Packages are available all year, subject to rooms being free on the nights you want. They are quoted for two guests unless the line says otherwise, and they include everything already in a room rate: breakfast, the bath house, internet and storage.
Book a package the same way as a room. Send the enquiry form, phone reservations on +64 3 409 0628, or write to [email protected]. Tickets and bookings held by third parties, such as the steamer and the gondola, are issued at reception on arrival.

Gaming credit is loaded to a card at reception and can only be used in that room, in person. Nothing on this website can be played, staked or deposited, and Wave Passage does not offer online or remote gaming of any kind.
