The scenery around the property was stunning and the hosts, Fiona and Alistair, were friendly and very helpful. We hired Alistair to arrange wine tasting for us and he did a superb job. He also answered zillions of questions we had about New Zealand. Fiona provided home-canned fruit for breakfast, which was delicious. We liked everything!

The quality and style of everything is exceptional and we were treated as house guests rather than "clients", which made our stay special. There was absolutely nothing that we did not like about St Michael Lodge.
• Ann (10/5): Exceptional -

• Verified traveler (10/5): - Fiona and Alistair were great hosts. The property is well situated on the hill country above Lake Dunstan, settled amongst the vines of Mount Michael. If you're lucky, Fiona might even have a drop of the vineyards Pinot Noir to sample. It was 32 degrees when we visited so the pool was a welcome site. Would certainly visit again.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - great place and excellent hospitality
• Peter (10/5): Perfection - A very special place. Perfect room with fabulous views just metres from the Tropic of Capricorn. Very nice people. Luxurious accommodation and sumptuous breakfast.Ideal for a special occasion.
• Robert (10/5): Nice accommodations! - Great accommodations! The owners are the best! On the other hand I would never book anything through Expedia again. This has no reflection on my stay.
• Ali (10/5): Lyxigt b&b med underbara värdar! - Underbart ställe! Lyxigt boende med fint och rymligt rum. Vi älskade detta b&b med väldigt trevliga värdar (Fiona & Alistair) som tog väl hand om oss och var super att umgås med. Sovrummet har AC, skön säng och bra tv med Netflix, youtube och allt annat man kan önska. Frukosten som ingick var god hemlagad och mättande! Rekommenderar detta ställe varmt och skulle definitivt bo här igen. Vi stannade två nätter och på dagarna har man flertalet vingårdar man kan besöka. Finns även fruktgårdar där du kan plocka dina egna körsbär vilket var kul och gott :-)
• Verified traveler (10/5): Tolle Lage, super Ausstattung - Es handelt sich um eine sehr luxuriöse Unterkunft, die Ausstattung des Zimmers ist einfach top ! Es gibt einen Pool und einen Garten, von welchem man eine grandiose Aussicht über die Region hat. Weiterhin kann man kostenlos Fahrräder ausleihen. Die Gastgeber Fiona und Alistair sind sehr hilfsbereit und nebenbei auch noch tolle Köche.
