Our Apartment is part of the Arawata Collection - a private hillside property made up of four fully self-contained accommodations, each with its own entrance, outdoor
space, and sense of seclusion:

Arawata Alpine View Apartment (This Listing): Brand-new and spacious, with 2 bedrooms and 2 compact ensuites plus a private entrance. Located just below The Arawata
Retreat on the western side with sweeping lake and mountain views.

Arawata Bush View (Apartment 2): Also newly built, this cosy 2-bedroom, 2-ensuite apartment with its own entry sits below The Arawata Retreat on the eastern side, offering tranquil bush views and glimpses of the mountains.

The Arawata Chalet: A romantic, standalone studio, now a brand new beautifully converted retreat with log fire, lake views, and total privacy.

The Arawata Retreat: A fully renovated 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home perched above it all - ideal for families or groups, with sweeping lake and mountain vistas.

While each unit is thoughtfully positioned for privacy, you may occasionally see other guests in shared outdoor areas such as the garden path or driveway.

Please note: Access to Arawata apartment 2 involves walking past the entrance to the Arawata apartment 1 - rest assured, both spaces are fully self-contained with separate entries and no shared interior areas.

Whether you’re after a quiet retreat or booking multiple units for a larger group, the Arawata Collection offers the perfect blend of connection and calm.

The property borders a quiet public park, where you may occasionally see local dog walkers.
