Nestling under Mt Karioi, WAOKU LODGE offers luxury tourist accommodation and a secluded retreat for the discerning traveller. Opened in July 2008, the accommodation awaits assessment from Qualmark and aims to achieve the coveted five-star status.
Situated in 12 acres of covenanted native bush, peace and tranquility surround this unique venue. Guests will enjoy an uncrowded and unhurried base from which to enjoy the rich simplicity, relaxation and recreation of this unspoilt and undiscovered part of "old" New Zealand.
With breathtaking views across the Tasman, Waoku Lodge offers four self-contained luxury lodges named and themed after the four elements; Ahi (fire), Aotearoa (earth), Matangi (wind) and Moana (water).
