Overview
Solitaire Lodge is situated on an exclusive, privately owned peninsula on the shores of Lake Tarawera, Rotorua, New Zealand. A magical experience combining luxury and indulgence that has been enjoyed by many. For some the pleasure comes from the impeccable service and attention to detail in everything we do. For others it's the glorious seclusion and the opportunity to leave the world behind and lose oneself in the pristine unspoiled beauty.
Our guests share the dining table, where we can accommodate up to 20 guests. Dress for dinner is smart casual. If preferred, dinner and/or breakfast can also be served privately in your suite or if weather permitting on the terrace.
The ten suite Five-Star Luxury Lodge has gained an international reputation for excellent service and attention to detail, complemented by top New Zealand food and wine in one of the world's most outstanding locations, near Rotorua in the North Island. It was one of New Zealand's first luxury lodges, hosting many high-profile guests over the past 30 years.
Applauded for its high level of service and attention to detail, it ranks as one of the worlds most desirable destinations and provides an enticing base for all who wish to explore this area of great natural beauty.
