About

About this getaway

Canopy Camping Escapes is a New Zealand-owned glamping collection founded in 2012 by Liz Henderson and Sonia Minnaar, curating 200+ handpicked escapes from Otago to the Far North. Based on the Kapiti Coast, the team of eight seeks out off-the-beaten-track tents, quirky cabins, and secret hideaways — from super luxurious to simple and rustic — each with a strong connection to nature.

Guests book direct through canopycamping.co.nz to discover whimsical canvas tents, personality-filled cabins, and secluded nature stays designed for unplugging, slowing down, and reconnecting. Many escapes intentionally limit Wi-Fi and mobile reception so guests can step away from screens and back into the outdoors.

For international wellness and slow-travel planners researching New Zealand glamping, Canopy Camping Escapes offers a curated book-direct alternative to generic OTAs — one collection, many magical destinations across Aotearoa.

Liz Henderson and Sonia Minnaar started Canopy Camping Escapes in 2012 with a simple idea: arrive at a beautiful location with a luxury canvas tent already set up — private, secluded, with hot water, a comfortable bed, and warmth even in the middle of nowhere.
