Rosewood Cape Kidnappers

Perched on cliffs above the Pacific, this Rosewood resort on New Zealand's North Island doubles as a working sheep farm, so the view from your lodge might include a flock being herded below. A resident astronomer leads stargazing tours after dark, and the Cape Kidnappers gannet colony is a short walk along the headland. Hawke's Bay wine country sits practically at the gate. Forbes Four Star.
