Fox Glacier TOP 10 Holiday Park and Motels

Set beneath the towering Southern Alps in Fox Glacier, this park-and-motel combo sits minutes from Lake Matheson and a short drive to Franz Josef Glacier. You're steps from the Fox Glacier Glow Worm Forest and within easy reach of local highlights like Te Wahipounamu and the West Coast's glacier activities. Hokitika airport is the nearest major air link, about 160 km away.

A mix of modern motels, self-contained units, lodges and cabins—plus powered and tent sites—gives travellers plenty of options. Rooms and units feature flat-screen TVs, safes and electric kettles, with daily housekeeping for convenience. The park keeps a peaceful, rural vibe with sweeping mountain views and communal facilities designed for explorers.

Stretch out on the terrace or in the garden, fire up the barbecue at the picnic area, and pick up local-walk guidebooks to get the most from the trails. Onsite tour and ticket assistance makes glacier trips easy. Free self-parking and communal laundry keep travel simple—wake up to crisp mountain-air mornings.

Practical touches include luggage storage, a library, laundry facilities and wireless internet access (charges may apply). Free self parking is available onsite.
