Hananui PurePod is a glistening glass eco-sanctuary for adults-only and privately secluded on New Zealand’s mesmerising Rakiura Stewart Island, for the most spectacular big-sky views of nature.
  • Sleeps: 2
  • Bedroom: 1
  • Bathroom: 1
  • Minimum stay: 1 night

The ultimate in romantic getaways, Hananui PurePod is a dreamy glass eco-retreat-for-two that’s magnificently nestled amongst soothing native bush on Rakiura Stewart Island.

Not only will you be able to cast your gaze over vast, unspoilt scenes of nature, but as part of the southernmost Dark Sky Reserve, you’ll be treated to a twinkling star-studded show every night!

Arrive in the most magical way, with either a scenic 15-minute flight or a 60-minute ferry ride, then taking a mesmerising nature-walk through native bush to your PurePod.

Pour a refreshing drink and cast your enthralled gaze across Lee Bay, to the highest peak on the island… whether you decide to stay inside your glass haven, or relax on the magnificent deck.

You’ll have all the luxury self-contained facilities you could wish for, including a shower-with-a-view, and in-and-outdoor cooking options.  If you don’t want to arrive laden down with supplies, there’s even an option to pre-order a Dinner and Breakfast hamper, stuffed with tempting local produce.

Stay put and enjoy the blissful tranquillity, as you watch the local wildlife go about its day (you may spot a kiwi if you’re lucky!) or get under the skin of the island on two feet or two wheels.  Oh, and if you’d like to get to know the island’s residents, the local quiz night just happens to be world-famous!
