Hotel Description
2003/4 Tourism award-winning Kawaha Point Lodge is a beautifully appointed lodge offering luxury accommodation, right on the edge of Lake Rotorua. Originally built as a luxurious lake-edge villa for several of Auckland's premier families, today it offers the discerning visitor the opportunity to experience the comforts and hospitality of hosted luxury lodge accommodation, whilst enjoying an exclusive and intimate environment. Hosts Margaret and Tony Seavill, both New Zealanders, spent years searching for their ultimate location before finding the lodge sited amidst rose gardens and lawns with its magnificent views over lake Rotorua. The love and attention to detail they have lavished on Kawaha Point Lodge is evident in every aspect, from the use of luxurious rich cream tones, carefully chosen furnishings and artwork in the rooms creating an air of calm and serenity, to the menus especially created by resident Michelin-trained chef, Silvio Sakrzewski. Kawaha Point Lodge won the New Zealand Tourism Award for Outstanding Hosted Accommodation in 2003/4, was awarded the 2005 New Zealand Beef and Lamb Hallmark of Excellence, is a member of Select Hotels & Resorts International, is a member of the New Zealand Lodge Association, and is 5 star Qualmark rated.

Luxury Hotel Accommodation
Kawaha Point Lodge's luxury lodge accommodation comprises 8 beautifully appointed super king/twin guest suites with stunning views over the lake or gardens. Each suite, named after one of the lakes in the area, has its own balcony to enable guests to enjoy their panoramic view in private. All of the rooms are elegantly decorated in calming, neutral tones of rich creams and taupes, and furnished with hand-picked pieces of antique furniture and notable New Zealand artwork. This colour theme runs throughout the lodge, and in order to maximise their magical views across the lake, the drawing room, dining room and library are on the first floor and open to a broad, shaded verandah - perfect for a leisurely breakfast or pre-dinner drinks. Each guest suite is air-conditioned and offers a flat screen television, guest telephone, broadband internet, selection of teas & fresh coffee, homemade cookies and fresh fruit. The library also offers a large selection of reading material and a DVD player, DVDs and CDs are available on request. Dining is also a memorable experience with guests invited to eat al fresco in the lakeside gardens, in the conservatory, at the chandelier-lit Lodge table, or in one of the other private areas in the lodge. A secret ‘grotto' that can only be reached via the wisteria-draped arches and stepped terrace, is an ‘alternative' dining room for a celebratory occasion or wedding party.
