“An old-meets new boutique hotel, with art deco features, set on the waterfront in the charming fishing village of Ahuriri in Napier. Retro styled suites are light and bright with floor to ceiling windows, softly patterned fabrics and large living areas. A charming base to explore the region from.”

Top 10 beach hotels and campsites on New Zealand’s

Advertisement It’s easy to fill a few days in the Hawke’s Bay region: there are vineyards to explore, wide beaches, and lush, hilly hiking terrain. The centrepiece of the area is Napier, a seaside town that was almost completely destroyed by an earthquake in 1931 and then rebuilt in art deco style.
