Only accessible by water taxi or helicopter, a trip to this secluded haven of 11 bungalows shrouded in wild bush is well worth the effort for the food alone. Argentinian-born Executive Chef, Francisco Fioriti runs the intimate Foredeck restaurant and there are few places finer to sample the greatest hits of Marlborough’s natural larder; stand out dishes include 'Wakanui Blue' beef fillet with sweet corn, smoked croquettes and summer vegetables and Pan fried snapper with octopus, ratatouille, potato and squid.
