Sure to wow, Helena Bay is one of the few true beachfront resorts in New Zealand.
On the northeast corner of New Zealand’s North Island, Helena Bay’s 800 acres of ocean frontage includes three kilometres of pristine coastline with four private beaches. National Geographic Traveller Magazine ranked this location second equal in The World’s Top Rated Islands, Coastlines and Beaches.


On exclusive use basis, Helena Bay can accommodate up to 14 guests over their five suites. Each is 135 square meters with full ocean views, located just metres from the water. There are also a number of rooms available for staff. Within the Main House discover a library, lounge, and informal and formal dining areas. The spa houses a state-of-the-art gym, sauna, steam room, plunge pool, and massage and treatment rooms. Outside is a fire pit, 25 metre heated swimming pool and tennis court. On property activities include hiking, biking, claybird shooting, farm tours and tennis. Head out on Helena Bay’s cruising vessel Ruru to fish, dive or relax.
Take one of the electric four-wheel-drive buggies, along with a gourmet picnic, and explore the farm where you will meet alpacas, Kunekune pigs and Wagyu cattle.

We have been blown away by everything - hotels, food, people, golf, wine - the list is endless. You did an amazing job

Planning a 7 week trip is daunting enough without the complications of COVID cancellations, rebookings, and closures. Yet every connection, every transportation detail, every accommodation, every meal, everything was flawless.
From our arrival in Sydney .. to our last stop in Queenstown .. we will carry with us the best memories of our trip and all of your efforts. The incredible private boat tours .. the bespoke wine tours with the best guides .. our accommodations .. and the excellent itinerary and pacing, made for a perfect trip.
We can't thank Southern Crossings enough for making this trip all, and more, than we had imagined. You allowed us to see the best of your countries: the people, the beauty, the culture. Five stars, a blue ribbon, and a gold medal to everyone at Southern Crossings!




Your country, its people and your team could not have made us feel more welcome.
Thank you for all the special moments you enabled us to experience.
