Welcome!

Anakiwa Lodge We are Marlborough's first and only five star boutique budget accommodation lodge, only 30 min's scenic drive from Picton ferry.

Opened in 2007, we guarantee our modern family run lodge will be a relaxing experience, one of the best as you travel through New Zealand.

Our secluded peaceful environment is only 70m from the waterfront. We are pleasantly isolated from the camper traffic and student noise at Outward Bound and the wharf.

Yet the popular Queen Charlotte Track is just 2 min's walk away - what's stopping you?

Want to walk or bike the Queen Charlotte track? Our track information page will get you underway.

For transport to or from Anakiwa? See our location page

Locally we have access to some excellent bush walks, mountain biking, boat cruises, swimming, watersking and kayaking with a wide range of marine life and native birds. End the day with a glass of wine from some of our premium Marlborough vineyards.

Group Bookings - Exclusive Use

If you are looking at an extended family group booking, consider our exclusive use option below for the lodge accommodation wing. This is a popular option for a group having a few days or week or two in the sounds, offering fully serviced accommodation without the linen and cleanup of a typical holiday home.

We regularly rent out the entire accommodation wing at the lodge for smaller family groups, special occasions, tour groups and corporate team building at around $ 800 per night.. We are always happy to provide a quick quote on any requirement.

 

Anakiwa Lodge is privately owned, family run accommodation with a relaxed atmosphere - we look forward to your stay with us.

Your hosts Debby & Darrell, Niall & "Rocky" will welcome you at reception
