What I REALLY would love right now is to get away and be spoiled, somewhere luxurious like...
Much as I love the city, I also really need space around me (hence, living in the burbs). I quite like the sound of escaping into the Southern Alps to a chalet accessible only by helicopter.
Russell is a sweet little spot in the Bay of Islands and Eagle's Nest is probably the ultimate place to stay. Infinity pool, Jacuzzi, personal chefs and spa therapists - yes please.
Hawke's Bay is one region I haven't really explored (but would like to). As well as all the usual luxuries, I love the sound of the amazing food - straight from the veggie garden, inhouse pastry chef and local meat and seafood.
