Wanaka Investment - Altamont Lodge Shares for Sale


The Company has 68 shares with around 55 shareholders at any one time – some shareholders owning more than one share. Shares are traded publicly and are listed on the NZ Companies Office Website. Five elected directors provide governance and overall business management while the day-to-day management of the Lodge is carried out by a manager under contract to the Company. The Lodge Manager has accommodation on site in a 2 bedroom cottage with office attached.

To meet the high quality low cost company vision, vacant rooms are let to the public and the fees generated have covered all costs of maintaining the Lodge to a very high standard, with healthy working reserves, resulting in no annual fees to shareholders for the last twenty years.
