Nestled in native bush on a ridge top Rimu Lodge gazes out across the Hokitika River, across farmland to the mountains beyond. You will be immediately struck by the absolute silence and the sheer majesty of the surroundings. A land that time has forgotten where you can truly relax and take in the splendour of native New Zealand bush, snow clad mountains and the Hokitika River running through fertile farmlands. Rimu Lodge is this place.
Property Facilities
I travelled the South Island scouring the towns for the most tranquil location with heavenly views. The moment I saw Rimu lodge I knew I had found my piece of paradise. An unspoiled environment with magnificent views. Rimu lodge is the only Qualmark 5 star bed & breakfast on the West Coast. I look forward to sharing this very special place with you.
General Room Facilities
Four individually designed ensuite guest rooms take maximum advantage of the wonderful river and mountain views. A large outside deck entices the guests to relax and enjoy the sun and native birdsong in the bush surrounding the lodge.
Free wi-fi is available in all rooms and a guest computer in reception so you can check your emails. The perfect retreat.
