Set on 1,000 acres of coastal paradise in the Bay of Islands, The Landing is a sanctuary of luxury, heritage, and natural beauty. With six private beaches, native forest trails, and panoramic ocean views, this retreat invites you to slow down and savor the richness of New Zealand’s far north.
Each of the four architecturally designed Residences offers a distinct experience—clifftop grandeur, beachfront serenity, vineyard immersion, or countryside calm. Whether you’re sipping estate-grown wine, spotting kiwi at dusk, or cruising the bay aboard a private vessel, The Landing delivers a deeply personal connection to land, sea, and story.
