There’s something new waiting for you at Lynton Downs…
We’ve partnered with Moana Skies to bring a truly special experience directly to our guests — private stargazing, right here on the property.
As the sun sets and the last light fades over the Kaikōura ranges, your evening doesn’t have to end there…
Step outside and into one of the clearest night skies in New Zealand.
No travel, no crowds — just the stillness of the countryside and a sky full of stars above you.
Guided by Moana Skies, you’ll explore the universe through powerful telescopes, uncover distant planets, star clusters, and galaxies, and hear the stories that bring the night sky to life.
This experience is designed to be as relaxed and personal as your stay with us — whether you’re unwinding as a couple, sharing it with family, or simply taking a quiet moment to look up. ❤️
✨ Private, on-site experience for Lynton Downs guests
✨ Hosted under some of Kaikōura’s darkest skies
✨ A seamless addition to your stay
We’ve always believed Lynton
Downs is a place to slow down, switch off, and reconnect — and now, that includes the sky above.
If you’d like to include stargazing during your stay, just let us know when booking or speak to us during your visit.
Your night doesn’t end at sunset… it begins. 🔭🌌
