Blanket Bay Glenorchy Queestown

Paradise will never be closer. This Lodge is a magical and rare haven of peace and solitude combining unspoiled beauty, outdoor adventure and luxury accommodation.

Nestled amidst rugged snow capped peaks of the Southern Alps on the shores of Lake Wakatipu is New Zealand’s finest Lodge – Blanket Bay. Here we celebrate the art of pure relaxation.

This magnificent Lodge provides facilities and accommodation that eclipses the best New Zealand has to offer. Accommodation at Blanket Bay is provided in five intimate Lodge Rooms, three generous Lodge Suites in the Main Lodge, and four superb Chalet Suites all filled with sumptuous furnishings and elegant rugs. Natural materials are showcased throughout, echoing the Lodge's integration and interaction with the environment. All rooms within the Lodge are placed to take full advantage of the magnificent lake and mountain vistas.

Dining at Blanket bay is a special occasion every night . Dinner is served on individual tables in the elegant Lake View Dining Room with its beamed ceiling and stone fireplace. For a more intimate affair, reserve our Wine Cave – a perfect venue for private dining for up to six people. On warmer evenings, under a clear southern sky, The Terrace is a magnificent setting with the fire behind and the mountain and lake vistas unfolding around you.
