Matakauri Lodge

Queenstown, Milford Sound & Southern Lakes

Framed by mountain ranges, Matakauri Lodge in Queenstown, New Zealand is the perfect alpine lakeside hideaway and the sister property of The Farm at Cape Kidnappers in Hawke's Bay and The Lodge at Kauri Cliffs in the Bay of Islands.

Strategically located by Lake Wakatipu, Matakauri Lodge has a contemporary casual structure, with sprightly interiors and toasty-textured furnishings.

Accommodation includes three lodge suites set in the main lodge and eight peripheral deluxe suites. Each one features a spacious bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and lavish bathroom, completed by a homely sitting area and an open fireplace. The private patios provide views of the Remarkables, Cecil, and Walter Peak mountain ranges.

With modern European cuisine that changes daily, the lodge’s local and seasonal dining choices are exquisite.

Matakauri Lodge is also home to a luxury spa. Action enthusiasts can partake in heli-skiing, mountain biking, and fly fishing.

Why we recommend Matakauri Lodge

Get up early at Matakauri Lodge and head to the gym for sunrise. The fitness center overlooks the hotel’s infinity pool, which in turn overlooks Queenstown's Lake Wakatipu and the snow-capped Remarkables mountains – you will never have a better view from a treadmill! During the cooler months, enjoy pre-dinner drinks in front of the outdoor fireplace on the lawn before moving into the dining room for dinner. The meals are expertly curated and use some of the finest ingredients in New Zealand.
