Seaside cabin, off the grid
Te Pounamu is our off-the-grid whānau cabin. All the incoming water is filtered, then UV filtered, and heated by gas for lovely warm outdoor showers or indoor baths.
Extra electricity comes from our super quiet, modern generator, which hums away in the paddock about 40 m from the cabin. It is a simple pull start, and it is filled with fuel to power your lights and appliances.
Technically there are two double beds, but we see the top bunk as a king single: big enough for a couple of kids.
The bi-folding windows at the dining table open up to Te Tai-o-Marokura i Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa (the Pacific Ocean), and they really are spectacular. The back door opens onto a deck that wraps around the cabin, where you can lie in the sun and gaze up at Manakau on the Seaward Kaikōura Range.
Enjoy the views, the fresh air and the break from modern technology. Grab a book, or a pad and pen, and let your creative juices run wild.
Seaside cabin
A cute little cabin tucked in beside the spa pool, with a viewing platform on the roof looking to the mountains and the ocean. Warm and quaint, with mountain views from your bed and from the outdoor bath and shower.
Bush cabin Coming soon
A cosy, fire-lit cabin with a roof viewing deck, in the middle of native bush on top of a hill, with views to Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa and not another soul around. What more could you ask for?
