New Zealand’s Best Hot Tub Holiday

Travel Journalist Brook Sabin Visits Mt Cook Lakeside Retreat

Travel journalist Brook Sabin visited Mt Cook Lakeside Retreat. He toured Ashley Mackenzie Villa and called its spa tub “New Zealand’s most spectacular hot tub.”

He wrote:

“Then, you spot the pièce de résistance. At the edge of the hill, overlooking the lake and mountains is New Zealand’s most spectacular hot tub. Here, you can soak up a magnificent sunset before returning to your villa for a chef-prepared three-course meal.”

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.
