We stayed for 2 nights in a 1 bedroom cabin. It has the most amazing views and the QCT is in very close proximity. Highly recommend walking to Furneaux Lodge for lunch. Shame the weather wasn't better during our stay as we would have liked to enjoy the SUP boards and kayaks - we'll just have to come back!

I stayed at Punga Cove Resort for 2 nights while walking the section of Queen Charlotte Track from Ships Ciove to Punga Cove. Punga Cove is a great place to stay. I was in a hikers cabin, and it was perfect for my stay. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The food and views from the restaurant were amazing! A big shout-out to the Canadian staff member who was working in the restaurant..you were very helpful, friendly, hardworking and made people feel welcome! I definitely recommend Punga Cove, and hope to return one day!

This place really does meet all the cliches you've ever heard of - a piece of paradise, a slice of heaven, etc, etc. Great facilities even in April I had a swim, then into the hot tub, hubby had a kayak, sat on the lake deck bar and had a wine. Accommodation is very cute, clean and tidy. We stayed in A-frame units. Grounds are stunning..

Lovely place to chill out in the Marlborough Sounds. We walked there from Furneaux Lodge, its sister establishment 13km away round Endeavour Inlet. It’s the lesser sister though: the food wasn’t up to Furneaux’s standard, relying too much on warming drawers and appearing at startling speed in a tepid state. Perhaps they are short-staffed. Pity.

Situated just before a long section of the Queen Charlotte Track, the location and amenities afford a yearly walker/traveller to take stock of the surrounding while relaxing in a noice spa or swimming pool. Food is available at the Jetty Cafe (closed on wet days) or from the restaurant towards the top of the resort. The food was consistently of high quality and all freshly made. The choice of rooms is very good with something for singles, couples or families. We were made to feel very welcome from arrival through to departure. We were also well impressed finding it to be in a lovely quiet cove right on the QC track itself.

The pizza is the best I have ever tasted, the waiters and chef were so kind and every time I looked at them they greeted me with a friendly smile, thank you and keep making this delicious pizza! The only thing I didn’t like was that I didn’t get to see the pizza dough get spun

So beautiful. We were wet when we arrived and there were umbrellas, and a drying room for our gear. The room was such a good size for a family of four. We could all sit and play games and have a drink without having to squeeze in or sit on our beds. There is a pool and table tennis table kayaks and paddle boards. The staff were good although we didn’t need much. The restaurant had good variety and although it was expensive for us it was relative to the high quality and the fact it is remote and hard to access. Everything we needed to know was explained at check in. I would have easily stayed another day and would absolutely stay again! Such a lovely place.

Punga was a welcome change after Furneaux Lodge of which I had expected better. The walk between the 2 hotels is definitely worthwhile. Upon arrival our baggage had already arrived. We were allocated a cabin which had (some) Seaview and located near the reception at the lower part of the property. Room facilities were fine and the balcony at the front of the cabin a good space to watch the stars and hear the water of the Marlborough Sound. Dinner in the restaurant was disappointing but breakfast better. The transfers between Picton are very well organised and Marlborough Sounds are definitely worth it but be prepared that this has a price tag...
