Te Wepu Pods Akaroa

This place is FANTASTIC !!We had one of the best days of our life here.The hot tub is amazing, a 100% private place on top of the mountains with astonishing view.It was raining a little bit during our stay but as I was excepting, it was awesome in rain.Highly recommended.Kate and Richie (the hosts) are amazing people, super friendly and helpful. They go above and beyond for everything.We did not order the Kate Hamper because I simply forgot to do that, but when I tasted the local honey, homemade muselli, and Kate's Crackers, I could imagine how great the Hamper could be.We'll definitely come back.

Staying at the pods is one of very unique experience. We enjoyed the environment, the weather, the quiet cosy wee area, the hot tub, as well as the hamper of delicious food. Rickie and Kate were also very warm hearted and welcomed us upon arrival. It's one kind of escape from the city that none of the motels can compare to. We'll come back and stay for longer nights next time. Very recommended.PS - Order the hamper food together with your stay is highly recommended and you won't regret it.

Thanks Kate and family for making us so welcome we had an amazing holiday on your beautiful hillside. We really switched off. The hot tubs were a treat and the hamper made catering easy. The view was spectacular and one we will remember.

Absolutely amazing location and set up and fantastic hosts. Had the pleasure of visiting here a couple of weeks ago as a surprise gift from my partner. Couldn't of asked for a more perfect weekend away. I would highly recommend that anyone looking for a glamping" weekend away of relaxation to stop looking and book this place. Thank you again to the owners clearly very passionate about what they do as it shows from the moment you get there."

A couple of months ago we had a delightful stay at Te Wepu with Kate and Richie.The pods are situated in lush farmland looking out over to the beautiful Akaroa harbour. Our stay was punctuated with some pretty awful weather, but this didn't dampen the impact of the wonderful set up at our 'pod home'. Our favourite part of the day was sitting in the hot pool with the rain on our heads, followed by the options of eating marshmellows cooked over the fire, or choosing which delicacy to eat first from our hamper (the sausages are so divine we picked up some more from Richie on our way home!). The bedroom pod was warm, safe and comforting, much like that gorgeous alpaca blanket I nearly put in my bag as I left.. hehe. It is the attention to detail, the love and the care that is put into every aspect of this experience that makes it so special. Thank you Kate and Richie for sharing your slice of paradise with us.

This place is a true gem! We stayed here for two nights (to end our travels on the South Island “in style”) and simply loved it. The incredible view, bird songs, hot tub, comfiest bed, a fire pit to stay warm in the evenings and the best drop down loo you’ve ever seen ;) We felt like we were at the end of the world and really hope to be back one day. Thanks Richie & Kate!The homemade crackers deserve a shoutout too, the best treat upon arrival!

Stop looking and book your spot at Te Weepu Intrepid Pods. Such a unique experience. Everything is just perfect. Excellent service. Beautiful views. Amazing hot tub. We had everything we needed - even marshmallows for the fire pit! At night the stars come out to entertain. Highly recommend!

My fiancé and I recently stayed at the Pods for the weekend.It was the perfect 2-night getaway from technology, hustle and bustle, and the stresses of city life.The hot tub overlooking Ōnawe Peninsula is beautiful, and Kate's Weekend Hamper is a fantastic addition to what is probably one of NZ's best glamping destinations.We would definitely recommend.

Could not recommend this place enough! The owners were super friendly. The meats from them were amazing! We cooked everything on the grill at the pods. The location is gorgeous and so relaxing. I have never experienced anything like it; highly highly recommend experiencing the Te Wepu Pods!Oh and the chocolate brownie desert was to die for, yum!
