"History and heaven in the Bay of Plenty."

Located 45km from Rotorua’s wondrous geothermal activity, minutes from the vibrant city of Tauranga in the Bay of Plenty, The Hart Lodge stands majestically; its dazzling views across valleys and native forest to the Pacific Coast just as breathtaking as the influential French style interiors and historic formal gardens of this boutique luxury lodge.

With its turrets, dormer windows, glass room and many grand verandas, The Hart Lodge reflects the beauty and rich history of the Bay; A refined collection of antique and contemporary treasures at home with the modern refinements of spa pool, day spa, helipad, boutique day seminar retreat, tennis court and Parisian Room Dining room. A choice of two spacious suites, eachwith private verandas, Wifi internet and unsurpassed views: includes the Private Library Suite with Art Nouveau interiors, admirable book collection and fireplace; The Hart Suite with kitchenette, sunroom and antique Louis XVI and XV style furnishings just as inspiring.

Ideal for intimate escapes, weddings or day seminars, explore natural harbours, volcanic islands, reefs, beaches and Mount Maunganui. A Maori tour of Rotorua's many historical sites is a worthy highlight. So too game fishing, golf and nature walks to the river at the lodge.
