Massage and Health Treatments:
Our qualified aromatherapist will provide you with exceptional individual health treatments. We use only organic essential oils for their medicinal and therapeutic properties in massage, inhalation, topically, footbaths or as a bath treatment. Aromatherapy works on a holistic level by addressing the physical body, mind, emotions and spirit. Aromatherapy focuses on the development of wellbeing and enjoyment of life in a system of self-responsibility. It is a healing process in the capable hands of someone who can translate any concerns into a revitalizing and nurturing treatment.

Fine Dining:
Your fine dining experience will be created from locally sourced seasonal produce from the Canterbury and Banks Peninsula region, eg: Akaroa Salmon, Canterbury lamb, aged beef and pork.
Each quality cuisine course will be complimented by matching award winning local wines. The region is recognized for award winning Pinot and Riesling varieties. After your day enjoying the activities of Taurikura Lodge enjoy the ambience of the guest lounge with a pre-dinner cocktail. Then let your gourmet experience begin in the formal guest dining room.
