The ultimate guide to all the wine hotels in Otago, New Zealand. We've carefully selected only the top-rated hotels that has its very own vineyard or winery.
The attention to details is evident from the moment you’re greeted welcome to the romantic and adults-only Gibbston Valley Lodge and Spa. From the well-kept tropical gardens to the spectacular pool area and the hotel's luxurious suites, everything is so well thought of. Even the winery food and drinks are out of this world, and we loved every single dish we had. The chefs here are undeniably brilliant! The on-site spa was another highlight and we enjoyed a wide range of rejuvenating treatments and massages. We really recommend this place for a honeymoon or a kids-free vacation in New Zealand!
Not long ago, we had the absolute pleasure to stay a couple of nights at Towan House at Carrick Winery. A stunning boutique hotel embedded in vineyards and some of the most beautiful landscapes of Otago. Waking up to the endless vineyard views and sipping exquisite estate wines on our private terrace - was everything we hoped for and more. The 1 rooms are warm and cozy, and the staff treats you like family. If you crave an authentic, indulgent wine-country experience, this is the place!
The combination of a small-scale boutique hotel with its own fantastic vineyard is exactly what we look for when searching the perfect wine experience. And the gorgeous Cottages at Kinross is no exception! The hotel is located in breathtaking settings in Otago and features a collection of 14 amazing suites. We love it!
