“New Zealand is well-known for an assortment of things – daredevil hobbies, rugby, and Lord of the Rings to name a few – but what may surprise holidaymakers is the country’s taste for the finer side of life. The luxury hotels in New Zealand are like something from a movie. In a land where dopamine levels are on the rise and there’s no shortage of outdoor explorations, it’s important to have a home base for your heart and head to rest.”
