TO DO

Whether it is a sunny or rainy day, there are multiple ways to enjoy your stay here. Take a canoe tour down the lake, stroll on a bike through the town, or relax in the game room at the resort.

Feeling adventurous? Go horse riding in the sheep fields, try heli-skiing at one of the local mountains, or take a helicopter trip overlooking Milford Sound.

TO EAT

The resort is not short of intricate dishes that are served for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Several versions of eggs, citrusy salads, lamb mains, and dozens of other delicacy meals are all available to you on a daily basis.

Based on the courses you select, you will be offered wines that complement those dishes. The atmosphere of a low-lit dining room with a scorching fireplace, a secluded wine cave with stonewalls, or an outdoor terrace with the warm fire make your dining experience just that much more refined.
