Solitaire Lodge, Rotorua, North Island: New Zealand’s Favorite Getaway
Experience one of New Zealand’s most exclusive and private lodges. Aptly named, Solitaire Lodge is situated on its own private peninsula, gazing out over Lake Tarawera and onto Mount Tarawera’s peak. And with only 10 suites, this five-star lodge offers the ultimate in privacy, with personal service that’s been recognized worldwide as virtuoso. From every luxury suite, you’ll enjoy supernatural views from floor-to-ceiling windows. The Lodge provides an exciting base for those wishing to explore the area’s natural beauty. You’ll find a slew of activities: float plane tours, jetty access to luxury charter boats, trout-fishing, bush walking, and thermal bathing. It’s here, in blissful seclusion, where you can experience the Ultimate Indulgence Package. Imagine: a 40-minute helicopter flight where you’ll stop on Mount Tarawera for a glass of champagne. A three-hour cruise aboard Clearwater Pride with lunch served. A four-course gourmet dinner (the finest in New Zealand cuisine prepared by Chef Ervin Garde), daily cocktail hour, and full breakfast each day. The two-night retreat at Solitaire Lodge also includes a bottle of Methode Champenoise and one dozen red roses. Priced from NZD 2,250 per room, per stay. Minimum two-night stay.
