The name Kerigold comes from this property's original life as a honey storage facility — keri gold, the honey produced in this part of Northland. The orchard of citrus and avocado trees was already well established when the first ten chalets were built in 2000, nestled deliberately into the trees rather than clearing them. In 2021 six hotel-style executive studios were added, and in 2026 four more high-end private studios brought the property to 20 accommodation units — every one of them set within the same orchard.
Located at 326 Kerikeri Road, less than a kilometre from Kerikeri town, the property feels like a rural retreat but puts you walking distance from restaurants, cafes and shops. In winter the citrus comes in — oranges, tangelos, grapefruit, limes and avocados, more fruit than the trees know what to do with. Guests are welcome to pick and enjoy.
Every unit has a kitchen, Sky TV, ultra-fast fibre WiFi, air conditioning, and private parking at the door. Purpose-designed accessible chalets with roll-in showers and barrier-free access are available, as are pet-friendly units for guests travelling with dogs. Get in touch and we'll help plan your stay.
