Hapuku Lodge & Tree Houses

Hapuku Lodge & Tree Houses is a one-of-a-kind retreat set on a deer farm just north of Kaikōura, offering luxury accommodations surrounded by ocean and mountain views. Its signature tree houses - elevated 10 meters above the ground - feature sleek timber interiors, fireplaces, soaking tubs, and glass walls that immerse guests in the native canopy. The lodge also offers lodge suites and an Olive House apartment, all designed with a focus on comfort, craftsmanship, and connection to the landscape. The on-site restaurant serves seasonal dishes sourced largely from the lodge’s gardens and local producers. With its striking architecture and deep sense of place, Hapuku offers a unique blend of coastal seclusion and high-end design.
