The romantic climax of The Bachelorette Australia will take place at Matakana, with the reality TV bride-to-be handing out her last rose at the end of an intimate New Zealand getaway.

The final episode of the debut series, which screens in Australia next week, was filmed around Auckland and Rotorua in July.

Bachelorette Sam Frost visited New Zealand for the first time to film the 90-minute episode, which will feature the Melbourne beauty and her last two suitors taking part in white-water rafting, luxury sailing on Waitemata Harbour and a trip to Waiheke Island.

She will then choose "the one" at the final rose ceremony at a regional park in Matakana, north of Auckland.

Sam said her trip to New Zealand had taken her breath away. "I absolutely loved it. New Zealand is stunning! I couldn't get over how gorgeous it was. All of the people in New Zealand were so lovely and welcoming and there is still so much more I want to explore."

The across-the-ditch getaway was supported by Tourism New Zealand.

"We're confident the final episode will inspire viewers to consider what New Zealand has to offer," said Tourism NZ general manager for Australia, Tony Saunders.
