Beautiful location. We found it nice to be outside the craziness and traffic of Queenstown.

It’s my earth vision of heaven. I loved the peace and quiet that is hard to find these days. I had some of the best sleeps of my life there. The air is so clean. It was amazing to wake up in the morning briefing so light and easy, and without a headache. My melatonin working on its own. My body just feeling the nature and the energy of the place. One of the nights we saw the most beautiful sky. We stood out side for more than an hour looking the sky and its billions of stars. The entire area is unbelievable beautiful. The staff is amazing. The rooms have the most modern facilities. They have solar power. I wish I had it in my house now. It is another level. It was great to be in a place where they respect the nature. The most luxurious hotels in the world will not give you what you need: peace and love. Apart from that you can also enjoy the many sports activities that the area offers.

I must admit that when my husband said "ecolodge" and "composting toilets" I was a little wary. From arrival we were blown away by the beauty of the property and friendliness of the staff. We were so impressed that we weren't even unpacked and we were discussing extending our stay. We dropped one of our planned stops on our trip to NZ just to stay here longer. Besides being beautifully designed everything is done with great ecological care. Those composting toilets that I was worried about were actually pretty cool and didn't seem much different than a standard toilet. Our cabin was absolutely charming and we were so appreciative of the snacks and drinks left for us. Loved sitting in the chairs on the porch as well. Breakfast was always delicious with so many choices. (Best scrambled eggs I've ever had and the chef graciously shared the secret with me when I asked what the ingredients were.) I also really enjoyed the morning yoga offered.

Brilliant stay in a one-of-a-kind property. It is by far the "greenest" accommodation you'll ever encounter, and the touches of creative artistry, luxury, and fantastic kitchen will push it over the top. Built of largely reclaimed materials and powered by the sun, The Headwaters is a place to remember. From the abundant breakfast to morning yoga to the local art that abounds everywhere, you'll never want for comfort and entertainment. Don't expect bellhops, TV, and room service. DO expect cheery help, a free laundromat, and a relaxing environment in a tiny but scenic town. It's pricey, but bucket-list-worthy.
