Solscape

- Currently closed for our off season 01 May - 30 November - - Reopening for summer 2023/24 Solscape is intended to foster our connection with one another and the natural world by providing a place for rest, rejuvenation, and playful inspiration. We are nestled on 10 acres at the foot of Mt Karioi with breathtaking views over the Tasman Sea in magical Raglan, New Zealand, just a short walk from the world famous surf of Manu Bay and Ngarunui Beach. Raglan has a distinct laid-back atmosphere and a diverse range of eateries to suit all tastes. The main street is lined with interesting shops selling a variety of bohemian arts and crafts. We are 2 hours south of Auckland and 40 minutes west of Hamilton, and are just a few kilometres from Raglan township on New Zealands beautiful west coast. Our key intention is to see ‘good’ come from what we do. Its good for our customers, our community, and the environment. Relax in our varied up-cycled to modern lodgings, with options to suit all budgets. Our simple eco accommodation demonstrates sustainable practises and is purposefully designed to fit within our primary goals of reducing our ecological footprint and inspiring our visitors with many working models of sustainable living. All caboose guests share communal restrooms, and beds are made up with high-quality linen. Best known for long peeling left-hand point breaks, Raglan also offers ideal conditions for beginners and novice surfers. Solscape Eco Retreat offers board and wet suit hire. Raglan is a premier kiteboarding destination in New Zealand, too. Because of Raglans natural land formations, kiteboarding is possible in almost any wind direction. Raglan has several bush and beach walks, including Mt Karioi, Te Toto Gorge, and the stunning Bridal Veil Falls waterfall track. There are numerous other ways to connect with nature in Raglan, such as kayaking and horseback riding tours. On-site services include healing massage therapists, yoga classes, and a sauna and ice bath. Please inform Solscape in advance of your expected arrival time.
