A luxury stay awaits you

There are few places in the world where you can enjoy opulent luxury and true wilderness at the same time – Falcon Brae Villa is one

-

Nestled in a secluded valley with panoramic views of soaring mountains and the mighty Motueka River – Falcon Brae Villa is a one-of-a-kind property.

Book a stay here and you can expect the ultimate luxury experience, flawless service and even a private chef. The villa itself is a sight to behold with its architectu­ral designed and unique elliptical falcon wing roofs. “There’s not a single person who doesn’t walk through the front door and say ‘wow’. It has 360-degree views over the mountains of Kahurangi National Park, and a quiet, calming atmosphere,” says managing director John Kerr.

Inside, there’s a central lounge with a 5m-high ceiling, sunken bar, grand piano, high-tech gym, media theatre, three dining areas and a games room. The lush outdoor area boasts views of the mountains and Motueka River and includes an outdoor pool, heated spa, outdoor dining area and even a helipad terrace.

Thanks to its location 50 minutes from Nelson and between three of New Zealand’s most scenic national parks, there’s no shortage of incredible things to do.

A short walk from the property, you’ll find some of New Zealand’s (and the world’s) best fly fishing in the Motueka River, known for its population of over-sized wild brown trout.

Guests also have access to a helicopter for scenic heli-tours over the stunning Abel Tasman, Nelson Lakes and Kahurangi national parks or get amongst it with walking, hiking and cruising on the lakes.

Falcon Brae is less than an hour’s drive from 28 world-class wineries and sits in the heart of New Zealand’s hop-growing region and surrounded by craft beer breweries.
