Luxury in a raw and untouched environment
New Zealand is the ideal destination for wild, beautiful and striking landscapes. Few weeks ago, a brand new resort has opened its door with a low profile and unique architectural design…
Surrounded by over 6,000 acres of mountains and valleys and nestled between three conservation parks, The Lindis is located on a moraine wall formed but the retreating glacier and overlooks the Ahuriri river and its Valley in North Otago on New Zealand’s South Island.
It is undoubtedly the country’s newest luxury lodge bringing contemporary architecture and design to the untouched environment including snow-capped mountains, wetlands, tussock grasslands and beech forests.
The main building houses five eclectically designed suites – each named after a neighbouring station – and is characterised by top-shelf finishes and modern and sculptural detail. Its sweeping, wooden roof ensures the solitary man-made structure appears an organic, seamless addition to the natural landscape, while a huge expanse of glass along the front of the building provides guests with a looking glass to the spectacular panoramic views of the river and mountains beyond.
Outside the main building, guests can expect merino sheep and Angus bulls roaming freely, and endless opportunities to explore the valley on foot, bike or horse, with mountain climbing, mountain biking and horseback riding also on offer at the lodge. Guests can also venture their chance at one of the world’s top 10 fly fishing spots nestled closely to the building.
Next year, a further three suites will open as part of an extension of the lodge, as well as individual glass pods specially designed for star-gazing.
Rates for a Lodge Suite at The Lindis start at NZD $2,000 per night.
