"Views and natural light from our corner room was fabulous. Very convenient location for walking to Lake Tekapo village. Fantastic value and experience. The only negative - parking near the unit was a bit of a challenge later in the day."
"We booked a deluxe cabin. Clean but a bit worn, but a fantastic lakeside location and parking space directly behind the unit.
Basic self catering equipment supplied
Excellent stay despite the rain!"
"This is a great location as it's just across the road from shops and an easy 5 min walk to the Church of the Good Shepherd. The room was clean and cozy, although it seems to be next to the laundry so you can hear the staff talking and working as they did the laundry and hear the machines going. They usually only start from around 8am until early evening, but if you're a bit sensitive to noise, this might not be ideal. The kettle was also broken although the owner apologised. The driveway and parking for this particular room can be a bit steep, so it's not ideal for people who have issues with walking, etc. But there are other rooms you can book on this property that are more accessible."
"The accommodation was great, good location and comfortable beds. The booking process was arduous, I booked and paid online and then received a bunch of emails with things I needed to send or promoting add ons- send your licence, send a selfie. Definitely more work than our usual holiday home booking process."
