Te Hāpua Glamping is set on the coastal dune zone on the Kāpiti Coast, close to Te Horo Beach and just 1 hour from Wellington City.
Sleeping up to five, the Te Hāpua Wetlands Tent is a beautiful setting for celebrating a special occasion with the people you love. Whether it’s a family birthday, an anniversary or simply a chance to gather together somewhere memorable, this spacious glamping retreat offers plenty of room to relax, reconnect and enjoy time together.
The tent sits next to a wetland lake – one of New Zealand’s rarest and most precious ecosystems – and is recognised locally as an area of special significance. While perfect for couples, it’s also ideal family or group accommodation in a truly unique setting. For couples looking for an especially romantic retreat, we also recommend checking out the sister property,
Te Hāpua Coastal – a dreamy escape with views to Kāpiti Island.
Decked out with a luxurious four-poster queen bed, a bunk room containing three single beds and lots of comfortable seating, everything has been thought of for easy, comfortable glamping. A spacious verandah at the front of the tent is a natural gathering place for sharing meals, socialising and watching the wetland wildlife.
The property is 700m from the beach access and 1km from the water’s edge. Head down for a swim and some beach action, or enjoy a gentle walk at sunset. If you want to go further afield, check out some of the local activities – there’s horse riding, bush walking at Otaki Forks, or bird-watching at Nga Manu Nature Reserve.
In the evening, kick back, relax and jump in the hot tub – big enough for the whole family – for a soak and some stargazing. It’s a fitting end to a day spent celebrating, reconnecting and making memories together.
