Overview

Immerse yourself in the unparalleled beauty of New Zealand’s most pristine landscapes at Lodge Lorien, the ultimate luxury retreat in nature. Overlooking the sparkling waters of Lake Wakatipu and framed by a dramatic mountain backdrop, this gated sanctuary offers complete privacy and breathtaking views in every direction. Just 45 minutes by car from Queenstown Airport or a swift 15-minute helicopter flight directly to the on-site helipad, your arrival at Lodge Lorien marks the beginning of a truly serene escape. Originally conceived as a private holiday home, the owners soon realised this extraordinary property was too special not to share. Spanning 1,100 square metres across two levels, the lodge blends sophisticated design with natural textures like locally sourced schist and timber beams. Open fireplaces warm the central living and dining rooms, while the entertainer’s kitchen, complete with a timber breakfast bar, sets the tone for relaxed, stylish living. The home also offers a dedicated workspace, a fully equipped gym, a games room, a cinema, a wine room, and a steam room. Outside, multiple entertaining areas invite you to enjoy long summer evenings, with a central courtyard, a spacious terrace with BBQ, and a hot tub overlooking the mountains and lake.

When it’s time to unwind, four beautifully appointed guest suites each offer private ensuites and walk-in wardrobes, while the master suite includes a private den with a gas fireplace and a cosy sitting area — your own retreat within a retreat. The surrounding Southern Lakes region is nothing short of spectacular. Known for its untouched beauty and thrilling outdoor pursuits, the area offers everything from world-class hiking, kayaking, and heli-skiing to horse riding, yoga, spa experiences and wine tasting. Whether you’re seeking peace and stillness or high-adrenaline adventure, Lodge Lorien offers the rarest kind of luxury — complete immersion in one of the most awe-inspiring landscapes in New Zealand.
