestled beside an estuary this estate features pure, simple luxury. Guests in the four purpose-built villas and suites come together for champagne each evening. Te Koi is surrounded by mature gardens. At high tide, the lawn is lapped by the sea and at low tide you can walk onto the sand flats. Full breakfast hamper included. Play some pétanque (bocce) or tennis, then relax in the solar-heated pool.
PROS
- excellent hosts with wide local knowledge
- bird-watching opportunities on the sand flats
- right in the heart of wine country
CONS
- out in the country
- might be too buttoned up for some
- very expensive
