The Farm at Cape Kidnappers.

Set on 6,000 acres of rugged Hawke’s Bay pastureland, Rosewood Cape Kidnappers is a working farm reimagined as a sophisticated rural retreat. The property sits atop dramatic cliffs, offering 180-degree views of the Pacific Ocean and housing a world-renowned par 71 golf course designed by Tom Doak. The 22 suites and standalone Owner’s Cottage lean into a "country-chic" aesthetic, utilizing reclaimed wood and stone to mirror the surrounding landscape. Beyond the greens, the estate functions as a private sanctuary where guests can track wild kiwis, visit a massive gannet colony, or explore the hills via Can-Am. Dining is an elevated, hyper-local affair, with nightly menus built around produce grown in the onsite gardens and paired with the region’s famous Syrahs.
