Entering the main lounge of this luxury lodge in Glenorchy is simply breathtaking. The stunning, high-gabled, light, and airy expanse is beautifully appointed with a large gas fire at its heart, surrounded by sumptuous leather couches. The imposing view draws you through this space to the oversized picture windows, delivering 180-degree views of Lake Wakatipu, the rivers that feed it, and the majestic ranges from which it was carved. This Glenorchy lodge truly captures the essence of luxury lodge accommodation in New Zealand, offering unparalleled vistas and comfort.

The separate guest wing consists of four bedrooms, of which one is a larger “apartment” with a separate bunkroom and ensuite with a bath, making it an ideal space for a couple with two children.

The other three guest rooms contain ensuites and each has a king-size double bed, that can be split into singles.

The Library is a cozy and peaceful retreat, settle in in front of the fire and enjoy a good book from the eclectic collection, use the desk space to catch up on those emails, or just relax, Netflix, and chill.

Adjacent to the house is the bunk room that can sleep up to 12 additional guests. It’s an ideal space for children or to house the night’s revelers. Alternatively, this space could be used for team briefings prior to the day’s adventures in Glenorchy or a group gathering.

The views from Whenua Lodge (feh noo ah) are prolific, accentuated, and framed in different ways with clever design and expanses of glass. Views change dramatically with both the seasons and time of day.

The luxury lodge in Glenorchy features a Spa Pool that offers both privacy and a social setting. Set back discreetly from the main lodge's view, it can accommodate eight guests for a more communal experience, and of course, it also provides a stunning view. For budding chefs, the wood oven in this Glenorchy lodge is perfect for grilling, rotisserie, or even doubling as a pizza oven. This exceptional feature adds to the appeal of this property, making it a prime example of South Island luxury accommodation in New Zealand.
