WEST COAST TOURISM І<br />

23<br />

Relaxing accommodation in lush<br />

surroundings<br />

Nestled amongst 5.2 hectares of lush West Coast native bush at Franz<br />

Josef, the aptly named Rainforest offers a range of accommodation to<br />

suit all pockets, all requirements, from top-end five-star deluxe suites<br />

with their own patio deck and hot tub, to comfortable houses, cottages,<br />

motel rooms, and even family bunk rooms at the budget end.<br />

The informal, laid-back vibe ensures couples, families and groups will all<br />

find this the perfect place to relax and unwind, with kea and tui providing<br />

the soundtrack.<br />

The spacious on-site Monsoon restaurant and bar provides a friendly<br />

pub-style atmosphere, three roaring fires, delicious home-cooked<br />

food and an extensive range of 50 specialty gins, while the ice-cream<br />

sundaes are a hit with the kids.<br />

The stunning surroundings offer a range of activities from hiking the<br />

glacier, kayaking on Okarito Lagoon and Lake Mapourika, to horsetrekking,<br />

quad-biking, tandem skydiving or just quietly observing the<br />

native wildlife.<br />
