New ZealandWe are traveling New Zealand for our 20th wedding anniversary. The staff was available and attentive, I asked for a bit of help with romantic room prep before we got there. Our communications were great, I had arranged for flowers and a nice bottle of wine to be placed in the room. When we got in the room smelled like the roses that he had picked from the gardens and the bottle was there as well. it was a lovely stay.
