Tokoeka PurePod is situated amidst lush native bush in an eco-sanctuary teeming with birdlife, including the famous kiwi. This beautiful sanctuary is located on the breathtaking Rakiura Stewart Island, a part of the southern-most Dark Sky Reserve and offers couples or solo travellers a spectacular place to relax and unwind.

From the PurePod, you'll be treated to stunning views of the native bush surroundings and magical vistas down to the bay below. Experience beautiful sunsets, engage in star-gazing and wake up to the gentle chorus of birdsong and sunlight reflecting off the water. The PurePod provides a unique opportunity for kiwi spotting from the comfort of its interior, thanks to special red lighting.

Embark on your journey to Tokoeka PurePod with a choice between a scenic 15-minute flight from Invercargill or a 60-minute ferry ride from Bluff. Upon reaching the island, you can opt to walk, hire a bike, or take a taxi for the remaining 4km to the entrance of the Mamaku Point Conservation Reserve.
