Perched above the wild west coast of Muriwai, Parihoa is a private coastal estate just forty minutes from Auckland.

Across hundreds of acres, rolling farmland gives way to native bush, wetlands and dramatic clifftops overlooking the Tasman Sea. At its heart, contemporary architecture and expansive event spaces sit quietly within the landscape.

Whether you're planning a leadership retreat, rewarding your team or hosting valued clients, Parihoa offers a distinctive destination where every gathering feels both effortless and extraordinary.

The Estate
Event Space

Your event at Parihoa includes exclusive use of The Gallery, The Courtyard, The Lawn and The Barn. 
A collection of indoor and outdoor spaces designed to be used together, or transformed individually as needed throughout the event.

The Gallery

Set within a private coastal estate, Parihoa offers hundreds of acres of rolling farmland, dramatic clifftops, native bush and walking trails, creating opportunities for events to extend well beyond the walls of the venue.

Host welcome drinks overlooking the Tasman Sea, gather guests around evening sunsets, organise guided walks across the property or simply allow time to explore the landscape between sessions. Whether your programme spans a single afternoon or several days, the estate becomes part of the experience.

With exclusive use of the event spaces and access to remarkable locations for photography, filming and outdoor activities, every event can be tailored to feel entirely unique.

Capacity:
Up to 100 guests

At 194m², The Gallery accommodates up to 100 guests within a flexible, open-plan interior. Full-height bi-fold doors span two sides of the building, opening westward to the lawn and showcasing views of the cliffs and the vast Tasman Sea. On the eastern side, they open onto The Courtyard, a sheltered space protected from the prevailing westerly winds.

Filled with natural light throughout the day and framed by spectacular west coast sunsets each evening, the space captures uninterrupted views across the Tasman Sea and transitions effortlessly between indoor and outdoor entertaining.

Integrated presentation technology, heating and cooling, guest amenities and dedicated planning support ensure every event runs seamlessly. Whether configured theatre-style, banquet, cocktail or exhibition format, The Gallery adapts to the unique requirements of each occasion.

Whether supporting conferences, multi-day programmes or large-scale productions, The Barn adds flexibility without compromising the guest experience.
