Property did not meet vision as shown on website. Basically a donga hut split into 3 rooms. Had to get manager (off site) to come and program TV. No iron or ironing board. In the middle of "no where".

Beautiful room, but no view
We were very impressed with the room and how nice it was but can't help but feel misled by the pictures in the original post. There are a lot of new developments in the area so the pictures shown on the listing are not the view you will get. I'm not sure if any of the rooms have that view. We booked this place solely on hoping for some mountain views, but instead we were looking at another unit. Also went out to look at the stars but all of the motion lights kept turning on so we had to walk quite a ways away from the property. Again this place could sell itself on how nice it is and we would stay again but I hope they can update the photos so no one else is surprised. Thanks for a great stay anyway.

This is a busy location with people arriving at all hours - the units themselves are efficient however there seems to be minimal sound proofing from people going about there activities - People smoking outside was so intense they mights as well have been in our room The use of lights outside during the night by the accomodation was frustrating when we had come to enjoy the night sky - perhaps with some vegetations established over time this may reduce it While the unit has all you need there needs to be some attention by the cleaning crew - pots need screws tightened on handles and the the shower trim inside and grout on tiles in shower were pourly managed by the cleaners the orange mould could be rubbed off with toilet paper and this whole base of the shower and panels were needing some attention - the wet floor drain also emits an odor. When you are in a small space it’s hard to get away from.

This incredible lodge blew our expectations. It was warm, comfortable, clean, new, well-appointed, and in a fantastic neighborhood. Checking in was a breeze (just key in a code) and the owners/managers were very responsive. It was a 1-minute drive to a strip of restaurants, shops, a grocery store, and Tekapo Springs Hot Pools. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat and definitely stay here again.

The property was clean and had basic amenities. However, it is on the smaller side making it not as comfortable as other accommodations. The location is okay, but a car is needed to access the area.

Lovely wee gem in Tekapo
Even though it was a brief overnight stay with an early start in the morning I was very impressed with the property. There was just one wee housekeeping issue of finding a few hairs but apart from that the property is clean & the room was comfortable. Excellent location & quiet. Will use again as I often stop over in Tekapo. Thank you
