Huka Lodge. The Best Of The Best.

Submitted by NZMRM Editors on Fri, 30/10/2009 - 12:00am

The number one Australiasian destination for Royalty, celebrities and political figures has just completed their multi-million dollar refurbishment programme designed by Queenstown architect Fred van Brandenburg.

Fred van Brandenburg, has skillfully worked with clever window treatments and reconfiguration of space to create more light and enhanced spaciousness within the rooms. The work at the tranquil Huka Lodge retreat has been spread over a 2 year period to avoid any inconvenience to guests.

The refurbishment required  a roofing material that could perform in the moist forest environment that surrounds the complex. ColorCote® ARX in Metallic Anodised Bronze was the chosen material.

Calder Stewart Roofing installed their Eurotray Roll Seam
profile to the buildings. Four Double Suites were completed in stage one totalling about 500m2 of roofing.

The second stage was the upgrading of four Queen Suite units with an additional 1100m2 Eurotray roll seam profile.

Calder Stewart craftsmen installers from as far away as Invercargill
travelled to Huka Lodge, on the banks of the Waikato River, Taupo, to ensure that the project progressed on schedule.
