We initially encountered a hiccup because the door of our room was jammed and we couldn’t get in. Eventually we were offered a new room and we were upgraded to a different room. Although the new room was clean, there were some cellar spiders around the room. Wasn’t a big deal for us - just thought that they weren’t expecting for that room to be used so it wasn’t really cleaned thoroughly. Overall, great experience. Love that it’s very tranquil. Will come back in the future.

Sweet golf resort 40 minutes from Central Auckland. Andy and his staff are great, the villas have nice views of the water, restaurant chef and food are top tier, and the golf course is challenging, but a lot of fun.

Beautiful location. Showers spa and handbasin presure almost non existent. Went to restaurant and sevice lacking, it took over 1/2hr for drinks to even be served and when the food finally came out it was inedible, sadly. Im not 1 usually to complain or put a review like this but Ridges please take note and look into these.

Stayed the night after a 21st party that was held at this resort. It is so convenient. The next day my husband went out for a golf session with our son and a friend. Breakfast is nice for just $30 not a lot of choice but just enough. Would come back again

I normally have a very nice, quiet stay at Rydges, which I book from time to time for work. I find the cottages an excellent place to hunker down and work on particularly intense projects because of how quiet and out of the way it is but this time I had a less than satisfactory stay. Adjoining cottage had a massive party on my first night - so only about 2 hours sleep that night, and I was completely withered by dozens of mosquitos on the second despite keeping all my windows and doors closed - so again, no sleep again. Not a lot management can do about either of those things but there were lots of empty cottages so there was absolutely no need to place me (staying on my own) into a cottage adjoining a wedding party. A plug in mozzie repellent being made available in the room would have been an easy fix for the second night. I went home absolutely shattered. The real kicker was the internet being almost completely unusable for the duration of my stay. I could barely load emails much less get any work done - I had to drive to Botany and do my Teams calls in a coffee shop, completely undermining the whole point of my stay. Not sure I'll return to be honest.

Amazing size, great venue for weddings
We were taken aback by how large the villa was - The living/bedroom was massive, and the bathroom area was the size of a living room. I would recommend Formosa for couples wanting to get married. The size of the villa is more than sufficient to accommodate a wedding crew (make up artist, hair stylist, etc). The only downside for me was the insects - Being next to the golf course, you will see insects. We saw many mosquitoes during our stay there. If you don't like insects, I would recommend preparing an insect spray. We purchased the breakfast buffet option for our stay. It was convenient because we had a busy schedule ahead of us. However, if we had time to go out for breakfast, we would have done that. The food was very basic with some cereal, bread, jam, scrambled eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon and sausages. There weren't any salads. However, the food we had at our wedding reception was amazing, and we received positive feedback from our guests.
