Overview

Panoramic lake and mountain views greet you at The Boulders Retreat, a stunning private villa nestled in the hills overlooking Lake Dunstan. This luxury property, perched 100m above the lake, sits seamlessly amongst the rugged boulders of Central Otago in a prime location. Thoughtfully designed to offer a serene, comfortable, and luxurious experience with all the modern conveniences, it boasts breathtaking, ever-changing views of the lake and the surrounding mountains throughout. The luxurious interiors of this beautiful villa are a stark contrast to the rugged landscapes outside. Brightly-coloured wallpaper and stylish furnishings fill the space, offering a vibrant retreat for guests to enjoy. The open plan living area offers a fully equipped kitchen kitted out with everything you need to cook a delicious family feast, which you can enjoy at the dining table looking out to the lake. Later, why not fill up the outdoor bathtub and enjoy a soak under the stars with a glass of local Pinot Noir from one of the region’s many fantastic vineyards.

The Central Otago region is famous for its wine, so if you’re looking to do some wine tasting, you’ll be spoilt for choice! One of our top picks is located just next door – Cloudy Bay – while further afield you can peruse the many delicious options Bannockburn & Gibbston has to offer. If you’re looking to stretch your legs, there are walking tracks on the property itself to explore, as well as hiking and biking opportunities close by in nearby Bendigo. Biking The Dunstan Trail is also a great way to spend a day in the area and see some beautiful scenery. The luxury property is a passive house, designed to remain a constant, comfortable temperature year-round, whatever the weather outside. It has three bedrooms, sleeping a maximum of 6 guests. The master bedroom is on one side of the house, with a king bed and its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. The second bedroom is a queen room, which shares the main bathroom with the bunkroom. The minimum stay requirement at The Boulders is 2 nights.
