I just love getting away, whatever the reason - I LOVE staying somewhere NOT home. It's always exciting - even if it's the opposite of what you were expecting. I'm that guest that arrives and runs around checking all the rooms, shouting to whoever I'm bunking with, "Ooo, there's a bidet! Eeee, Egyptian Cotton! Whoohoo, there's a spa pool!!!"
​
Finding accommodation in the South Island is easy - there's plenty of options - but it really does pay to have an insiders knowledge. Well, that's why we're here!
​
The South Island has some of the most incredible lodges, hotels, bed & breakfasts, and self-contained accommodation in the world. From glamping teepees to wilderness cabins, to tiny caravans in the forest, to luxuriously lakefront lodges - we can offer you the right fit for your needs.

OLIVERS CENTRAL OTAGO
One of our favourites, Olivers in Clyde in the heart of Central Otago has been an institution of historical beauty for as long as I can remember. The latest owners have renovated it lovingly over the years, adding a deli and cafe, a fine dining restaurant and fantastic brewery and bar, and new accommodation in the stables and historic outbuildings that are simply HEAVEN! This is the place to stay if you love history, stone, lavish and opulence, and good old-fashioned charm.

THE WOOLSHED ON RACECOURSE

We can also recommend accommodation in the area which has been developed for the Central Otago Rail Trail, just voted NZ's top cycling track. A nonstop view of the surrounding vistas including the famous Hawkdun Range, all set on one of Central Otago's most exclusive private properties.
