About this property

Rakau – National Park Holiday Home

Situated on beautifully manicured grounds, Rakau is a comfortable base in National Park village!

Split over two levels, this charming Lockwood-style holiday home provides four bedrooms and sleeps up to seven guests. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious master bedroom equipped with your own private ensuite and a balcony that overlooks the unique landscape of the Central Plateau. While the home is well-complimented with a full-size family bathroom, full laundry facilities and a drying room for added convenience during your stay.

Downstairs, the open-plan living area is ideal for relaxing and reflecting on a day of adventure. With a Smart TV, WiFi and a woodburning fireplace, curl up on the couch in comfort.  A fresh, functional kitchen and a dining table make this a great spot to prepare and enjoy a meal.

Step through the ranch slider and onto the decking. Fire up the BBQ and take in the alpine scenery and lush grounds; there’s plenty of grass for the kids to run around on. Off-street parking and an internal access garage mean there’s more than enough room for the cars, while you can prepare for the slopes while a complimentary ski-turning bench.

This Central Plateau location means you’re a 13-minute drive to Whakapapa Village with the ski fields just up the road, while the start of the Tongariro Alpine Crossing is just a 20-minute drive away.

For a peaceful retreat amongst a hub of adventure – visit Rakau!
