On the cocktails of multi-million-dollar brand development by owners Coherent Hotel Ltd, Kāmana Lakehouse made debut as Queenstown’s newest boutique accommodation. The brand is positioned as an independent boutique hotel. It is designed to create customer-centric experiences in a luxury décor.

Kāmana Lakehouse is set to be the flagship for new Kāmana properties. Each of them will reflect the distinct environment of its New Zealand location.
Kāmana Lakehouse is perched high above Wakatipu Lake. Keeping in mind the comfort of the guest, the hotel features 73 ensuite rooms with high quality beds, plush furnishings and luxury amenities.
The living space, lies at the centre of the property received providing intimate social space. It features lounge areas with fireplaces, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a wrap-around deck, the lake and mountains beyond.
The room décor is modern and includes modern connectivity, excellent bedding comfort and small indulgent touches such as the RealWorld New Zealand-made, natural bodycare. The hotel’s new Nest Kitchen and Bar, provides second-to-none views.
Richard Crouch, General Manager, who was previously Aspen Hotel’s GM, says: “The location here with panoramic views across Lake Wakatipu is spectacular, and our product is allowing guests to engage with that in a real way.”
Apart from the scenic lake views, Kāmana Lakehouse reflects Queenstown’s spirit of adventure, and offers the perfect comfortable retreat in an elegant setting.
Juan Pablo Aravena, new head chef joins the team of this new hotel. He had been previously associated with Millhouse at Millbrook.
As per Richard, Kāmana Lakehouse will become Queenstown’s next hot spot providing beautiful modern Mediterranean alfresco meal, an après-ski cocktail, or a get together.
