The Lodge
Poronui is an iconic, high-country New Zealand estate. Classified as one of the world's finest sporting lodges, The Lodge, perched above the ‘home pool’ on the Taharua River, exudes a warm welcome.
There are eight individually appointed guest cabins each with ensuite bathroom and private deck. The Lodge is where you have the opportunity to share your experiences with fellow adventurers, often the catalyst for long term friendships. The kitchen is renowned for its gourmet food, expertly prepared by our team of chefs who pride themselves on sourcing locally and in season.
Whether its afternoon tea by the crackling log fire, après activity drinks and finger food around the bar, or canapés and pre-dinner cocktails on the sunny deck, the atmosphere is relaxed and informal.
Your lodge should meet you halfway.
After a day in the backcountry, the lodge is where the experience matches the journey it took to get here.
Each room is thoughtfully designed for the discerning traveler—generous, beautifully appointed, and warmed by the quiet details of genuine Kiwi hospitality.
Surrounded by untouched woodland and complete seclusion, every comfort has been considered, leaving the mind entirely free for tomorrow’s hunt.
For those who have crossed the globe for this experience, it is a place to arrive, properly, at the end of each day.
