Kokonga Lodge

Kokonga Lodge is our all inclusive secluded luxury lodge location in beautiful Maniatoto.

AMBIENCE

This package is about taking a few days to relax in style with your favourite people, and in the middle you celebrate your relationship.

Two nights accommodation for up to 16 people is included. All rooms double or twin. And all rooms except two rooms in the cottage have their own ensuite.

As everything will be set up and organised by us, you get to just enjoy precious relaxed time in the company of those most important to you.

You can choose to swim in the onsite pool, or get bikes delivered to the lodge for a ride on the Otago Central Rail Trail that runs past the back gate, or take a trip to Naseby and try curling … right up until the point it’s time to get dressed and say I do on Kokonga Lodge’s lawn.
