To celebrate its thirtieth anniversary, The Emerald Inn is ushering in an exciting new chapter. As part of its re-brand to 'The Emerald – Takapuna Beach', the team hosted a celebratory event on Thursday 10 April with local businesses, where guests enjoyed delicious canapes, beers and wine. The new managers, James Botting and Sam Miller gave guests a tour of the Emerald Penthouse, freshly designed by Stewart Harris, who also designed Millbrook Resort and the Hilton Queenstown. Diane Foreman, owner and managing director, launched The Emerald Card, an exclusive membership card which 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. The Emerald Inn – a true gem right at the heart of Takapuna!
