About Whare Kea Lodge & Chalet - Wanaka

Whare Kea Lodge and Chalet is a luxury lodge on the shores of Lake Wānaka at 494 Wānaka-Mt Aspiring Road, ten minutes by car from the town centre, set against the Southern Alps. It hosts intimate weddings of up to 25 guests, with up to 12 staying on the premises.

Indoor and outdoor locations suit the ceremony, the reception or wedding photography. The front lawn is a registered helipad, so couples can be flown into the mountains for photographs against snow-capped peaks and glaciers.

The lodge also hosts corporate retreats and has a mountain chalet. Rated 5.0 from 16 Google reviews, all of them five stars.

Bookings are made directly with the lodge. Fraudulent third-party listings exist, so book directly with the lodge or a trusted travel agent.
