Four finalists of 2025 Miss Universe New Zealand spent last Friday evening and Saturday at the Lost Spring, Whitianga. This was the competition organiser’s first choice of venue for the finalists to take photos and to unwind after the whirlwind of the Miss Universe NZ 2025 Finals. These four Queens took a well-deserved moment to breathe, reflect, and realign at Lost Spring, Whitianga resort.

Where else could you go shopping for late night snacks at your local supermarket in safety and dressed in The Lost Spring bathrobes? 

2026 Miss Universe New Zealand has already booked The Lost Spring for the Miss Universe finalists to come and enjoy some post- finals relaxation and pampering.

Operations Manager Deborah Kelsall said, “We are very pleased to have confirmed the contract with the Miss Universe organisers for 2026. These finalists all have incredibly busy and progressive lifestyles.  They are business owners and managers, lawyers, and the Miss Universe New Zealand, Abby Sturgin, is a policewoman. The women are strong, and feminine and love this kind of event as well as living a full life their professional vocations.” 

 “We are very proud of this last weekend” said Maria Balan, CEO of The Lost Spring.
