Fodor's Expert Review The Resurgence
574 Riwaka Valley Rd., Motueka, Tasman, 7198, New Zealand
Editor's Note: This location is reported to be under new ownership and therefore this review may contain inaccuracies.
Free-standing chalets and villas, and four lodge rooms in the main house, are surrounded by native forest and stunning scenery and offer every luxury. Hosts Clare and Peter share their love of the natural environment, especially at the complimentary predinner drinks or the table d'hôte dinner to follow (that is if you've booked a luxury dinner bed-and-breakfast package). This retreat sits under the Takaka Hill, seemingly far from civilization, yet just 20 minutes from Motueka. Babies under 12 months are welcomed, but not children ages 1–18.
PROS
- gorgeous scenery and terrific hosts
- massage and therapeutic treatments available
- walking tracks through the property
CONS
- long, winding driveway is quite narrow and steep in places
- villas and chalets are away from the main house, with gravel walks between
- two-night minimum stay
