What a brilliant course, and the service provided in supporting the timing of our round was much appreciated.
We head somewhere different around the country each year. Motueka is outstanding.

We all loved the course with its lush fairways,compelling trees and forgiving rough.
The greens were superb. To top it off we had wonderful warm conditions and what is foreign to us - NO WIND !!

Just a quick email to say thank you for hosting the 2024 NZ Womens Foursomes event and what an amazing job your volunteers and green staff did to make everything so amazing.
The course was beautifully presented and fairways and greens were amazing (great job Nick and team).
All of you made sure that everything ran smoothly, were very friendly and if there was a problem, got it solved.
I just love this course and will see you all next year for the Open.

I am visiting from the Coromandel Peninsula on the North Island and playing golf around New Zealand. Played your course yesterday in perfect conditions and loved it. I found the layout challenging and particularly the par-3 holes which are the longest par-3 holes I've ever played on a golf course. I shot an 87 off a 13 handicap so felt I handled the course quite well. I will certainly recommend it to anybody else who is visiting your area and I will definitely play it again on my next trip down South; whenever that will be. Chris from

I hadn't played the course previously and found it to be a hidden gem.
