Guest Reviews

• Rachael (10/5): - Good location & great facilities
• Wombat Poo (8/5): -
• Albena (8/5): -
• Wen Zong (10/5): -
• Daniela (10/5): Apartment in ruhiger Lage, fußläufig zum See - Apartment war etwas außerhalb, konnten abends den tollen Sternenhimmel beobachten. Aber See, Kirche , Einkaufsmöglichkeit gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Sehr sauber, ruhig. Problemlose kontaktlose Codeübergabe.
• S (9/5): -
• Lisa (7/5): Lake Tekapo stunning with beautiful views over the calm and tranquil water - Comfortable and modern decor. Good communication and easy check in process Soulless sitting amongst numerous other holiday rental properties. Felt like a new build rental village.
• Divya (10/5): -
• Yichang (9/5): Great location, nice room with modern facilities - The suite is located in a quiet neighbourhood with shared parking with several other units, only 2 minutes' drive to the main street and the lake. The facilities are modern and clean, very good for a short stay with families and friends. There are constructions happening around the suite, causing a little bit of disturbing noise, but not too much, and of course not during the night.
• Ashish (9/5): It was overall satisfactory stay - All facilities, except dryer as drying is difficult in cold and rainy conditions May be a single bed instead of sofa cum bed of the property is booked for 3 person
• siyan (10/5): Recommended - Cosy lovely home, it’s clean and quiet, with facilities we needed. Prompt replies from property owners. We found no oil provided while cooking, but not a big deal.
• Onmanee (9/5): Excellent vacation home, clise to community mall area and clean - Spacious and clean with convenience parking Nothing
• YAN (9/5): - 房间干净卫生，有专用停车位，有洗衣机，地理位置优越，推荐
• Sheetal (10/5): Loved it. And will recommend it to friends & families - Everything was good. It has got a kitchen for a quick breakfast or even to have take away dinners.
• Dane (10/5): Great communication, making for a seamless visit. - Very clean, nice amenities.
• Surbhi (10/5): -
• Lei (4/5): 像住进了集装箱 - 位置还不错，离湖走路十来分钟 感觉像住进了集装箱，空间过小
• Dolors (5/5): - Un sitio muy normal. Las vistas spn horribles Un poco caro para lo que ofrecen
• MH (10/5): Great choice! - Clean. Fully equipped. Comfortable bed. Late arrival. Parking was tight. We just parked across the street. Lots of space.
• Hatsune (8/5): -
• Eloise (10/5): Cozy stay, attentive host - Exceeded my expectations/ awesome facilities (washing machine, cooking facilities etc. Lu Lu was an attentive caring host. Cozy accommodation
• Mohammad Mateen Malik (10/5): - God beliggenhed, værelset var rummeligt og super praktisk med vaskemaskinen. Alt var perfekt.
• András (8/5): -
• Theodora (10/5): - Great place to spend a few days to visit Lake Tekapo. Parking spaces are quite narrow but otherwise the facilities were great.
• Savannah (10/5): - Great little spot in Tekapo with all the perfect amenities needed! Couldn’t fault a thing!
• Matthew (9/5): -
• Baer279 (8/5): praktisch gelegene Unterkunft mit guter Ausstattung, aber schlechtem Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis - gute Ausstattung, bequeme Betten, modern und sauber, praktische Lage (in einem Wohngebiet mit vielen Touristen-Appartments) für Besuch des Dark Sky Observatoriums die Appartments sind direkt aneinander angrenzende Container; von außen nicht schön, aber wenn die beiden Nachbarn einigermaßen ruhig sind, geht es; Aussicht auf eine Baustelle
• Stella (8/5): - Owner very responsive, good facilites. Parking's kinda narrow, and the location's a bit far compared to other accommodations.
• jin (8/5): - 特卡波湖就这么大地方，旺季住宿接待比较有限，我们对于房屋设施的齐全和整洁还是相当满意的了 地板觉得有必要更清洗干净，可能和经常做饭有关吧
• Alex (8/5): It will be a good place to stay when the development is finished but is overpriced at the moment. - Very well appointed with good quality appliances Looked out directly onto a building site with a digger right in front of our view. Constantly smell of marajuianas when outside the property
• Christopher (7/5): Pleasant but could have been much better given the cost per night which promised more than it gave. - Well located, easy to find, a modern thoughtfully furnished unit. Although modern and well appointed with floral decorations and complimentary chocolates, the unit had not been commissioned. The bedside lamps could not be used as they were not fitted with NZ connectors. The TV had not been configured with either the satellite , cable or landline services so was not available for guests to use.
• Chang (10/5): -
• Guillermo (5/5): -
• natalie (7/5): - The size was good for the three of us. And location although out of the centre a bit it was easy to get around More kitchen equipment for cooking. The Xmas tree was still up but this could of been due to the fact that the nationality of the people that own the property not sure when it should come down.
• ma (10/5): 卧室门口观星出片实在太舒适了 - 设施齐全且比较新，晚上卧室出来就直接拍观星照 无
• SUSHIL (10/5): -
• Ravinder (9/5): -
• Manli (10/5): A wonderful stay with a great location and an exceptionally thoughtful host - The suite looks more like a private villa, located within a small residential area. Parking was very convenient, and it’s only about a 5-minute drive to the Church of the Good Shepherd and Lake Tekapo, making the location excellent. The accommodation is well equipped and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The host was extremely responsible and attentive. She sent clear arrival instructions in advance and contacted us promptly after check-out to let us know that we had left something behind. Thanks to her care and professionalism, we were able to successfully recover our lost item, which we truly appreciated. We feel very lucky to have met such a kind and thoughtful host. She also mentioned that she has other properties by the lakeside, which we would definitely consider booking next time. Lake Tekapo is absolutely beautiful - although the weather wasn’t perfect during our visit, it gives us a good reason to come back again. there is only one bathroom
• hui (1/5): 除了贵没太多毛病，值得体验。 - 简单地解决一晚租可以的。周边灯火通明，不适合观星。 一切美好众生，因为已经离开，房间面积可以。
• Jeff (8/5): - Could benefit with a dryer
• Reshma (8/5): - Clean and tidy Little far from the lake
• Andrea (10/5): -
• Susan (8/5): OK for one night. - Clean and the bed was comfortable. Bathroom was excellent. We thought 500 NZ dollars a night for what was a ship sized cabin way too expensive and notes about upkeep/dishes etc were not needed as basically you leave it how you find it. No TV instructions but found freeview as TV not programmed. Refridgerator hum 2 metres from bed. -best to integrate the fridge in this situation. Lights for utilities/wifi plugs etc dotted all over the cabin. The place was lit up like a christmas tree at night.
• Crystal (8/5): - The room is equipped with good facilities and it looks new and clean. The single bed is not firm enough. It was shaking when you turned over.
• Carrie (10/5): -
• Sze Ching Angel (9/5): Good. - Place was very clean and new. Very nice. The queen bed was two single beds pushed together leaving a gap in the middle which was a bit uncomfortable. Also there was a switch under the bed due to the electric heating blankets which we had to adjust.
• David (8/5): Had a great time and great Chinese food - Super clean and well prepared. Efficient layout and very good communication with property manager. A nice walk to city center and great selection of food and restaurant choices. Highly recommend Jade Palace for authentic Chinese. Excellent hike (John’s walk) to excellent view of lake and great little cafe on top. Like all properties in Tekapo it was expensive.
• Kevin (6/5): Good once you are inside - The room was good if a little cosy for two. We really liked both the dishwasher and washing machine which came with dishwasher tablets and washing powder. Good bathroom and everything was very clean. Just a walk to a short drive from the centre of the village. Easy car parking. The room was at the end of the long road out of Tekapo where most of the village's accommodation is situated. Even in summer it's a bit bleak. As others have mentioned the outside of the building is a little industrial. There is lots of new building going on so the deck looks out onto other cabin and a building works - not very scenic
• Yixi (8/5): -
• Yanina (10/5): -
• Gursher (6/5): Not value for money - Overall good property good location good amenities provided. However the beds were terrible really fragile was not comfortable at all. For the price we paid for property you would expect much better amenities The beds were terrible really fragile was not comfortable at all. For the price we paid for property you would expect much better amenities
• Yingchao (8/5): -
• Neelima (4/5): Just ordinary - No breakfast Furniture was really bad quality One of the dining chairs was broken
• Enzo (6/5): Correct mais déçu ! - L'hébergement était conforme aux photos, très propre. Les lits étaient très confortables, la cuisine était très bien équipée. Nous étions dans un pré-fabriqué, avec vue sur les voisins. Très cher la nuit pour être dans un pré-fabriqué ! Lorsque nous sommes sortis sur la terrasse pour apprécier les étoiles, la lumière de la terrasse s'est allumée, ce qui a gâché ce plaisir et nous n'avons pas pu en profiter.
• 建华 (10/5): -
• Yuriy (10/5): Location, location, location - This is a beautiful, new house with absolutely everything you could need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is fully equipped, the bathroom is excellent, and the space is spotless, quiet, and very well maintained. The location by Lake Tekapo is outstanding, with great restaurants, the lake, and the dark sky, if you get lucky with stargazing, all within easy walking distance, so there is no need to drive at all. Communication was excellent and smooth throughout, making the entire stay effortless.
• Pradeep (6/5): I wouldn’t stay there again ! - Comfortable room no reception was given check-in proceedure by email … complicated instructions to open the door … not something required after a tiring drive . Once in the room it was very comfortable .. Very tight parking spot outside the room
• Elena (4/5): Call the property and verify the type of room you are getting in advance. - The property was easy to find and get into. We were visiting during the Holidays and the hosts graciously provided a bottle of wine and some sweet treats. Thank you. Unfortunately, the way the pictures are displayed on booking.com is misleading. I was under the impression that were going to have a suite (one room with the sofa and a bedroom). This was not the case. We ended up sharing 1 small room for 4 people.
• Alex (1/5): Complete rip off - For this asking price you would expect a premium experience, found a s* show instead. Was allocated Room 1. The first thing you notice when you walk in is the distinct smell of cheap cleaning products. Then there are two odd foreign insect repellant looking plugs connected through adapters at each side of the room. Looking at past reviews there was a mouse found in one of the rooms a few months back. Towels - overpowering smell of vinegar on all towels given, one was worn out and had clearly visible holes. Bedside lamps missing components (safety?) and are sitting unplugged with no way to plug them in. A ton of rubbish and dust underneath the bed. No face cloths (standard in most hotel rooms). Couldn't even navigate YouTube as it was set to foreign language setting. Look elsewhere. Yes there is a washing machine (which stinks) and cooking equipment however you can easily find these in most other accomodation options in the area. The asking price is also ridiculous, while the Lake Tekapo area is more expensive overall, I paid more than three times less (!!) for something more reputable with cooktop and washing machine options (and more) the night before. Stay away.
• Lin (10/5): - A very lovely little house with well-equipped facilities. I especially loved the electric blanket. After stargazing, my whole body was freezing, and the electric blanket truly saved me. The only downside was that there were spider webs on the outdoor chairs.
• Erin (10/5): -
• Chong (9/5): - Pretty new, spacious and well equipped. Price may be on the premium side
• Mayank (9/5): Comfortable, well-located stay with a special personal touch, Lu was an incredible host. - All the information was promptly shared by the owner in a well articulated message. Cannot think of anything. All was good.
• Gaofeng (1/5): - 1/ the property amenities are very cheap. 2/ The room is very small, basically one queen bed + sofa bed leaves almost no spaces. 3/ Smelly in the entry area, maybe from the bathroom. 4/ Way over priced.
• Anna (10/5): - Всё чисто, уютно, есть стиральная машина, посудомоечная. Вид из окна на расссвет чудесный Нет такого
• min (10/5): -
• JI YEON (4/5): - 가격에 비해 숙소 위치, 전망 등이 실망스러움. 이 비용을 지불하고 다시 예약하진 않을 듯함.
• Lou (10/5): -
• YANRU (9/5): 非常舒适，有机会再来！ - 设施完善，卫生间有加热装置，洗澡时不冷，每个房间有自己的独立车位，方便停车。 没有
• joanna (10/5): -
• Glenda (9/5): Very comfortable - All the extra appliances- washing machine with dryer, dishwasher with plenty of tablets and washing powder. Then in the bathroom extra large shampoo and conditioner. Had a problem with TV and assistance came straight away. Distance from main street, needed car.
• Lejla (6/5): Location is great - Location There was a big black book with loads of rules.(a little put off the way how it is worded) It is very expensive for a cabin style accommodation, but everyone is charging similar rates in this location.
• Birgitta (10/5): -
• Jillian (5/5): I felt the room was expensive for what it offered. The car parking was very small and the location was a dustance from -
• Ying (8/5): -
• Brenda (10/5): - Beautiful property with everything you need and then some.
• Almitra (9/5): Great place to stay - Very cozy with all necessary facilities. The room was well equipped for short and long stays and very clean. The host was in touch throughout the process.
• Kitamura (8/5): -
• Jarvi (9/5): Loved how clean and modern the unit is. - The inside of the property is beautiful and clean. Location is very close to the main road and sites. The only downside is the parking spots are very tight and the house are built very close to each other so the view is not the best. Very clean and bed was great
• YuLin (10/5): -
• Abhishek (10/5): Beautiful accommodation and well maintained - Well maintained property with all the amenities. Good location with good sunset views.
• Isabela (10/5): - Nice and confortable place to stay in Lake Tekapo. Nothing
• Mu Chiu (9/5): -
• John (8/5): Very clean and comfortable studio apartment - Very modern, clean and comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. Slippers supplied which was a nice touch. From a personal preference perspective, the location was a little bit further from the shops/restaurants than we'd have ideally liked (a short drive rather than a walk) and there's no real view/outlook.
• Mark (8/5): - Good location Kitchen bins were full on arrival and apartment had aroma of cooking and bins. Otherwise was good for 1 night stop over
• RAYMOND (7/5): Good base to explore Lake Tekapo - Place was clean and well appointed Bed was not comfortable
• Khosla (10/5): Great stay will recommend this property to anyone looking to spend a good time in Lake Tekapo. - The space was designed really well, clean and had all the amenities. My family really loved it. The host was also super kind and lovely.
• Anastasia (8/5): Brand-new and exceptionally clean but further away from the main street - Stayed for one night as a family of three. The property felt brand new - exceptionally clean, very nicely decorated, plenty of storage, and the beds were very comfy. The location is a bit further away from the main street and the lake, but still in a walkable distance. A new development area, so there were some construction sites nearby.
• Orla (10/5): - Everything
• Wei (8/5): -
• Wendy (9/5): - Everything was as it described
• Cynthia Xin (10/5): - 地理位置方便，非常干净整洁。
• Dilpreet (10/5): Cozy and comfortable - Cleanliness Nothing that I did not like.
• Maria (8/5): -
• Silvia (7/5): -
• LAURA (1/5): The room have been fine if there hadn’t been a rodent in residence. - Location. There was a mouse in the room.
• Sanjay (10/5): - Clean and well appointmented unit with brand new appliances
• Amos (10/5): - Fantastically comfortable accommodations with modern amenities. Excellent location to Dark Sky and other sights in Tekapo. The rooms aren't very soundproof, so you can hear the conversations of other guests, or the sound of washing machines going off.
• Rutuja (10/5): -
• Jen (7/5): Clean and modern - Very clean and modern No full length mirror bed a bit small and hard no view
