Kepler Mountain View

AMAZING STAY!! I do not have enough Accolades to express how much we enjoyed our stay. If you are going to Doubtful Sound... THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE!! You will be sleeping before the rest of the boat tour is 1/2 way back to their hotel! This place is middle of Alpaca Farm, unit/building is a very private but a part of a larger barn/storage structure. Unit was large and immaculate. There is fridge cooktop microwave pots pans dishwasher plates silverware. Also, a Washer and Dryer which we found EXTREEMLY handy for middle of out 3-week NZ trip. Bed was very nice and we slept perfectly for our 3-night stay. There is a Jacuzzi 10 steps from the unit that was wonderful to use at night. We followed the owners written instructions to turn the water temp up and down before and after use. This practice will save owners monies hence, save you(who is reading this) keeping the rental rate down, Be mindful of Jacuzzis are expensive to run and upkeep. It is FANTASTIC owner have this enjoyable feature! I had great correspondence with the owner through Booking,com prior to our visit. However, owner was out of town the days we were there. There is a Lady(I do not recall her name) that tended to the Alpaca Farm while they were away. This Lady gave us tour of farm where you could pet and feed Alpacas. I can not say enough about the hospitality this lady gave us during our stay. She provided WONDERFULL tips about Doubtful, Milford sounds as well as great information about our travels to Wanaka and Mt Cook. She was such a delight to speak with she represents the owners wonderfully as a host! Owner recycles/filters rain water which was amazing. Water tastes like "nothing" simply the way water should taste, refreshing and cold right from tap. Far cry from any city water or well water. We filled all our water bottles before we left. DO NOT MISS THIS EXPERIENCE!! It is stay and hospitality, we will forever remember on our NZ visit!

PERFECT STAY!

As close to being at home as you can when travelling! Great place.

Fabulous location with amazing views. Friendly hosts and great facilities.

Excellent stay.

The hosts were absolutely lovely, gracious and kind. They gave us a tour of their alpaca farm and we got to see a wee one born the morning we left. They are excellent hosts. Loved the hot tub looking out over the mountains and pastures.

Comfortable, clean , quiet and a tour of the Alpaca farm

Nothing

Everything is great. Hot tub is amazing! Great facilities, everything you could need. Owners are super friendly, took us on a tour of the alpaca farm after as well.

We couldn’t make the sound work on the TV. Volume showed it was going up/down but couldn’t ever hear anything, we tried both remotes. Not sure if it was something we did wrong but didn’t seem to be working on the tv, Netflix or on sky box. Not a big issue, as we weren’t going to spend much time watching tv when we could be in the hot tub!

The cabin is in a beautiful setting, serene and comfortable in every way, with exceptionally friendly, helpful hosts. Meeting the alpacas is the icing on the cake.

Sad to leave.

Great location on an Alpaca Farm just out of town. Very comfortable bed.
