Peppers Bluewater Resort

Peppers Bluewater Resort, Lake Tekapo, is the latest glimmering spectacle on New Zealand's South Island.

Surrounded by the spectacular landscapes of the Southern Alps, Lake Tekapo is the largest and highest glacial lake in New Zealand. Peppers Bluewater Resort is located on State Highway 8, a scenic two-and-a-half hour drive from both Christchurch and Queenstown.

The Mount Cook and Mackenzie District is a burgeoning tourist destination, and with its jewel, Lake Tekapo, at its heart, is the perfect base from which to explore the natural wonders of the Mackenzie Basin.

Inspired by the lake's characteristic turquoise-blue hue, 72 rooms offer a variety of accommodations, from standard hotel rooms to one, two and three bedroom villas, all with essential modern comforts. Timber and leather textures reflect the earthy tones of the Mackenzie Basin, while moods are reflected in the calming blue waters across the foothills of the Southern Alps.
