Azur Lodge, NZ

Best Hidden Gem in the South Pacific 2008

When people describe homes as idyllic, this is what they mean…

What a beautiful room.

The interiors are so well done, so appropriate for the Lodge.

I imagine there are many great gatherings spaces
throughout the Lodge.

Check those views out the window!

I wonder how much sun baking weather they get down there???

Outdoor fire
that would be an amazing place to be early evenings…

Pretty, yes?
