Wellness with Wow Factor

We’ve Been Featured Among NZ’s Most Luxurious Spa Retreats

Mt Cook Lakeside Retreat has been featured as one of New Zealand’s most luxurious spa retreats.

The New Zealand Herald travel feature says:

“With epic views out to Aotearoa’s iconic peak Aoraki, a stay at Mt Cook Lakeside Retreat is an indulgent self-care package to rest and be revived. The retreat’s wellness philosophy is to ‘celebrate the power of optimism, make time for reflection and cultivate an active, engaged perspective on life.’

 

Treatments are based on holistic therapies with a strong spiritual connection and to the natural environment. Winter wellness retreats include massage, yoga, artesian water spa pools and forest bathing while staying in a luxury villa with an incredible backdrop of New Zealand’s highest mountain.”

 

A wonderful mind and soul retreat with the best view NZ possibly can offer. Best view of all places we stayed in NZ this trip and best meal cooked by Chef Tom. The hosts, Luke and Kaye, are very lovely and attentive to every detail. We did a private stargazing tour and it was marvelous! Luke gave us a tour of the universe. There are lots of activities you can choose from, including tennis, spa, hot tub, sauna, croquet, etc. Best experience of all traveling time.
