Two-night luxury glacier escapes

Te Waonui Forest Retreat

The newly completed Te Waonui Forest Retreat offers a luxurious place to unwind and relax in the rugged West Coast.  The hotel offers a stunning base for your glacier and outdoor activities in the area, where you can do as much or as little as you like to experience the natural wonder of this region.

One night does not seem to be enough to allow you to fully experience all that is on offer beyond the glacier. So for this reason we have put together a handpicked selection of two night packages incorporating some of the local attractions to complete your Franz Josef experience.

 

Complete relaxation 

Pamper yourself at the neighbouring Glacier hot pools, with two half an hour massage treatments

PLUS A FEW ADDED EXTRAS...

With these four packages to choose from, there is likely to be something to add something a little different to your Franz Josef Glacier experience. As an added treat, you will also find a bottle of sparkling wine and chocolate-dipped strawberries courtesy of the hotel awaiting your arrival and complimentary entrance to the adjacent Glacier Hot Pools to help your unwind.   Dinner on both nights is a five-course degustation menu for two and is incorporated into the packages, showcasing tasty local delicacies as is a full international breakfast buffet in the morning to help get your day off to the best start.
