Our holiday home on the beach
Experience the true essence of a New Zealand beach holiday.
In 1968, Torrent Bay Lodge was a small cottage where our family spent summers enjoying this piece of paradise.
Since then, weâve extended and refurbished it into a comfortable lodge that still retains the relaxed charm of the original bach â now with modern comforts of hot showers, central heating, memorable meals and luxurious beds, of course!
A truly special setting
Sitting just above the tide line on a stunning golden beach, Torrent Bay Lodge provides the perfect place to truly escape, revive and reconnect.
After a delicious dinner, stargaze at New Zealandâs famously clear night sky or retire to your comfortable bed and let the waves soothe you to sleep.
At daybreak, rise and shine for a peaceful walk along the beach (or swim!), or enjoy a well-earned sleep-in before tucking into a hearty home-cooked breakfast with freshly brewed coffee.
There are thirteen comfortable, ensuite twin/double guest rooms, each named after ships that featured in the nautical history of the Abel Tasman coast.
Part of your Abel Tasman journey
Torrent Bay Lodge is included in our 3 and 5 day Abel Tasman multiday journeys, where walking, kayaking and coastal cruising are combined with welcoming lodge stays.
By day you explore the park. By evening you return to the comfort and hospitality of the homestead.
Memorable meals by the sea
After a day exploring the Abel Tasman, guests gather to enjoy relaxed shared meals, either inside the lodge or outside on the front deck, overlooking the beach.
Our chefs create seasonal menus using fresh New Zealand ingredients, designed to refuel and delight after a day outdoors. Meals are enjoyed together in a welcoming atmosphere that reflects the relaxed spirit of the lodge.
Dinner, breakfast and packed lunches are included as part of our lodge-based journeys, allowing you to simply arrive, relax, and enjoy the experience.
Beer, wine and other cold beverages are available for purchase, so you can enjoy a drink with dinner or relax with a glass of wine in the evening.
A place for gatherings
Because of its relaxed beachfront setting, Torrent Bay Lodge is also a wonderful place for small weddings, family gatherings and special celebrations.
For these occasions, the lodge can sometimes be booked for exclusive use, allowing your group to enjoy this special place together.
