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.

The staff was amazing at this property. They were kind and helpful. They worked together well as a team and worked hard to truly make us feel welcome. The food was so good!! The room was really bright and the view was phenomenal. I recommend taking the water taxi from Picton, but the drive was scenic. Thank you Punga Cove for a memorable stay.

As part of our Queen Charlotte walk we also stayed at Punga Cove. Compared to Furneaux Lodge and The Portage, Punga felt VERY dated back to the 70s and 80s and poorly maintained. We had an apartment and could hear every footstep of the people above is. For almost NZ$600 this is not good enough. On a positive note, the setting and food were wonderful.

The perfect place to stay all be it steep in places to get round but great spot amazing food too.

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.

Beautiful place to stay and relax in great comfort
What a beautiful place to stop over and spoil ourselves whilst we walked the Queen Charlotte Track. Accomodation was really high standard and the view from our balcony was incredible. We had a great fish dinner and breakfast and enjoyed the pool and hot tub.
