Mountain View Retreat - The Perfect Private Escape | House in Hokitika
3 Bedroom House in Hokitika
Welcome to Mountain View Retreat – A Haven for Families and Bird Enthusiasts
Nestled just 6km east of Hokitika, on the way to the tranquil Lake Kaniere, Mountain View Retreat offers the perfect escape to relax, explore, and reconnect with the beauty of the Southern Alps. The property is also a delight for bird enthusiasts with several kererū (New Zealand wood pigeons). Enjoy the serenity of nature and the charm of these majestic birds as you unwind in this peaceful retreat.
We are just an email or message away if you require any assistance during your stay.
We have a very busy focused team and trying to reach us by phone can be challenging so for a swift reply please use the reservation platform you booked through.
You will have the entire house to make your own, kick back and relax. Private driveway for secure parking.
Our spacious holiday home is designed with families and groups in mind, offering three beautifully furnished bedrooms, two modern bathrooms, and two cozy lounges where everyone can spread out and relax. Whether you're swapping stories over a family board game, curling up with a good book, or simply gazing out at the majestic mountains, there’s space for everyone to feel right at home.
Rain or shine, there’s plenty to enjoy. On those rare West Coast rainy days, the house is a warm and inviting retreat, perfect for enjoying quality time together. And when the sun is shining, step outside and take advantage of the ample room to ride bikes, play, or simply soak up the tranquility.
You might even spot or hear the kereru (native wood pigeon) as they gracefully swoop through the trees, adding to the peaceful atmosphere.

Mountain View Retreat is equipped with two (2) commercial-sized air conditioning/heat pumps - one in each lounge - ensuring the home stays warm and welcoming in every season.
At the owners’ request and in the interest of safety and care for all our guests, the fireplaces are NOT available for use. There is no firewood supplied or stored at the property for this reason.
We appreciate your understanding, and we’re confident you’ll find the heat pumps keep the whole house cosy and comfortable throughout your stay.

Travelling with an Electric Vehicle?
If you’re travelling with an electric car, you're very welcome to charge it here at the property during your stay. Please bring your own charging cable - a longer one can be helpful, as plug access is usually inside the house.

Whichever option works best, we hope it helps keep your travels smooth and easy.
