About Fenian Retreat

A modern house in Karamea with a rectangular shape, featuring a mix of wood and black metal siding, large windows, and a spacious porch with outdoor seating.

Creating a Sanctuary in Karamea

At Fenian Retreat, we believe in creating more than just a place to stay—we’ve crafted a peaceful haven where guests can truly relax, reconnect, and immerse themselves in the beauty of Karamea.

Nestled on New Zealand’s breathtaking West Coast, Fenian Retreat offers a unique alternative to standard motel accommodations. With panoramic views, a private hot tub, and tranquil surroundings, our retreat provides a home-away-from-home experience that’s perfect for couples, families, and solo travelers alike.

Meet Your Hosts: Joanne and Steve

After many years in the dairy farming industry, Joanne and Steve saw an opportunity to share their love of Karamea with the world. Fenian Retreat was born from their vision of providing visitors with something special: a private, comfortable escape that combines thoughtful touches with the serene beauty of the region.
