Designed by Studio John Irving, the Clubhouse Suites at The Hills hunker into the landscape, cut out of the land rather than built onto it, each defined from afar by the plane of its roof balanced carefully above. Standalone two-bedroom units for visitor accommodation, these are luxury suites, suitable for those seeking quiet relaxation or a place to recount the day’s adventures, all the same.
Accessed via a private laneway directly behind the clubhouse, the floor plan is defined by private outdoor living spaces on every side, with full-height joinery and clerestory windows that push each room outward beneath its cantilever roof form.
A central, generous kitchen and dining open to a private, north-facing courtyard with a wood-burning fireplace and spa pool, sheltered from the elements and usable in all seasons. The main living space opens to a west-facing terrace with expansive alpine views over the 18th fairway and out across the Wakatipu basin.
Two spacious ensuite bedrooms, each open to its own outdoor patio, private and secluded. Each suite offers a powder room, a scullery, its own laundry, a secure owner’s locker, and ample storage throughout.
