Fancy golf on a glacier? Here’s your chance.
The troika of golf and resort properties owned and operated by American hedge fund tycoon Julian Robertson has reissued its Ultimate New Zealand Golf Package for 2013-14.
There is a new price structure with further golfing options – including heli-golf on glaciers and mountain tops in and around the South Island resort of Queenstown.
The Ultimate New Zealand Golf Package, first issued in 2011, now includes nine nights spread across three lodges and four courses on the country’s two main islands, North and South.
Six golf rounds are included in the Ultimate NZ Golf Package: two at Cape Kidnappers; two at Kauri Cliffs, and two more in Queenstown, one at Jack’s Point Golf Club and the other at The Hills Golf Club, new home to the NZ PGA Championship.
The nine nights comprising the Ultimate NZ Golf Package are split equally among Robertson’s lodges: The Farm at Cape Kidnappers in Hawkes Bay; the Lodge at Kauri Cliffs in the Bay of Islands, and Matakauri Lodge, located on the shores of Lake Wakatipu in Queenstown.
Per-person pricing ranges from about $8,000 in the low season (May through September) to $10,000 in the high season, which runs December 15, 2013 through March 2014, excluding airfare and helicopter tours.
