Club Lavaud
Resort overview
Experience peace and tranquility in the heart of an ancient volcano. Located in the delightful seaside town of Akaroa, on the Banks Peninsula, Club Lavaud is a charming boutique timeshare resort with a distinct Gaelic flavour. Surrounded by picturesque hills covered with lush green vegetation and beautiful blue bays, this former French settlement is just 75 km from Christchurch.
The resort is a mix of colonial architecture and modern amenities, and offers a relaxing escape from the daily grind. The fully self-contained apartments feature two bathrooms with spa baths, as well as private balconies.
Overlooking Akaroa harbour, one of New Zealand’s finest deep-water harbours, 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. The resort’s location makes it the perfect water sports playground for yachting, power boating, windsurfing, water-skiing, swimming or bobbing around in a rowboat. Discovering the dramatic scenery of the outer bays in a sea kayak is simply spectacular. The best way to experience the breathtaking natural beauty of the peninsula is to take advantage of the fantastic walks and cycle tracks that weave among the many beaches and streams, or catch a boat to get up close to the rare and beautiful Hectors Dolphin, one of the smallest dolphins in the world. While the history buffs are soaking up the area’s rich past, everyone else can sample the delicious selection of local wines and exquisite cheeses.
Experience a delightful holiday that feeds body, mind and spirit—at Club Lavaud.
