Today, a continuous list of top international awards bears testament to a reputation richly deserved and a clientele who still seek the same legendary experiences offered by Huka Lodge. A place where every last detail for guest comfort has been considered, where the service is both solicitous and seamless and where gourmet cuisine is served at the most romantic and sublime private dining venues imaginable.
