Nestled in the beautiful Hawke’s Bay area of New Zealand, this Housekeeping Attendant spot at Rosewood Cape Kidnappers gives you a shot at working in a truly special luxury resort over the summer months. It’s a contract gig kicking off in October 2025 and wrapping up by April 2026, with full-time shifts in a place that’s all about those incredible ocean vistas and green hills. Pay is competitive, and you’ll get extras like staff meals every day and some great deals from partners. Perfect if you’re chasing a bit of adventure on a working holiday or aiming to grow in hospitality. Folks with a cleaning background from fancy hotels or resorts will fit right in, but it’s also about having good chat skills, spotting the small stuff, staying organised, and being okay with weekend work. The location’s pretty remote, so your own car is a must, plus you’ll need the right to work in New Zealand or a visa that fits.
