Rainforest Retreat

Experience life among the rainforest-clad foothills of New Zealand’s Southern Alps with a serene stay at Rainforest Retreat, nestled in the alpine town of Franz Josef on the South Island. From breathtaking glaciers and peaceful lagoons to majestic mountains and pristine lakes, this secluded sanctuary is surrounded by unparalleled nature within a UNESCO World Heritage-listed area. A stay in one of Rainforest Retreat’s self-contained havens is the perfect way to enjoy this slice of paradise: embrace nature as you’re suspended above the lush rainforest canopy, inhale fresh alpine air from your hut’s expansive deck area and quiet your mind in the rainforest shower ensuite.
