Azur

Azur is a distinctively contemporary lodge located on a hilltop overlooking some of the most spectacular scenery in New Zealand. Set among native trees and with stunning panoramic vistas of Lake Wakatipu, The Remarkables, Cecil Peak and Queenstown, Azur is known for its privacy, discretion and serenity. With its contemporary design and emphasis on understated luxury, Azur is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the stunning Queenstown scenery.

Azur features a dining room and library/lounge where guests can enjoy a typical New Zealand breakfast or an evening glass of one of the region's outstanding wines, along with samplers of the freshest local produce. Azur's 9 villas are designed to allow guests to absorb the incredible views in chic luxury and total privacy. Each villa has a gas fireplace and a private deck and lounge area. The bathrooms are modeled on those of some of the world's great hotels and include dual vanities, rainforest shower heads and spa tubs positioned in the window to be enjoyed either indoor or outdoor. Azur's super king-size beds are dressed with the finest 300-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets and pillows and duvets filled with pure goose down. Every room has complimentary wireless Internet access, a DVD player and its own bar.
