Off Grid Forest Escape
With a Conscience
Hidden deep within a private native forest, Puketui is a secluded retreat designed for quiet connection and conscious living.
Just 12 minutes from Taupō and Kinloch, it offers an effortless balance of isolation and accessibility, where nature, design, and sustainability come together in perfect harmony.
Glamping on a
whole new level
Tucked within a private New Zealand forest, The Piwakawaka Pod House is a carefully crafted escape for those who seek something more than a place to stay.
Two bespoke adjoining pods create a natural rhythm between rest and connection, designed for couples who want space to breathe and moments worth lingering in.
An outdoor bath under the forest canopy, a covered kitchen open to the trees, and private tracks winding through native bush complete an experience that is as unhurried as it is unforgettable.
Off the grid with nature
Designed with a light footprint, Puketui is fully off-grid, powered by solar energy and complemented by modern, considered composting systems.
Spend your time as you wish: slow mornings on the deck, evenings by the fire, or quiet walks through the forest. However you choose to experience it, you’ll leave feeling grounded, refreshed, and reconnected.
"'There is so much to love about this tucked away gem. Fireplace, outdoor bath, nature loo...the best part? Its fully off grid. Luxury that doesn't come at a cost”
