Peppers
Retreats
Peppers was established in 1984 when Peppers Guest House
opened in the Hunter Valley, New South Wales. At the
time, the short break market was still in its infancy
but the concept of a contemporary style guesthouse
offering relaxation in luxury surrounds was an instant
success. Twenty-two years later, Peppers Retreats,
Resorts and Hotels now offers a collection of nineteen
indulgent escapes throughout regional Australia and New
Zealand and is expanding steadily as demand for
luxurious 'getaways' rises.

The Outback
The
Outback really is an exciting area for all sorts of
exploration. I recall the first time I went there was
during a school “field trip” when I was in 10th
grade. Wow, ‘The Rock’ (Uluru) looked so big and awesome
the first time I saw it, and I remember I couldn’t wait
to climb it and my good friend Neal and I raced to the
top! We camped in tents that visit, and on my last trip,
I again stayed in a tent – but very different!

Southern
Africa
As
soon as you land in South Africa, you know you are in a
different place. The smell of the bush is around you
even at the airport. It is invigorating and special to
say the least and you know right away that this is bound
to be an adventure you will never forget.

Vanuatu
For
those unfamiliar with Vanuatu, surely one of the first
things you will notice is the friendliness of the locals
and the relaxed atmosphere that is immediately evident
upon touchdown in Port Vila, the island nation’s capital
and largest city. Indeed customs, immigration and
baggage claim is even made to seem less of a mundane
experience by the presence of a string band belting out
some upbeat local tunes as visitors casually wait in
line.

Queensland
Having been born in Australia and now living on the East
Coast of the United States, each time I fly Downunder to
Oz, I still say I’m going home! I suppose that is
because of the friendliness that the Aussie’s exude, not
just to the welcome Americans, but to everyone –
including their own! It is so nice to arrive and hear a
cheery “G’day” at the immigration counter when you land
in Australia, “Have a great time while you’re here!”

New Zealand
Arriving in Christchurch airport this time was
definitely the most exciting! I knew that this New
Zealand journey would be filled with fresh experiences
and new adventures. Certainly, I had been to New Zealand
many times (in fact, close to 30 by now). However, this
particular trip was to be one of discovery and
exploration.

Cook Islands
A web
of 15 islands, the “Cooks” possess the charm of a tiny
South Seas trading post and the beauty of a Polynesian
paradise rivaling that of Bora Bora. Hire a motor
scooter and buzz past snow white beaches on the Ara Tapu
road or weave your way through fields of paw paw on the
older inland road. Shop for popular souvenirs like
wooden carvings of the well-endowed fisherman god ‘Tangaroa,’
or take a class in Maori medicine on a Cultural Village
Tour.
