The opening of the Pōhutukawa Tent: Your Ultimate Glamping Destination!

Welcome to the newest addition to the Wild Canvas family: the breathtaking Pōhutukawa Tent!

After two years of meticulous planning, engineering, designing, building, blood, sweat and tears, we are thrilled to announce that our latest glamping site is officially ready to welcome guests for an unforgettable experience in the heart of rural New Zealand.


Constructed with the same attention to detail and commitment to luxury that defines our brand, the Pōhutukawa Tent promises to be a sanctuary of comfort and tranquility amidst the stunning landscapes of Waitomo. Here's everything you need to know about this remarkable addition to our glamping portfolio:


Luxurious Accommodation: The Pōhutukawa Tent boasts four beautifully appointed bedrooms, offering plenty of space for you to share the glamping experience with your loved ones. With a main bathroom, ensuite, and powder room, every aspect of your stay has been carefully considered to ensure maximum comfort and convenience.


Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living: One of the hallmarks of the Pōhutukawa Tent is its seamless integration with the outdoors. Double-glazed glass windows and doors allow you to soak in the panoramic views of the surrounding farmland, regardless of the weather outside. Experience the thrill of camping under the stars without sacrificing any of the comforts of home.


Innovative Design: From the initial design phase to the final construction, the Pōhutukawa Tent represents the pinnacle of glamp design innovation. We've overcome numerous challenges, including meeting strict NZ building codes, engineering solutions for heavy windows and doors, and designing an off-grid power system that harnesses renewable energy sources.


Off-Grid Power: Speaking of which, our off-grid power system ensures that you can enjoy all the modern amenities you need while minimising your environmental impact. With solar panels generating electricity and a wood pellet burner providing heat, you can rest easy knowing that your stay is as eco-friendly as it is luxurious.


Spectacular Outdoor Spaces: Step outside and discover the breathtaking outdoor spaces that surround the Pohutukawa Tent. Whether you're relaxing in the cedar hot tub, gathering around the fire pit, or cooking up a storm in the outdoor kitchen, every moment promises to be unforgettable.


Final Touches: As we put the finishing touches on the Pōhutukawa Tent, we're filled with excitement and anticipation for the memories that will be made here. From painting and furnishing to landscaping, every detail has been carefully curated to ensure that your stay exceeds all expectations.


Join us as we celebrate the opening of the Pōhutukawa Tent and embark on a journey of luxury, adventure, and unparalleled natural beauty.


We can't wait to welcome you to the Wild Canvas family and create memories that will last a lifetime.
