Such a comfortable place to stay in a spectacular location. We stayed as a group of 6, in two rooms. Everyone raved about how well they slept and how comfy the beds were and how beautiful the view from each room was.
The staff were exceptional. They went above and beyond to ensure that we enjoyed our stay
I would highly recommend The Portage Resort.

The location is gorgeous - it was nice to get away from the town. The hosts were really nice and the breakfast was delicious. The check-in instructions were clear and helpful. They kindly facilitated our very late check in as we were getting the late ferry.

Formed one highlight of walking the Queen Charlottes Trail. Very isolated, charmingly rustic, beautiful views, relaxing outside hot tub.

Supposed to walk the QC track but our daughter fell ill and so we ditched the tent this section to stay here while her fever subsided the next day. It did not, so we stayed the next day, and the next day.... and eventually we had to give up walking the track at all. Spent our 4 days at Te Mahia and maybe that was a plan. It was beautifully peaceful and just a tranquil place. Accommodation is excellent, very comfortable beds, well appointed, everything you could possibly need, plenty of hot water, friendly owner, could not fault the place. Would come back with family to spend time here again. Easy to get the boat to/from Waterfall. Just an amazing view every day. Good walks up to the lookout where you can see for miles on clear days.

The Portage was a lovely place to stay, the views were amazing and the staff extremely helpful. We were dissapointed about only 1 restaurant being open, and therefore not a large selection to choose from. We would recommend asking in advance, if they can make up a sharing platter, as this is not on the menu, and when we asked, they mentioned we should have ordered in advance. The beautiful view from the deck totally lends itself to drinking and grazing on a delicious platter. The kids loved the kayaks and paddle boards. We would recommend booking a transfer and taking a picnic to a secluded beach - we had a wonderful time.

Portage is a fantastic location, with stunning scenery, not too far off the Queen Charlotte Track, also accessible by car for the non-walkers.
Restaurant meals at the resort were disappointing, with not many options and inflated prices.
Plenty of accommodation options, from camping at Cowshed Bay to staying in the resort. We found a cosy B&B just up the road which suited us perfectly.
We stayed at Portage for a night while walking the Queen Charlotte track. We got upgraded to the Tui room, which had a lovely view of the sound. The bed was very comfy and the room had everything you need for a night stay. We had dinner at the restaurant, which was great and the staff were friendly. We got a lift to the beginning of the track, which saved 700m of uphill walk on the road.

The Portage was a wonderful place to stay. The staff were fantastic, and the view was amazing, and the beds were really comfortable. The pool was wonderful, and the paddle boards and kayaks kept the kids entertained
