The rooms were very clean and well set out for families. The communal kitchen area was centrally located within the motel and had everything need for a home cooked meal. Equipment included microwaves, ovens, hotplates, kettle, toaster, cutlery, crockery, pots and pans, baking dishes and other utensils required for cooking. The motel was situated walking distance to town (you could cut through the park to reach town). There was a trampoline in the back area for the kids to burn off some energy after a long drive. We also used the communal laundry which took coins only, big machines to fit plenty in. Overall a great stay and experience; Thank you!

The place is clean and comfortable. The bedsheets used are of good quality. We had a good night sleep. The fact that the carpark lot is just next to the apartment makes it very easy for self-driving travellers like us to offload our luggage. The counter staff, Sapphire, was very helpful when we checked in. And we directed to drive to a little-known place for stargazing and watch the southern lights!

The only minus point about the property is that it outside and not within walking distance to the city centre. There is also no eatery nearby and we had to drive into the town for food. It is not suitable for travellers without a car.

The apartment had everything I needed for a comfortable stay—spacious rooms, cozy furniture, and modern amenities. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the bathroom was spotless. The location was also fantastic—quiet, yet conveniently close to shops and restaurants. The host was very responsive and provided clear instructions for check-in, which made the whole process smooth and hassle-free. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, clean, and well-located home for their stay. Looking forward to staying here again in the future!

Comfortable and well sized for a family of 4. Kids enjoyed the single bed each after having to share in previous places. Clean rooms, shower was comfortable and as expected. Sofa was a pleasure to sit on and heating was appreciated. 2 entry doors made early morning walk easier without waking up kids.

Toilet seat fell off but easy to reattach. Remote control for television had dead batteries and after hours check in didn’t allow for replacement meaning no movie night 😔 Some more walking paths rather than gravel would be nice.

The property was extremely comfortable and had everything that was needed. The water pressure was good and was hot and the bed was extremely comfortable. The staff were lovely. Ample parking. The location was great with 2 min walk to town or to the lake. The apartment was spacious and liked the balcony. The apartment was warm and easy to control temperature which was important in winter. Thanks for a great stay

Nothing major except the shower did make the toilet floor wet so a mop would have been helpful. Just a personal preference I would have preferred better quality cutlery but having everything provided and a kitchenette was excellent and would definitely stay again.

My partner and I arrived late in the evening and the check in process was still so smooth. The beds were very comfortable (it has the option of being heated too), the couch and the TV were appreciated, and the heating was exceptional especially in the cold weather. We had a little kitchenette with a microwave and pyrex bowls for microwaving that we didn't really compromise on our meals. Location wise, it's a really good distance from all local amenities and our host gave us so much information regarding where to go around the area. Definitely staying here again when we come back!

Room was clean. Facilities were in good working order. Check in after hours was clearly communicated, which was lovely. Located close to the town center (walking distance). Lots of info on what to do around Te Anau and surrounds.

It would have been great to have coffee and milk replenished. We were informed that they give complimentary milk only on arrival but you only find that out when you get there and the milk is very little (250ml) for 3 people.

We were really impressed with the motel. Everything was clean, comfortable, and tasteful, and what's available for travelers through the communal kitchen, outdoor dining area, barbecues, etc. is fantastic. It was a short and easy (5 min) walk to the downtown and the waterfront, so we left the car behind and were able to go out for activities and meals (other than breakfast--for that we used the kitchen area). Everyone who works at the motel was gracious and welcoming.

The room was spacious and clean, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. We attended for a marathon event in the town and I think the property was full of people all competing in the same event which put a lot of pressure on the hot water for showers after it finished! The staff were so apologetic for this and went out of their way to show this. I was very impressed with how it was handled.

The shower was like a wet room in the bathroom which meant the water flooded the bathroom floor. That is my only negative comment!

Located within walking distance of business district and boat to the glowworm cave. Well-named, as much of property is open space. Playground equipment for kids. Laundry room. Pleasant staff. Plenty of shelf space that is suitable for luggage. Heated mattress pad was nice.

The shower curtain had too large a gap to the floor and almost the entire bathroom floor would be wet after a shower. We learned not to leave anything on the floor during a shower.
