On the 6th of November the World Boutique Hotel Awards were held at a gala dinner in London. Winners across a number of categories were chosen from a list of more than 300 nominees in 80 countries.
As part of the award process each property received a personal visit from a judge to ensure a truly authentic guest experience. And while there were a few New Zealand properties included, we wanted to call special attention to Te Koi at Bronte as a winner in 3 sections:
* Winner 2019 – Australasia’s Best New Hotel
* Winner 2019 – Australasia’s Best Chic Elegance Hotel
* Winner 2019 – World’s Best New Boutique Hotel

As part of our due diligence to remain up to speed and bring the best to our clients, The Best of New Zealand team consistently vets properties during ownership changes, restorations, etc. Te Koi was no exception and we could not be more pleased with the direction this property has taken. From it’s beautiful setting outside of Mapua to the exquisite meals provided… it is simply a great place to relax and enjoy a luxury accommodation in the Nelson-Tasman area.
In a recent email Ali stated, “We are very proud of this accomplishment and thank you for your support over the last 2 seasons as the new owners of Te Koi in this special little region of New Zealand and the world!”
