My top picks in NZ (not in order but definitely this group):Cape KidnappersKinlochKauri CliffsJacks PointThe Hills (on reputation - I haven’t played it)There’s a case for Millbrook and Wairakei to be in here but personally I think they’re just a tier down (I’ll probably get flamed for saying that).And finally there’s Tara Iti which has priced itself out of the stratosphere so doesn’t feature in ‘normal golfers’ conversations. Its super exlusive and that doesn’t really sit well with with golfers over here. I’m sure the owners don’t care though!If you’re wanting to visit and stay in one place and play great courses, I totally agree with Queenstown as the pick. It’s an awesome place with heaps to do. Non-golfers would have a great time too.
