"“Absolutely impeccable service from the moment you arrive and ring the bell at the gate until the moment you leave. The level of hospitality provided by Callum and the Otahuna team is exceptional and increasingly rare to find these days. Every detail is thoughtfully considered, creating an experience that is truly worth every cent. Highly recommended to stay and experience a bygone era."

"Faultless dining experience with the finest team and hosts I've ever encountered."

"Everything about Otahuna Lodge is first class - six stars. The location of the property, the entrance which just sets the scene for what is going to be unbelievable experience. The greeting by the owner and staff is professional and welcoming - every detail is taken care of from taking luggage to the room, parking the car and being offered refreshments. A tour of the lodge just excites the senses - beautifully restored and wonderfully relaxing. Everything is personalized right from when you book through to arriving at the lodge. We had the pleasure of staying in the Rhodes Suite and couldn’t have been more impressed - pure luxury in every detail. I’ll run out of superlatives in describing the ambience, the food, the wine, the lodge and the wonderful owners and staff that bring it altogether. We will return for another visit and highly recommend Otahuna Lodge"

"A Truly Exceptional Stay at Otahuna Lodge Otahuna Lodge was, without a doubt, one of the most spectacular experiences we’ve had. After a long day’s drive from Queenstown to Christchurch, we were warmly greeted by the owner and his incredibly kind and thoughtful staff, setting the tone for our stay. As we checked into our room, it felt like stepping into a luxurious summer cottage fit for royalty. The attention to detail in both the design and guest experience was extraordinary. Every corner of the lodge radiates warmth and sophistication, with each of the seven rooms elegantly decorated in fine taste and of the highest quality. One standout feature of our stay was the exceptional laundry service, a welcome treat after a road trip. The meals—both breakfast and dinner—were nothing short of extraordinary and included in our package. Each course was paired with wines from their exclusive wine room, which we had the pleasure of touring privately. The meals featured fresh vegetables picked daily from the garden, truly enhancing the dining experience with locally sourced, seasonal flavors. We were also treated ourselves to private massages in the serene garden area, adding a touch of relaxation to our stay. Otahuna Lodge is a hidden gem that offers unparalleled hospitality, and we look forward to returning in the future."
