Luxury Holidays in the South Island

Natural beauty and romantic retreats in New Zealand

Whether hiking around the tree-lined coast of Nelson, skiing in the towering ranges of the Southern Alps, swimming with dolphins off the coast of Kaikoura or simply touring the sun-kissed vineyards of Marlborough, your time on New Zealand’s South Island can be as active or laid-back as you like.

Maori legend runs deep throughout, their traditions and craftsmanship inspired by the same landscapes that remain as dramatic to this day, while modern towns and cities such as Christchurch and Dunedin reveal the influence of British settlers at every turn. 

New Zealand prides itself in its commitment to conservation providing endless wide-open space to enjoy the peace and solitude amongst rare and exotic wildlife.
