Christmas at Wanaka’s Minaret Station Alpine Lodge

‘Tis the Season for Ultimate Relaxation, Gourmet Cuisine, and Endless Adventures.

As we approach the holiday season, our team at Minaret Station prepare the Alpine Lodge for the fast-approaching festivities. Lights, ornaments and our guest favourite - a fresh pine tree fills the room through sight and smell.

Christmas in a luxury lodge, why not? 

When you think of Christmas, many think of spending it at home or visiting relatives for the holiday. Enjoying your Christmas in a secluded lodge may seem surprising and unorthodox, but it is an experience of grand relaxation and well-being for you and those closest.   

However, enjoying the holidays at Minaret Station Alpine Lodge is comparable to having personal Christmas elves with one objective: taking care of you as you bask in the memorable occasion. Revel in your private scenic helicopter flight to the lodge where you will enjoy your luxurious chalet complemented by a hot tub on the patio, perfect for watching the neighbouring wildlife in their natural environs. Fill your holiday with as much or as little adventure as desired, with endless options for experiences in the mountains before retiring for the evening. Your chef will have created a gourmet dinner banquet, coupled with an assortment of fine wines from around New Zealand, that will be sure to coax you into the traditional post-Christmas dinner haze.  

Escape the hustle and bustle next Christmas, and venture into the mountains for a true holiday getaway.  


From the team at Minaret Station, we wish you all a happy and healthy holiday season and look forward to welcoming you to our alpine home-away-from-home in 2023.
