Huka Lodge

Refined riverside sanctuary.

Set on 17 acres by the Waikato River near Lake Taupo, Huka Lodge pairs heritage charm with contemporary comfort. Formerly a 1920s fishing retreat, the property offers riverside suites and private cottages surrounded by lush, landscaped grounds.

Insider Tip

Request dinner in the book-lined Library for a memorable meal in one of the lodge’s most intimate settings.

Where You’re Staying

Lodge Suites feature king beds, deep soaking tubs, and private decks opening to the river. The Alan Pye and Alex van Heeren Cottages offer multi-bedroom layouts, fireplaces, and exclusive outdoor spaces for gatherings.

Where to Dine

Start your morning on the terrace or in the Dining Room with à la carte breakfast. Lunch is casual and flexible, while dinner showcases seasonal four-course menus. Reserve one of the lodge’s unique settings—from the Wine Cellar to the River Deck—for a private meal.

Where to Relax

Enjoy massages and facials in the wellness area, then relax in the sauna, hot pool, or ice shower. A gym is also available. For quiet reflection, the River Room offers fireside seating and panoramic river views.

What to Do

Enjoy on-site activities like tennis, croquet, and pétanque. Cast a line into the river for catch-and-release fishing, or explore the grounds with complimentary bikes. Nearby, discover Lake Taupo's outdoor adventures and geothermal attractions.
