Highlights

The Lakeside Retreat — A private hideaway in the World Heritage-listed Mt Cook National Park

Total seclusion is yours at the serene Mt Cook Lakeside Retreat, High Country Estate & Luxury Villa Collection — within a three and a half-hour drive of Christchurch and Queenstown. With just three villas onsite — overseen personally by live-in hosts Kaye and Luke — this boutique escape was made for intimacy, with no more than 12 guests at any one time.

Choose to arrive in style with four helipads onsite for direct flights to this secluded oasis (additional costs apply), where the views from the ground are just as mesmerising as they are from above. By day, the vistas are awe-inspiring with views of Lake Pukaki to the Southern Alps and Aoraki Mount Cook, while, by nightfall, the Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve takes centre stage.

Marvel at the nightly light show from the onsite Pukaki Wine Cellar Observatory, unique to this Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence award-winning retreat, where you can enjoy a dram of whiskey from the curated collection as you’re taken on a journey through the stars (additional costs apply).

Your Handpicked Inclusions — Secluded villa with outdoor hot tub, daily breakfast provisions, nightly three-course dinner and complimentary onsite facilities

Step into the Moraine Luxury Villa, with access to one bedroom for two, and be swept up in spacious European farmhouse charm with an open fireplace, a bathtub ensuite and a private outdoor spa under the stars. The kitchen in your private villa comes stocked with gourmet breakfast provisions, including eggs, bacon, muesli, tea, coffee and homemade jam, so you can wake up at your own pace.

Every evening, the in-house chef transforms the freshly picked herbs and vegetables from Kaye’s gardens into a wholesome and nutritious three-course dining experience that will be delivered to your villa or served at the main lodge.

Throughout your stay, enjoy complimentary access to onsite facilities: take time to enjoy a game of tennis or croquet on the lawn and glide through this World Heritage-listed area with complimentary mountain bikes, perfect for following the magnificent Alps to Ocean Cycle Trail or discovering Tasman Glacier lookouts — within a 30-minute walk.

Ultimate Mt Cook Villa Upgrade Bonus: Enjoy welcome chocolates, a bottle of sparkling wine and a 45-minute massage per person, per stay.
