Rimu Lodge

Rimu Lodge is a boutique luxury lodge near Hokitika on New Zealand’s South Island West Coast, and a peaceful adults-only retreat set in native bush with breathtaking views over the Hokitika River and the Southern Alps beyond.

Opened in 2004, the architecturally designed property features just four individually styled, elegantly furnished suites—each with ensuite bathrooms, premium amenities and stunning outlooks—making it ideal for romantic getaways, special occasions or a restful stop on a South Island adventure. Guests enjoy a beautiful a la carte or continental breakfast on the deck or in the Great Room, a welcoming communal space with mountain scenery, and the lodge’s tranquil environment just a short 10-minute drive from Hokitika’s cafés, galleries and attractions. With its emphasis on relaxed luxury, attentive service and connection to the dramatic West Coast landscape, Rimu Lodge combines comfort and natural beauty for an unforgettable stay.
