The Emerald celebrates its thirtieth anniversary this year. To usher in this milestone, the team hosted a celebratory event on Thursday 10 April with local businesses, treating guests to delicious canapes, beverages and cake. 

The managers, James Botting and Sam Miller, took guests on a tour of the Emerald Penthouse. Freshly designed by Stewart Harris, who also designed Millbrook Resort and the Hilton Queenstown, the new two-bedroom retreat has modern amenities and breezy, spacious open-plan living bathed in natural light. Its joyful, colourful, coastal colours personify Takapuna.

Reinforcing The Emerald’s support of the community, owner and managing director Diane Foreman launched The Emerald Card, an exclusive membership card that gives local businesses fixed, preferential rates on all rooms, including the penthouse. Business owners can book rooms for their family, staff, clients, suppliers and contractors and know they’re staying in comfort, with the very best of Takapuna metres from their door.
