By the river
at Huka Lodge
Long regarded as one of the world's most revered and inspirational luxury accommodations, Huka Lodge is set among 17-acres of established, parklike gardens along the banks of the emerald-blue Waikato River near Lake Taupō on New Zealand's North Island. With humble beginnings more than a century ago as a fisher's camp with white canvas tents pegged along the trout-rich river, Huka Lodge has today secured its place as one of the country's oldest and most celebrated luxury lodges. In 2024 Huka Lodge closed for a carefully considered 'centenary redesign', and reopened its doors in March 2025, ready to welcome a next generation of global luxury traveller.
