The St James’ Hosts

We holidayed in Hanmer Springs and loved the place so much we built a holiday retreat for ourselves and visited from Wellington at every opportunity! Over the 2008 Christmas period we decided it was time to leave the hustle and bustle of the big city and make a permanent move south. We now enjoy the tranquility of the Hanmer Springs alpine village, where there is no traffic (so no traffic jams or parking meters) just friendly people, magnificent scenery and a gentle pace of life.

We also love to travel and know that a warm, friendly welcome, 5 star premium accommodation and the personal touch make travel experiences unique. Our aim is to create that special place where you can relax in our magical part of New Zealand.
