Split Apple Retreat

New Zealand’s Split Apple Retreat is unlike anything you’ve ever visited before. A quiet, luxurious hideaway built high into a cliff-face right on the ocean, a few minutes away from the South Island’s stunning Abel Tasman National Park, it offers both every indulgence as well as the additional promise of exceptional good health. The Retreat’s gourmet menu is individually drawn up for guests to tak

e into account any dislikes and favourites, as well as dietary requirements, but is then designed to deliver optimal health benefits in a series of fresh, delicious, gourmet dishes. While you treat your tastebuds, relax in the knowledge that as well as doing your body a favour, it’s odds on you’ll be leaving lighter than you arrive. There’s also every opportunity at the Retreat to relax and pamper yourself with pristine surrounds, a saltwater pool on the deck, a spa and sauna, private access to beaches, massage, acupuncture, meditation guidance and other stress reduction therapies. Close by is some of the best bushwalking in New Zealand, as well as secluded beaches, sea-kayaking and a helicopter service for drop-off at even more isolated spots.
