New Zealand’s must-visit destination for golfers

Tucked away on the North Island’s east coast, and only 90 minutes from the centre of Auckland, lies the must-visit golf destination of 2025. Te Arai has quickly become one of ‘the’ golf destinations in the world – and for good reason. With breathtaking ocean views, pristine fairways and an array of luxury amenities, it offers everything a golfer could desire for a perfect getaway.

Te Arai’s two world-class layouts, the South and North courses, are designed by renowned architects Tom Doak and Bill Coore. Both are celebrated for their challenging layouts, natural beauty and seamless integration with the coastal landscape. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or an amateur, these courses promise a memorable round.

But Te Arai offers more than just golf. The facilities cater to relaxation and wellness, with spa services, yoga and gourmet dining featuring local cuisine. The resort also has luxurious lodges, perfect for a peaceful retreat after a day on the course. For those who love the outdoors, the surrounding area boasts white-sand beaches and nature trails for exploring.

Trust us when we say, Te Arai is more than a golf destination – it’s a serene escape where golfers can enjoy the best of sport, luxury and nature in one incredible location.
