ABOUT MURIWAI LODGE

Muriwai Lodge and its campground has been part of any Muriwai Beach experience since 1921 when the Lodge building was built. The Lodge opened in 1922 and over the last century it has been much loved by the residents of Muriwai and its millions of visitors – as a place to stay, a place to eat & drink and buy provisions. The ‘Top Shop’ takeaways were legendary!

In 2019 all activity on the site ceased and it did not start coming back to life until May 2021 when the Lodge and its grounds were sold to new owners. The Muriwai Lodge Revival began…but on 13 February Cyclone Gabrielle threw us a curve ball causing landslips and damaging many Muriwai properties. This forced us to close until expert safety assessments were completed. In late August this work was complete and we were notified that it was now safe to return and reopen the Lodge.

While there is still a bit to do outside to repair our damaged landscaping all of our accommodation (none of which was damaged) has been cleaned and is ready for you to come and stay!

Check out our two apartments in the Lodge building and Cabins 1 and 2.
