Glamping is becoming increasingly popular, with outdoor bathtubs and breathtaking views, cosy fires and expansive decks. The safe countryside and stunning landscapes of New Zealand make it the ideal remote escape. Here are our top four suggestions for your next glamping adventure in New Zealand once the borders open:
Te Awa Glamping
Te Awa Glamping, a riverside haven, is an immersive experience that allows you to forget about the world through relaxation and recreation. It’s a luxury retreat on the banks of the North Island’s mighty Whanganui River, which is such an important part of New Zealand’s history. Located deep in a family farm with private beach access, guests can arrive by jet-boat, canoe, air, or road for a memorable stay.
Staydium Glamping
You are cordially invited to stay at Eden Park in Auckland, New Zealand’s national stadium. Guests will sleep in a premium glamping dome with a view of one of the world’s most famous sports stadiums. Eden Park has two Staydium Glamping domes in operation. The two domes are adjacent but two metres apart, with doors facing opposite directions to maximise privacy.
Cross Hill
A never-before-seen Geo-dome experience. They provide premium and one-of-a-kind accommodation in Lake Hawea, New Zealand’s South Island. Cross Hill Lodge & Domes guests are treated like family and receive the best in high country hospitality.

Cross Hill provides more than just lodging; it is a place where paths cross, stories are shared, and memories are made.
