Awesome place... the houses/cottages were very clean, well maintained and well equipped .The kitchen was properly stocked with many appliances, vessels, etc. Staff were super friendly and very helpful. All the shops, restaurants, and other commodity places in the town are very nearby to the cottages. We stayed there for one night and it had great views from the top floor windows. The cottages are itself properly insulated from the cold climate outside, apt for vacations or holidays.
The property was the size of a house, so there was plenty of room for all of us. Everything was beautiful with a fully equipped kitchen allowing us to prepare meals. Very comfortable. Heated floors in the bathrooms, very luxurious. The only issue I had was that I was travelling with elderly parents and the stairs were a bit of a challenge for them (not that the stairs were challenging but I am finding stairs are an issue for my parents in general and might be for other travelers as well). Take the short walk down to the Lake through the park next to the hotel and enjoy the spectacular views. It was also great to enjoy the hot tub. We really enjoyed our stay here.
Enjoyed our stay in the lovely townhouse with front yard parking. Unit was clean, warm, comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Would have given a perfect 10 if the red sofa had been reupholstered.

We had the two bedroom townhouse unit. It is very spacious. The recerption staff was very friendly. The location is very convenient. It is only 5 min drive to the Lake Tekapo, the restaurants, the grocery store and the landmark church.
Located in a great spot - very warm and comfortable place to stay - we were lucky enough to see snow!
Highly recommend for families - we travelled with my parents and didn’t feel on top of each other. Everyone had enough space.
