Kaikoura

Hapuku Lodge + Tree Houses

Hapuku Lodge + Tree Houses was built to give our guests a great night’s sleep in one the most beautiful places in the world.

Located 12kms north of the world renowned eco-marine town of Kaikoura, on NZ’s South Island, Hapuku Lodge shares the land with a deer stud and olive grove, nestled between the Kaikoura Seaward Mountain Range and famed Mangamaunu Bay.

A contemporary country lodge, Hapuku Lodge & Tree Houses is composed of four luxury lodge suites, the Olive House suite and five luxury Tree Houses built in the canopy of a native Manuka grove.

Nestled between the Kaikōura Seaward Mountain Ranges and the Pacific Ocean, Hapuku Lodge + Treehouses is a contemporary country lodge just a few km’s north of the eco-marine town, Kaikōura.

“If you could but be a bird you could more fully appreciate the beauty that is Kaikōura.” That was the inspiration of the Kiwi-American Wilson family, who had the vision to develop a spectacular treehouse experience. The seductive crops of Kanuka suggested the solution: station people in the tree-tops and they would feel closer to the mountains and ocean, while experiencing a contemporary version of a child’s treehouse.
