Where did Tiger Woods stay during the New Zealand Golf Open when it was held at Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club?
The answer is Greenmantle, a charming luxury boutique hotel, surrounded by beautifully kept gardens, tucked away in a peaceful corner of Paraparaumu.
The matter of where Woods going to stay was the talk of the town in the lead-up to the 2002 tournament, some even suggesting Kāpiti Island.

No doubt he would have enjoyed the relaxing surroundings of Greenmantle after a hard day trying to dominate at the country s converted annual golf tournament.
