Residential -
Multi-generational and aspirational property on Wellington’s rugged coast leaves a fine legacy.
Boomrock, Wellington’s premier hospitality and entertainment venue, is nestled amid some of New Zealand’s most picturesque landscapes, making it a preferred choice for diverse clientele from corporate, private and international sectors.
Renowned for offering warm hospitality, exquisite New Zealand wines and local cuisine, all while delivering unforgettable experiences with a keen emphasis on sustainability, Boomrock has captivated everyone that’s been wined, dined, wedded, and welcomed to this extraordinary coastal escape.
Sitting on a clifftop within expansive Papanui Station overseeing the wild Tasman Sea, the Boomrock hospitality business coexists with the working farm’s daily rhythms.
Papanui Station has been in the Eastwick Family for three generations, with Boomrock established in the late-1990s and successfully operating on its own title for 27 years.
Boomrock stretches across 132ha of spectacular coastal farmland, with 1.5km of private coastline and breathtaking views over the Cook Strait to the South Island.
A recent addition to Boomrock’s hospitality amenities is Pipinui Point, an exclusive two-bedroom self-contained boutique accommodation which offers private luxury in a spectacular setting.
Boomrock is one of New Zealand’s most renowned wedding locations, wowing guests with the finest of New Zealand hospitality, and where the land is bathed in photo-perfect golden light at day’s end.
It is equally renowned as a corporate retreat, and a playground with a variety of exhilarating activities, including the 900m tarmac private racetrack which is used for luxury vehicle launches and corporate experiences.
Boomrock Lodge and Pipinui Point both hold Qualmark Gold status, the best-in-class sustainable tourism quality assurance standard, while the Eastwick’s astute guardianship will be rewarded when Kiwi are soon released on Boomrock.
Boomrock Wellington is for sale as a freehold going concern, comprising the land, its built assets, business interests including extensive database, strong forward bookings, operating consents, and the Boomrock brand, which is recognised for its excellence, scalability and operational efficiency.
It offers stakeholders an investment in a proven and enduringly popular brand with significant growth potential both nationally and internationally.
The Eastwick family has always loved entertaining and hosting people, and had the ultimate location to extend that hospitality more widely, saying “it’s been a real privilege to share part of our world with so many.”
Mark Hourigan of Bayleys says a visionary new owner could take the proven Boomrock operation to yet another level, building on the Eastwick family’s outstanding foundation.
“The hospitality, tourism and guest accommodation offerings could be expanded with no compromise to privacy, and there’s also potential to subdivide some of the land.
“Boomrock tells the story of a resilient farming family that has transcended traditional farming constraints to create a sought-after destination with a light footprint on the land.”
Boomrock is around 30-minutes’ drive or a six-minute helicopter flight from Wellington CBD, and a 45-minute drive from Wellington International Airport.
The highly regarded and successful business of Kauri Bay Boomrock was established nine years ago with the brand aesthetic and values that Boomrock instils. It continues to be an industry leader and is not associated with this sale.
