TE ARAI LODGE

Inspired. Sustainable. Luxury.

The Lodge itself is a work of art. The warmth of the family owners is palpable. I spent three nights just reading and relaxing, enjoying the most fabulous fresh food, a lot of it freshly picked from the veggie garden!

What a great find! Influence of German perfection, French flair, English politeness, Italian romantic, Swiss precision wrapped up in Kiwi hospitality.
— James & Isabella
The hospitality and food was second to none, we have travelled all over the world and stayed in some fantastic hotels, however the service and quality of the experience we had at Te Arai was another level.
