Manaakitanga at the Marina
Welcome to Te Ākau Roa Restaurant & Bar — our in-house restaurant where manaakitanga and the spirit of te ao Māori infuse every dining experience. Guided by our very own local Head Chef, we celebrate Northland with dishes inspired by kai moana and the bounty of the land, crafted to honour Ngāti Wai's deep connection to place.
Overlooking the Tūtūkākā Marina, Te Ākau Roa is where culture, flavour, and world-class skill come together to create a taste of Northland you'll never forget.
