Lake Wanaka celebrates four distinct seasons, with a variety of activities, attractions and unique wilderness areas. Centrally located in the Southern Lakes district travelers are well placed to access the Mount Aspiring , Fiordland, Mount Cook and Westland National Parks and the vast rural landscape that lies between. Whare Kea Lodge provides a relaxing base to absorb the ambience of this lake-side resort, and explore the surrounding region.

All rooms include; a large ensuite bathroom with double ended bath and separate double shower, walk in dressing room/wardrobe, coded personal security safe, Bose stereo sound system, cordless phone, broad-band wireless internet access, writing desk and an arm chair and footrest. All rooms have direct access to the sundeck with an outdoor table setting.
Whare Kea's style of cuisine is not traditional French rather modern European with an emphasis on fresh New Zealand produce complimented by fine New Zealand and Australian wines and French champagne. The chef will be pleased to cater for any particular dietary requirements.
