WELCOME TO RAINFOREST MOTEL IN FOX GLACIER
The Rainforest Motel is a family-owned and operated motel situated in the small, picturesque village of Fox Glacier on the West Coast of the South Island. We are perfectly situated for you to enjoy a relaxing break while exploring the tranquillity of the Westland National Park and South West World Heritage Area.
We are within walking distance of a number of good-quality restaurants serving great food, wines and coffee, yet only a short drive will take you to the spectacular ice formations of the Fox Glacier, the tranquil beauty of Lake Matheson and the Peak Viewpoint, or the wild, rugged coastline at Gillespies Beach.
Rooms
We have 12 ground-floor Fox Glacier accommodation units located in our spacious grounds. All our motel units are smokefree.
Fox Glacier Accommodation
We have 12 ground-floor units, situated on spacious grounds in a beautiful garden setting. We have 6 studio units, 2 x 1-bedroom units and 4 x 2-bedroom units. We are a traditional New Zealand motel with well-equipped kitchens and ensuite bathrooms. So whether you are traveling by yourself, with a group of friends or with your whole family we should have an accommodation option to suit you.
We provide free fibre broadband and are the only motel in Fox Glacier offering SKY TV, including SKY Movies, SKY Sports and BBC World.
Fox Glacier Activities
The glacier region offers a large range of things to do – glacier hikes and helicopter flights, wilderness walks to Lake Matheson and Gault, beachcombing at Gillespies Beach, biking and hiking through the native rainforest, glowworms, and plenty more... We can advise you on how to get the most out of the area, so please don't arrive on the evening and leave first thing in the morning – why not stay a couple of nights?
