Description
Okarito has about thirty year-around residents and is a quiet village known for its peaceful ambiance. Being off of the beaten track, Okarito is an ‘experience’ only for those who seek it. A very special place, with characteristics such as; its peaceful quality, the wild coastline, mountain views, lagoon, white herons and kiwi, and forest backdrops. They contrast and complement the glacial and commercial focus of Franz and Fox Glacier townships.
Restaurants, grocery, fuel etc. are available 20 minutes away in the township of Franz Josef Glacier. Okarito and the West Coast as a whole offers an unparalleled convergence of natural environments combined with a casual lifestyle.
Here the dense, native bush which typifies the West Coast abuts the towering, snow-covered Southern Alps whose presence dominates everything below. The Okarito Lagoon, located on the shores of the Tasman Sea is the largest unmodified wetland in New Zealand. The entire region surrounding Okarito is permanently protected by Westland National Park and Kiwi Sanctuary.
Cedar Cottage is purpose built as a holiday Bach. Local activities include coastal and bush walks, kayaking, fishing, whitebaiting, kiwi tours, and boat tours on Okarito Lagoon. In Franz Josef, flights, glacier walks and hotpools.

“Spent awesome two days in Okarito, beautiful weather, spectacular sunset, sighting of Kiwis on the night tour, will recommend this place to everyone. Must be the comfiest beds in NZ. Many thanks for the gift.

“Okarito was the only place in New Zealand I really wanted to see, otherwise I’ve been happy to see everything we’ve seen. But only this place has had a special meaning to me – even before we came. It has not let me down, in fact it feels almost painful to leave.
Cedar Cottage has been by far the best accommodation we’ve had, it’s perfect! Thank you so much for making my dream come true!

“Thank you Brian and Raewyn. Okarito was quite a find and we loved the seclusion of this village of some 20 or 30 people. The walks and beaches are marvellous. Cedar Cottage was even more of a surprise as we found it beautifully decorated inside, without going over the top. We wanted to avoid the tourist haven of Franz Josef and we were so happy that we found your cottage. Thank you also for the small gift that you left us. Mark”
