Our home, “Kawau Lodge” is
located in North Cove, Kawau Island, Auckland New Zealand,
and overlooks
one of the most sheltered anchorages in the Hauraki Gulf.
Our guest accommodation comprises 2 modern, queen bedrooms each with
its own large ensuite with heated floor and towel rail. The units
are equipped with quality furnishings throughout, have tea and
coffee making facilities, lovely soft bathrobes plus books and
magazines for your enjoyment. Each room comes equipped with its own
dvd player so bring your own cd's or dvd's. There is also a guest fridge
available for your use. Upstairs we have a large, private super-king
/ twin bed suite with its own ensuite and deck area. Guests can feel free to use the comfortable, informal
lounge and dining areas plus enjoy the many outdoor areas around
the garden and decks.
Environmental policies
At Kawau Lodge we endeavour to be as environmentally conscious as possible. We use rainwater for all our water requirements i.e. showers, toilet, laundry, garden watering, solar panels to heat our water, a bio-cycle system for all waste water, compost all household
scraps, shred paper, and we take all bottles and plastic to the mainland for recycling. We believe that everybody, everywhere from big 5 star resorts to cheap hotels to any kind of establishment can and should do their best for the environment. There are systems to use that are more gentle on the Earth.
These systems all require a little more care and attention than those used in cities, so we appreciate your co-operation when using them.
We use eco cleaning products which are biodegradable and environmentally friendly and our soaps and shampoos are all made from natural and essential oils with no chemical detergents.
In your room you will find information about the Kiwi Green Regeneration programme which promotes sponsorship of kauri and other trees native to New Zealand. This could be used to offset your carbon footprint, commemorate the memory of a loved one or contribute to our country's clean and green image. If you are interested in this project, please just ask
