Pokeno, Auckland

Set atop Mount Rataroa, just one hour’s drive south of Auckland towards the Coromandel, sits Umoya Lodge.

This remote and idyllic luxury lodge draws its name from the Zulu word ‘umoja’, meaning soul, spirit and breath. True to its name, this is a place of absolute tranquility, breathtaking scenery and luxurious escapism

Surrounded by 35 acres of native bush, the Lodge's spectacular elevated position affords both stunning sea views to the Coromandel and Pacific Ocean as well as across rustic New Zealand farmland as far as the eye can see. As you wind your way up through the peaceful wood pigeon dell on arrival, you feel blissfully transported... as though you've discovered a well kept secret.

The Lodge's architecture is spacious and sophisticated, with the LUXURY SUITE separated from the main Lodge by way of a generous entry foyer and lotus pond, and THE RETREAT in a completely separate unit adjacent to the Main Lodge. Guests can relax in the main Lodge or enjoy the peace and seclusion of their accommodation, where every attention to detail has been made.

And as exclusive guests at the Lodge at any one time, your service will always be considerate and attentive.

Optional 4 course evening dinnner with wine is available - $80.00 per person
