Situated just 12 kilometres north of the eco-marine town of Kaikoura, the award-winning Hapuku Lodge & Tree Houses offers a truly unique accommodation experience. This contemporary country lodge features five luxurious tree houses elevated 30 feet in the canopy of native Kanuka trees, along with four elegant lodge suites and the charming Olive House villa.
Expansive windows in each room provide stunning views of Kaikoura’s majestic mountains and the Pacific Ocean's surf-kissed coastline. The tree houses, clad in native wood and copper shingles, blend harmoniously into the natural landscape, ensuring a serene and immersive experience.
At the heart of Hapuku Lodge & Tree Houses is a deep passion for exceptional food and wine. The culinary experience here is truly special, with a ‘Farm to Table, Ocean to Plate’ philosophy. Ingredients are sourced from the lodge’s own herb and vegetable gardens, free-range chickens, and olive grove, as well as from local market gardens, ensuring every meal is fresh, local, and full of flavour.
