Blanket Bay

Discover a world where turquoise waters meet ancient forests.  Where legendary giants form snow-peaked mountains and where native Paradise ducks find love as deep as the lake they nest beside.  This is New Zealand’s Blanket Bay – one of the world’s best luxury lodges – located on the shores of Lake Wakatipu.  Blanket Bay is a scenic 40 minute drive from Queenstown and on the edge of the idyllic valley known as Paradise.  Nestled within a majestic alpine setting, you’ll encounter an unrivalled luxury experience combining five-star facilities with world-class hospitality delivered in a distinctly warm New Zealand way.

Native and exotic timbers, along with local schist stone, create a sense of tranquillity throughout the Lodge with vistas of the lake and mountains from every room.  Choose from the intimate and relaxed rooms in our Main Lodge, or the more generous Lodge Suites.  Alternatively, enjoy extra privacy in our Chalets.  Our Villa offers unparalleled opulence and is a superb option for families or larger groups.  Or, for a completely private ‘home away from home’ retreat, you could reserve the Owner’s Residence.
