About this listing

Be captivated on a beautiful trek around Pepin Island and enjoy the phenomenal scenery and views of Cable Bay and Tasman Bay along the way.

Nestled amongst native kanuka and coastal New Zealand bush, situated on a cliff, is Rocky Point Hut. Stay and unwind in the beautiful and private hut with a comfortable natural wooden interior. Take in all of the incredible surrounding coastal scenery from various lookouts, and watch the spectacular sunsets in the evening. Spend your time relaxing and treat yourself in the hot outdoor bath with a panoramic view over Tasman Bay. The perfect setting for a private adventurous getaway or a stunning and relaxing romantic retreat.

A medium-hard walk; 3km, 2 hours, around the Tasman Bay side of Pepin Island is required to reach the hut. But don't despair, we have included transport to the hut if you just want to enjoy the views. Holly will meet you at reception in our farm buggy.

Supply your own food or contact us about our food packages.

Outdoor gas hot water bath on the hilltop with a panoramic ocean view and composting toilet.

Outdoor seating areas with phenomenal views.

Island summit viewpoint, 1 hour walk uphill from Rocky Point Hut.

Please note: The walk to the hut is challenging, especially with bags, book a ride with us so you arrive refreshed and relaxed. Due to the remote location, facilities are limited. There is no way to charge your phone, please bring a power bank.

Testimonials

Rocky Point Nov 24

Rocky Point Hut is an amazing place to stay! You feel like you're on the edge of the earth (in a good way), even though it's just a short hike away from the mainland. Beautiful views, comfortable bed, huge stargazing and a private beach a short walk away. Definitely more than worth the effort to get to.

Rocky point hut was incredible! The hike up was challenging but well worth it. The hut is completely private overlooking the ocean. The outdoor tub was a treat. Highly recommend!

This was one of the highlights of our trip and the whole experience was amazing. The hut is very beautiful and cozy and the bath with the view was everything. Very responsive hosts and worked out great getting a lift to the hut and back from the car park. The surroundings are amazing, so peaceful and private. It is a really special place and we are so happy to have celebrated into 2025 here :)

The most stunning place we stayed on our whole trip. amazing to be so private, the Bathtub is what sold it and it lived up to the photos! the beach is a tricky climb down especially at high tide but so worth it. cannot put into words how incredible this place is. we would come back in a heartbeat.

Everything we hoped it would be and more. If you are reading reviews and are on the fence about this place just book it already! My one recommended would be to spring for the ride to and from, as the hike there is pretty brutal.

We've just had a lovely stay at Rocky Point. The surroundings are absolutely stunning, the photos don't do it justice. The place is simple but well equipped for a short stay, and the bed was so comfortable. Sian and Holly were really helpful, responsive, and welcoming hosts. Really recommend for a truly unique, serene stay.

What a unique experience to end our trip around the South Island! Rocky Point Hut was just what we needed for ultimate relaxation and seclusion. We enjoyed exploring the trails and beach and all parts of the cozy hut (- nothing like grilling on what felt like the edge of the island & the tub was as good as it looks!) Holly and Sian were great communicators and made our stay very enjoyable. Thank you for a perfect retreat!

A very beautiful location! (Rocky Hut) Very private and quiet, surrounded by the sound of nature. A private beach not too far away well worth the walk. Hike to the hut is challenging but well worth the effort with a rewarding bath over looking the ocean! Would definitely stay here again in the future.
