Luxury Holidays At Mahu Whenua

Nestled amid 136,000 acres of lovingly restored private land, Mahu Whenua is a luxury lodge with a story to tell.

Learn about the conservation efforts in the area - there might even be a chance to get hands on helping to replant areas with native trees. Sport and leisure activities abound as well - there's ski fields nearby, the chance to try Via Ferrata rock climbing, calm lake waters perfect for paddle boarding, and, back at the lodge, a terrace with amazing views is an idyllic place to practise yoga or pilates.

Lakes & Mountains

From the moment you step through the generous wooden doors, a relaxed ambience envelops you, a sense of peace and serenity intensified by the jaw dropping views from the front lawn which stretch out over Lake Wanaka and the surrounding mountains. This eco sanctuary boasts some of the most dramatic natural alpine scenery you’ll ever see. The homestead itself is an attraction in its own right too – luxurious, homely, secluded, charming, welcoming and paired with the most heart-warming hospitality.
