Hotel information

Relax and unwind in the private luxury of Mangapapa. Once the stately home of world-renowned businessman Sir James Wattie and his wife, Lady Gladys Wattie, the hotel offers the perfect balance of stunning scenery and esteemed history.

Set in the heart of the world’s 12th greatest wine capital, Mangapapa is ideal for a gourmet getaway. From food and vineyard tours with a private chauffeur to wine-paired meals, there’s something for everyone.

Just five minutes away sits the quaint town of Havelock where you can explore unique boutiques – and the coastal city of Napier, just 20 minutes away, features exquisite art deco architecture.

Back at the hotel, you can relax in one of the 12 exclusive suites set across the Historic Homestead, Cottage, and Lady Wattie buildings. For a small and personal escape, look nowhere else.

In the morning, wake up to a marvellous breakfast in the elegant conservatory before visiting the separate dining room for a delicious dinner in the evening. Whether you want a sumptuous five-course meal or sophisticated high tea, it’s sure to be an unforgettable experience.

For laid-back luxury, enjoy the open fireplace in the central lounge while sipping on luscious wine. With lots of outdoor seating areas and alfresco dining in the summer, the options are endless.

On top of this, the stunning surrounding area has so much to offer and is just waiting to be explored. Hike the world-famous Te Mata Peak or play golf on the multiple courses including the award-winning Cape Kidnappers. Between September and April, you can even spot gannet colonies at the headland – an experience to be cherished forever.

After a day of exploring, unwind in the outdoor pool or spa jacuzzi. Not only that, but you can also take a romantic stroll through the vast orchard gardens to see the resident sheep and chickens. Or why not challenge your partner to a game of tennis on Mangapapa’s grass tennis court?
