Rosewood Cape Kidnappers
Rosewood Cape Kidnappers is a luxury resort in New Zealand featuring cottage suites, ocean views, a working farm, and a championship golf course designed by Tom Doak.
In 2001 the Robertson family acquired a second farm, this time in the stunning Hawke's Bay on the east coast of the North Island. Following a similar vision to Kauri Cliffs, this farm would also become the site of a championship golf course, this time designed by Tom Doak. Soon after in 2007, The Farm at Cape Kidnappers welcomed its first guest, becoming the family's second luxury lodge property.
Rosewood Cape Kidnappers sits atop rolling hills edged by dramatic cliffs commanding vast ocean views, and an ever-present horizon. Home to a working farm, this unique resort in New Zealand also boasts one of the world's leading golf courses and is a sanctuary for some of the country's most precious flora and fauna.
With 24 ultra-cosy and spacious cottage suites and a four-bedroom Owner’s Cottage - all with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean - a stay at the Relais & Chateaux Cape Kidnappers is truly “farm luxe” at its best. Your stay at The Lodge includes breakfast, pre-dinner drinks with hors d’oeuvres and gourmet dinner.
