Our Premier Offerings

Private Overnight Experience

As twilight descends, make the most of your private floating Bay of Islands luxury lodge to create long-lasting memories. Sip on premium New Zealand wines on a secluded deck, dine by candlelight on fresh seafood prepared by your private chef, and be rocked to sleep by gentle waves. 

While the Bay of Islands offers year-round beauty, the summer months from December through March deliver long, balmy evenings perfect for twilight swims and intimate anchoring in hidden coves. 

Premium Lodgings

We combine luxury accommodation and exploration into one exceptional package on board our vessel. Unlike traditional land-based options, your exclusive floating lodge lets you explore the region's 144 islands by bringing your premium lodging directly to each magnificent destination, eliminating the need to pack and unpack.

During your Bay of Islands overnight cruise, you can relax on a spacious deck area for sunbathing, indulge in the finest cuisine in our intimate dining space, and relish the sophisticated interiors that rival boutique hotels.
