AT WAIPUNA ESTATE
Your private hotel quality experience awaits you
WiFi and modern amenities merge seamlessly with our remote, tranquil location in the Port Hills above the Canterbury Plains to offer an other-worldly stay like no other in Christchurch. Whether you are staying in our luxury accommodation, or we are hosting your wedding, private function, or corporate event, you can be assured of a warm welcome, great South Island hospitality, and friendly professional service.
WEDDINGS
Our speciality
Our experienced team of professionals will be on hand to make your day perfect and keep everyone smiling.
Set in beautiful gardens and native bush, nestled into the hills above Tai Tapu, Waipuna Estate is the ultimate wedding venue, providing a romantic setting for your ceremony and reception and even accommodation before and after your wedding.
Every small detail is important when creating your magical wedding. It’s impossible for a bride to organise everything herself and then step back and enjoy her day like nothing could go wrong.
We believe the only job a bride needs to do is share her desires for her ideal day with us, our job is to make it all happen!
Treat your guests to the exclusive Waipuna
for a magical setting for your special day.
We host dozens of weddings every year, so you’ll feel safe leaving us in charge of your romantic day, which means you can enjoy it as you truly should: stress free with not a care in the world.
Make use of our wedding packages which take your big day to the next level: think helicopter tour to your exclusive photo shoot location, romantic accommodation packages to host your wedding party to get ready for the big day, and a honeymoon suite for after so you don’t have to travel. Add a romantic tour package or request a bespoke one put together by our event expert, to kick off your honeymoon.
STAY WITH US
B&B Private Accommodation
Book the whole house or stay in one of our private suites. The four private guest bedrooms in our modern, spacious villa can accommodate up to 10 adults.
Our master bedroom has incredible views and is the perfect, secluded honeymoon suite. Romance the weekend away with a romance accommodation package. Relax in our expansive living areas and wander through Waipuna’s park-like grounds.
Our guests love waking to the sounds of nature and enjoying one of our ‘famous’ cooked or continental breakfasts. We’d love to share Waipuna with you.
EVENTS
The perfect venue for your private function, corporate events and formal parties.
Impress your business associates when you host your next function or meeting at our private estate, set above the Canterbury Plains.
