Club Lavaud

Delight in the charm of New Zealand’s Banks Peninsula at Club Lavaud, in the seaside town of Akaroa southeast of Christchurch. With the distinct French influence of the township, the Gallic-inspired resort at Club Lavaud is a unique and interesting holiday destination to visit year round.

Enclosed by picturesque hills covered with rich green vegetation and sheltered in its own harbour on Banks Peninsula, Club Lavaud is surrounded by breathtaking scenery and natural attractions, including cruises out to swim with the rare and tiny Hectors Dolphin. Explore peaceful bush walks, cycle tracks, and surrounding beaches and streams, before returning to the comfortable quarters at Club Lavaud.

The fully self-contained apartments feature two bathrooms with spa baths, as well as private balconies and BBQs. Overlooking Akaroa harbour, Club Lavaud is just a five minute stroll from the town centre, where you’ll find first class restaurants, boutique shops, and art galleries offering works by talented local artists.

An exceptional mix of colonial architecture and modern amenities, a holiday at Club Lavaud offers a pleasurable and relaxing utopian getaway. Experience peace and serenity in the heart of an ancient volcano, topped off with tours to taste wine and cheese produced on the Peninsula.
