Perched right at the southern tip of the South Island, this boutique hotel caters to travellers reaching the end of the line on the mainland. A stay right on the coastal edge means waking to the Southern Ocean and the moody weather of Foveaux Strait, suiting visitors after a quiet, dramatic base rather than a standard commercial stopover.
You will find it on Ward Parade in Bluff, set apart from the larger motels up the road in Invercargill. It serves as a solitary retreat for those journeying south or catching the ferry across to Stewart Island.
