Escape to a luxury lodge

Fiordland National Park is located in the southwest of the South Island. It is a nature lover’s paradise named on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Ancient rainforests, snow-capped mountains, tumbling waterfalls and the remarkable Milford and Doubtful Sound fiords.

A luxury lodge set amongst rolling hills and grass tussocks with spectacular views over Lake Te Anau and the mountains of Fiordland National Park. The striking natural timber and local river stone run throughout the lodge, creating an intimate and spacious environment.

The perfect base to explore Fiordland National Park and all its beauty. And the picturesque town of Te Anau is only a ten-minute drive from the lodge. With a variety of restaurants and cafés to choose from. Or dine at the on-site restaurant, which focuses on fresh and seasonal produce.

An overnight boat trip is recommended through Doubtful Sound to access the more remote areas of Fiordland National Park. An abundance of wildlife can be spotted including dolphins, fur seals, penguins and the cheeky Kea bird. There is so much to see and do!
