Three ways
to stay
Two safari villas and Tuki
Each is a private sanctuary — beautifully styled, fully equipped, and set among the vines for total relaxation.
Safari Villa — Pinot
Super King (Twin Split) · Queen · Double · Sleeps up to 6
Our premier tent — perfectly designed for romantic escapes. Complete with private outdoor bath for stargazing soaks, a crackling fire pit, and the finest vineyard and countryside vistas.
Safari Villa — Savvy
Super King (Twin Split) · 2 King Single Beds · Sleeps up to 4
Beautifully styled and utterly peaceful. Savvy is ideal for couples seeking a refined retreat — every detail considered for comfort, with a fully equipped kitchenette, fire pit and private vineyard surroundings.
Something completely different
The Tuki Villa · New for Summer
Tuki Villa
Queen Bed · Modern Ensuite · Two Guests
Something quite different from the tents. Tuki is dark, moody and unapologetically romantic — fluted timber panelling, a queen bed, and a full wall of glass facing west over the rows. There is no glass to either side, and that is deliberate: the view belongs to you and nobody else. Inside there is a brand new modern ensuite and a full kitchenette; outside, your own fire pit, angled at the vines and the sunset behind them.
Named for the Tukituki River that runs the length of our boundary — and for the wine we make from these vines.
Open from 5 January 2027 · two-night minimum · two guests. Bookings are now open — secure your summer dates today.
Stay a little longer
“Most guests tell us they wish they’d booked another night.”
Discover our curated itineraries and experience Hawke’s Bay like a local — wineries, cycle trails, coastal villages and long slow mornings among the vines.
- Romance Among the Vines — outdoor bath, sunsets & stargazing
- Cycle, Sip & Stay — ride straight onto the Hawke’s Bay Trails
- Taste of Hawke’s Bay — cellar doors, markets & vineyard lunches
- Slow Living Retreat — do very little, beautifully
When the sky puts on a show
“We sat by the fire until midnight and never once looked at our phones.”
There are no streetlights among the vines. Once the sun drops behind the ranges, the sky opens right up — and the evening slows to the pace of a crackling fire pit and a glass of something local.
- Fire pit — laid and ready at every villa
- Stargazing soak — the private outdoor bath at Pinot
- Dark skies — rural Clive, well clear of the town glow
- Electric blankets — for when you finally head in

Your Comfort Matters
Our glamping experience is designed for two guests sharing a luxurious Super King bed. If you’d prefer separate beds, simply book for one guest and add an additional bed during your reservation. This allows our team to prepare your tent with the correct bedding configuration before you arrive. The additional bed charge helps cover the extra linen, laundering, bed preparation and housekeeping time required to present your accommodation to the premium standard every guest can expect at Villas & Vines.
