Walk through our forest trails. Explore our mini-waterfalls up the track from the mini-hydro plant. Swim with the Endless swimjets in the heated magnesium pool and bathe in the Maruia river or run through our paddocks for some active leisure . Then choose your next adventure - return to a beautiful meal, a forest bathe in the river hot tub and sauna, then a massage, a delicious 3-course dinner, stargazing from your villa balcony and a good night's sleep.

Whatever it is that you need right now to relax is waiting at Maruia. Permission to stop. Come with that. We'll hold the space. 🌿

Maruia is open everyday until July 3, 2027.

Spring Fever at Maruia.
The river. The forest. The light shining through the native bush.

No itinerary. No crowds. No distractions.
Just a few days together — walking the forest trails, soaking in the river hot tub, having a massage, eating well, and resting deeply. Together.

Move when you want. Rest when you need. That's the balance.
This is what a Lover’s Luxury Getaway looks like at Maruia River Retreat. 🌿
