The Farm at Cape Kidnappers has been voted the number one resort hotel in Australia and New Zealand - for the second consecutive year.
Travel & Leisure readers made their top choice in the publication's World's Best Awards 2020 this week.
The accolade is well timed for Cape Kidnappers' reopeningon August 1.
"It has indeed been a challenging year for the hospitality industry, and to be named the number one resort in Australasia is just so uplifting," said Jay Robertson, chief operating officer of the family-owned business, Robertson Lodges.
In New Zealand, the country where the "luxury lodge" phenomenon was born, and the accommodation bar is set high, he said the honour says a lot about the guest experience at The Farm at Cape Kidnappers.
"We offer a personally tailored and genuine style of hospitality, and our guests really do come first. This is truly a heartfelt honour for the entire Robertson Lodges team."
He said the award should spark travel inspiration for New Zealanders as they begin to enjoy post-lockdown breaks and holidays "in their own beautiful backyard", and also for Australians who are hopeful for a transtasman bubble soon.
