We had a wonderful stay at Tekapo Heights. The location was absolutely fantastic—situated in a quiet spot with stunning views, yet just a short walk to great food and beverage options in the heart of Lake Tekapo. One of the highlights was how close it was to the iconic Church of the Good Shepherd, which made for an easy and scenic stroll. The Tekapo Springs hot pools were also nearby, perfect for a relaxing soak after a day of exploring. The property itself was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, offering a peaceful retreat with beautiful surroundings. It was also a great base for a day trip to Mt. Cook, and we enjoyed a delicious stop for fresh salmon sashimi at one of the local farms along the way.

The only downside was the lack of laundry facilities, which would have been convenient during a longer trip.

We had a wonderful stay at Tekapo Heights, situated in the stunning Lake Tekapo area. The view from the property was absolutely breathtaking, offering a perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The room was immaculate and very well-maintained, providing a comfortable and cozy atmosphere. The attention to cleanliness and detail was evident, and it made our stay exceptionally pleasant. The location is ideal for anyone looking to experience the natural beauty of Lake Tekapo, with easy access to local attractions and activities. I highly recommend Tekapo Heights for anyone seeking a serene and picturesque retreat. I look forward to returning in the future.

Very well appointed; tasteful decor and quality fittings throughout. Parking was not a problem for us and access to the property was easy. It’s a hilly walk to the main area of Tekapo but it’s within easy reach by car.

I hope I’m not being too critical as first impression was very good. It came across as more of a bedsit with an oversized ensuite in relation to the bedroom. There was a tasteful timber cabinet which hosted a microwave, a kettle and the usual assortment of tea and coffee sachets. There was some cutlery and crockery inside the cabinet. Problem was; there was no place to sit and enjoy a cup of tea. There were two very nice chairs but hopelessly placed alongside the bed. There was a timber seat and table combo outside, but Tekapo being Tekapo it’s not always practical to sit outside. We had to defrost our car windscreen in the morning!

Good location within walking distance of the lake, we could also see the stars at night from the garden. The staff were very helpful, (although we didn't have the pleasure of meeting them) arranging contactless check in and check out.

Parking area is a little cramped and difficult to get in and out of. A view of the lake would have been nice, but these are minor things.

The room was very clean and equipped with almost everything we need. There is no facilities. All we did was self check-in. It is calm and quiet. Good sound insolation that we didn't hear anything from next door. It also has parking place for us. Overall very good! The location is not near to the lake. It needs driving, but only 2-3 mins away.

The table in the room was a little small for us. It would be better with bigger side table to enjoy the time staying in the room. The restroom was very big, but there was no tub in it. It would be perfect if there was tub.

Easy to access room from instructions on day. Fantastic view of Lake Tepako from elevated aspect. Easy walk to and from bars, restaurants and supermarket which are just down a short hill. Really comfortable large bed and nice en-suite.

Limited cooking facilities, just a microwave, fridge and kettle - a toaster would have been good.

Extremely easy check in & check out Instructions to find the place were easy to follow. Location was lovely & quiet. Onsite parking. Room very clean & tidy with essentials provided & great heating. Lots of spare blankets if needed & a large space to put luggage so it was not cluttering the room. Liked that there was a proper hairdryer provided. The bed was the most comfiest bed I have EVER slept in... I wanted to take it home! A great stay, would highly recommend

Just a suggestion, a toaster might be a nice addition to the room, so guests can make their own breakfast. Also some better tasting tea bags

It was very clean and spacious. It had all the facilities I needed and it was warm which is needed at this time of year in the South Island. There was a supply of tea, coffee and hot chocolate and I had access to extra blankets. The location was excellent, walking distance from the restaurants etc. in the town.

There’s nothing I could say I didn’t like about the property.

Location was great. Having a smart tv was fab as we could cast the rugby to the tv. Staff were lovely. Close to shops Electric blankets, which was a must in winter. The room was perfect size for two of us. And the bed was huge.

Would be good if carparks were allocated. Thicker duvets in winter would be nice, but that wont stop us coming back. We had a great stay.

It was comfortable and easy access to town and everything. It was all self check in so it was super easy. The bathroom had heated flooring and they had put the heater on for arrival as we went in winter. It felt so spacious and homely, we loved it

The only thing was we wish there was some green tea, and the bed was slightly firm but that’s personal preference.
