Welcome to Mahitahi Lodge - luxury West Coast Bed and Breakfast
John and Jacqui welcome you to their purpose built lodge offering high quality bed and breakfast accommodation in South Westland, the Gateway to the Glaciers.
Once you have arrived, there is no need travel far - all is here - and a wonderful dinner is served
The lodge is a marvelous place to ‘unwind’ and just simply relax with a five minute walk to the Mahitahi River and the isolated, uncrowded and rugged Bruce Bay beach with views to Mt Cook.
"World class fishing and hunting, bushwalking, photography, the beaches and history - it's all here and it's so peaceful as well"
Mahitahi Lodge is ideally located for the quiet enjoyment of wonderful south Westland - 30 minutes (47 kilometres) south of Fox Glacier, 50 minutes south of Franz Josef Glacier, 3 hours north of Wanaka and 50 minutes north of Haast.
