A weekend in Palmy without a packed itinerary
11 February 2026 · Ruby Tu
Sometimes a good weekend is a walk, a nice dinner and plenty of time in a comfortable room.
Get out for a while
Try Victoria Esplanade or part of the Manawatū River Pathway. Head into town for a coffee afterwards, or ask us for a few local suggestions.
Then stay in
Have a shower, settle into the spa and open your book. Bring a few favourite snacks. There’s no requirement to make every hour productive when you’re away for the weekend.
Take the morning slowly
Breakfast is available from 7am to 9am. Ask us about the options when you book, then leave yourself time to enjoy it before heading home.
