The resort's three decades of hospitality experience inform every detail of wedding planning, from guest accommodations to multi-day celebration logistics.
We recently stayed at Millbrook Resort in Arrowtown, and it was truly one of the best experiences we’ve had. Our accommodation was a two-bedroom villa at Fox’s Rush, and it was absolutely outstanding. The villa was tastefully designed, spacious, and featured a beautiful balcony that opened up to a serene pond with ducks—such a charming touch! It had everything (and more) that one could possibly need for a comfortable and luxurious stay. The resort itself is expansive, impeccably maintained, and offers a sense of tranquility throughout. The staff were exceptionally helpful and welcoming, making the entire experience seamless. We enjoyed the pool and the outdoor heated pools, which were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Dining was another highlight—the food across the resort was excellent, and Kobe Japanese Restaurant stood out as particularly outstanding. Every meal was a delight! Overall, Millbrook Resort is an exceptional destination and easily one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. We will definitely be visiting again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable getaway in New Zealand.
