The Okarito Beach House is a real haven, away from the main tourist trail. It is situated within a stone's throw of dramatic West Coast beaches, close to the glacier township of Franz Josef.We have two lodges available, each with three en suite double or twin rooms and one private self contained chalet. Linen and bathroom amenities are included and WIFI internet and laundry is available to all guests for free. There is no shop in the village so be sure to bring food so you can make use of our fully equipped kitchens.

Really good advertising and website with some good photos, pity the real thing didn't measure up. Firstly, this is not a 'beach house', in fact you can't even see the beach from the house. It has the feeling of a hostel with shared kitchen which...More

Hi Lizzie.
My apologies for not getting back to you sooner. I'm on holiday and the Beach House is closed until Mon 11th July.
We do allow dogs, and during the quiet times (up until Nov) we don't charge any more for late checkout.
Unfortunately it won't let me post our email address here, but if you google 'Okarito Beach House' our website has all our contact details.
Again, sorry for the delay in getting back to you. If there's anything else I can help with please let me know.
Kind Regards,
Aaron
