The ten luxury guest rooms - one an executive suite with separate lounge area for private entertaining - look out across Lake Te Anau. Each guest room is furnished with super king size beds and appointed private bathrooms.
Complementing the Fiordland Lodge's ten double guest rooms are two traditionally built log cabins, ideal for families, providing dinner, bed and breakfast. The warm interiors feature extensive use of recycled native New Zealand timber. Each cabin sleeps five and has a private bathroom.
Both log cabins are separate and private from the main lodge. The cabins are on an elevated site with magnificent views to the northwest, across Lake Te Anau and the mountains of Fiordland National Park. To the north and east, views are out across rural farm land, with the mountains of northern Fiordland in the distance. Each cabin is fitted with a quality queen-size bed downstairs, and on a mezzanine floor above one cabin has a twin room, and one has three single beds.
