High quality Anakiwa accommodation for backpackers and budget travellers

Anakiwa Lodge

 

We are a five star boutique accommodation lodge similar to a small hotel, a 25 min scenic drive from Picton.

Opened in 2007, our family run lodge will be a top class experience, one of the best as you travel through New Zealand.

.

We have a beautiful peaceful sounds environment only 70m from the waterfront. 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.

Sounds

As your hosts, we have stayed in a variety of budget accommodation around the world. Some were great, some ....well not so much.

We show our guests that when you want budget accommodation in Picton and the "Top of the South", there is no need to rough it in a scruffy noisy backpackers - we have upped the standard!

Independent travellers, small group bookings, families, all are welcome

Our rooms:

We have a 4 bed multishare dorm room or a range of quality double private rooms, some with ensuites and large outdoor decks to relax in the sun.
