In 1931 a devastating earthquake nearly levelled the city of Napier. It was rebuilt in the style of the times, and is now considered the Art Deco Capital of the world. The vineyards of Hawkes Bay are all within easy reach of Napier. Another attraction is the gannet colony at Cape Kidnappers.

The major entertainment on the road from Taupo to Napier is the fantastic scenery. Theres a bit of everything - rugged hills, beautiful valleys, gentle plains and huge vistas. At Tarawera you can walk to the hot springs, which are above the Waipunga River. You might also want to stop at the Waiarua Falls lookout, to view the twin waterfalls.

We are pleased to announce that Kauri Cliffs sister lodge will be opening in November 2007. Located on the North Island in Hawkes Bay, one of New Zealands most important wine districts, Cape Kidnappers has a rich history beginning with its discovery by

Captain James Cook in 1769.

The new lodge, or The Farm as it is called, promises to be a five star experience. Cape Kidnappers is set on a 6,000 acre sheep and cattle farm which encompasses land reminiscent of Montana but plunges

800 feet straight into the sea.

On the exterior, the lodge will resemble a cluster of farm buildings. Local materials are incorporated into graciously scaled rooms full of natural light and unexpected treasures. Comfort and ease are at a premium with each room taking on a character of its own while harkening back to the rural feeling of the New Zealand sheep station and wine country. Spacious cottages, each with breathtaking views, open to large porches overlooking a stunning Pacific panorama. The cottages feature calm colors and materials that suggest a traditional rural farm yet contain all of the modern amenities one could wish for.

Inclusions: Accommodation, pre dinner drinks, dinner and breakfast, complimentary mini-bar including domestic beers (excludes liquor and wine), and use of all lodge facilities excluding golf.

CAPE KIDNAPPERS

by Tom Doak

Our goal in designing golf courses is to create interesting holes you wouldn't find anywhere else. That wasn't hard to do at Cape Kidnappers, because the site is not like anywhere else in golf. If it were any bigger or any more dramatic, it would probably be cordoned off as a national park. It's an overwhelming experience to stand up on the cliffs, 140 meters above sea level, and look out across the waves far below in Hawke's Bay.

Cape Kidnappers is not true links terrain, with the wrinkles of sand dunes; instead the land tilts toward the sea as a series of ridges jutting out toward the edge of the cliffs. Yet, the play is seaside golf at its finest. The surface is firm and fast, the conditions can be windy, and the player who can control his trajectory will be master of the course. You'll hit shots over the tops of the tea trees, and play along the edges of deep ravines. If you stray on your approaches, you'll actually hope to get caught up in bunkers hanging off the green's edge, some of them deeper than you've ever seen before. At the twelfth and fifteenth you'll play right out to land's end, to greens as Bernard Darwin once described the 17th at North Berwick in Scotland:

"Then comes the crucial shot, the approach on to [a] green that slopes right away from us to the sea -- without the ghost of a charitable back wall. It is so frightening that we are strongly tempted to approach it on the instalment system, and it is really wonderful how many instalments may be necessary, as with limbs palsied with terror, we push and poke the ball over that treacherous and slippery surface."

Gratuity for the caddies (NZD$20 - $35) will be paid by the guests directly to the caddie.

Inclusions: Green Fees, Electric Cart, Caddie
