The accommodation that we use along the Queen Charlotte Track has been specially chosen to provide you, the guest with the maximum level of comfort available. The first two nights differ from other operators and are smaller, more comfortable lodges.
The accommodation on the Queen Charlotte Track for the guided walk as well as the independent package is:
Day One. Endeavour Inlet. No Road Inn A newly built lodge nestled beneath Mt Furneaux beside Furneaux wharf. The lodge has been designed and built by the owners Gary and Barbara Aston. Every attention to detail has been thought of in this premium property from large, spacious rooms with claw foot baths through to private balconies with sea views. If you like seafood then your going to love this place!
Day Two. Endeavour Inlet Mahana Homestead A recently renovated lodge, Mahana Homestead is a hidden jewel in this beautiful area. Ann and John Martin have lovingly created something quite wonderful here. A purpose built lodge surrounded by extensive native gardens with all rooms having private en suites and balconies with either bush or sea views where once you arrive you won't want to leave. A speciality of Mahana is using organically grown vegetables in all their meals. Take a kayak out to explore the area further once you have settled in.
Day Three. Portage Bay. Portage Resort An iconic accommodation resort that has won many awards over the years, Portage is a welcome haven after an invigorating days walk. The restaurant here is one of the best in Marlborough and has an extensive wine list of local and imported wines. Sit back on the balcony and enjoy the sunset overlooking Kenepuru Sound.
