Great base to explore Aoraki Mt Cook, Mary, the owner was friendly and gave good information about the area: Twizel, Mt Cook, she has a good taste of decor. Spacious room, mini fridge, guest lounge, self service complimentary breakfast, wide open space (located on the airfield, but no noise at night). this lodge has great view of mountains. I loved everything. I would stay again if I come back to this area.

We had a great stay at Pukaki lodge. The room is clean and spacious with sets of sofa. Mary, the owner, is very friendly and gave us tips on visiting Mt Cook national park. The breakfast is basic, but tasty and does the job. The view from the room is great.

Glorious stay, through and through! Unique hotel situated right on the airstrip with a clear view of the mountain range. Beautiful sunsets. Clear starry skies Perfect way to end your day hiking by Mt Cook. Also we even plans take off and land (even saw a skydiver coast down). The owners are so welcoming. They showed us the hanger with their restored historic plane. The rooms and large and beautifully decorated. Modern bathrooms. Comfortable beds made for a great sleep. Wonderful breakfast and great send off. We cannot get over how wonderful of a stay we had.

Pukaki air lodge is exclusively positioned near the shores of Lake pukaki and literally next to the airport runway is the most spectacular scenery in the area.. This place is designed to maximize the panoramic views of the mountains and the most beautiful sunsets.. Our hosts Mary and her partner are so kind and warm, and gave us access to the communal kitchen for all needs and necessities.. Highly recommended staying here..

A very beautiful and interesting place to stay
We were welcomed by Mary who was very helpful and informative. Our room was very large, clean and modern. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. There was plenty for breakfast with a good variety. We had a great view from outside our room. It overlooked the airstrip with a great view of Mount Cook in the distance. We saw Mary’s husband on departure and he kindly took the time to show us his aircraft inside their hangar which was amazing. The only downside we found was the wifi was very slow but overall it was a very peaceful and interesting place and we really enjoyed our stay.
