The window on the ceiling is wonderful. You can see the stars from the bed. It is very close to Lake Tekapo. Fantastic Lake view. The staff are friendly and helped us transport our luggage to our room. It provided disposable toothbrushes and slippers.

This exceeded our expectations in most regards. The location was isolated, but still within easy drive of facilities. The little cottage had everything we needed with lovely touches by the hosts such as a lovely gift basket on arrival, a large selection of coffee and teas, lovely array of food for the continental breakfast, indoor and outdoor footwear, bath salts, linen and towels. Best part - the outdoor bath with a view of the dark sky reserve. What a spectacular, quiet, warm, beautiful place!

What we liked • Extraordinary setting — you truly melt into nature. From the lodge, the horizon reveals only natural elements: no visible roads, buildings, or man-made distractions. The positioning overlooking the wide valley and mountains is exceptional. • Warm, elevated welcome — enjoying a glass of Ruinart Champagne on arrival (if you wish) immediately sets the tone. • Excellent cocktails — inventive, interesting, and thoughtfully crafted, well beyond standard offerings. • Outstanding service — genuinely top-notch across the board. Special shout-outs to Paulina, Margot (ask her about the wine—she’s wonderful), Marcus, and the entire team. The leadership clearly shows in how consistently excellent everyone is. • Food, sourcing & dietary care — the mostly French chef team created delicious meals and handled dietary needs with real care and confidence. If you enjoy fish, it’s especially worth noting that their fish is line-caught or speared only. If you’re choosing to stay somewhere like this, you likely care about the environment—and this is a meaningful plus. Most ocean plastics and animal entanglements come from large commercial fishing nets and gear, so this thoughtful sourcing really matters. • Rooms — large, beautifully appointed, quiet, and deeply comfortable. A true retreat after taking in the landscape.

Location is right in the middle of the town and only meters from restaurants. Parking is right at your door. We had room 12 which was warm and the bathroom was very large and would be suitable for anyone who need accessible facilities. There was a view from the front landing of the mountains and the lake but it was through buildings. The bed was comfortable, and the room was large. Breakfast at Doughboy Cafe was included and was a full hot breakfast which was great. The staff at the accommodation were friendly and helpful.

The check-in experience was super easy. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. The views from our room were absolutely insane. Then at night we went out at 11:00 p.m. and we could clearly see the Milky Way along with several constellations and major stars. I've never seen so many stars with the naked eye before. The room was very comfortable and I wish I could have taken the bed home with me because it was that comfortable.

Relaxing Chinese place.

Relaxing Chinese place. Nice walking path by the lake and up the hill. Great views. Expensive shops. Nice drive by the lake (if the farm gates are open) - over 40km to the river crossing, with great views. "Dark sky" - not very dark thanks to shops, eateries, etc.

Great amenities for a couple of days hiking or just gawping at the incredible scenery. Short family walks, half day and full day walks, challenging alpine walks and huts(book before you come). Walk early to get quiet tracks- the Hooker Valley walk is gorgeous but busy all year round so set off just before sunrise for the best experience. Walk the quieter tracks in the afternoon. Bring what provisions you need, although there are 3 or 4 places during the day & a couple of pricey but good evening options if you don't, but no shops. Tons of lunch options at the Hermitage cafe, and a great small cafe just below the visitor centre. The buffet dinner at the Hermitage is well worth the cost, enough veggie and vegan choices too. Give yourself an hour in the visitor centre, some great displays on the history of the area and the old timers that climbed themselves, and led expeditions, and tourists. Excellent people at everywhere we visited, helpful and friendly. Fabulous, i come at least once a year and twice if i can. Enjoy

We were in Twizel for 4 nights in the middle of a cold winter. We were on our way from Queenstown to Akaroa. We spent one day going to Aoraki and walking near the mountains. This was about a 50min drive away. We had an amazing day there. The other days we wandered around Twizel doing some walks and learning about the history of the town. There are great independent shops and restaurants in Twizel and everyone we spoke to was were so friendly and helpful, we felt really at home. We loved the fact that it was so easy to walk everywhere.

Fairlie is a lovely village with helpful and friendly locals. The Fairlie Bakery makes yummy pies and apple turnovers. The local 4 Square supermarket has all your needs, and the staff were so very nice. We had many beers at the Top Pub, and the locals didn't seem to mind our large extended family commandeering the back table and the pool table; lovely Ness the publican, even gave the younger family members some hints on holding the pool que. A walk to the river and ice-skating rink will reveal some revegetation underway. Once the rain cleared the view of the snow-capped mountains was spectacular!

There is the "House" and the "Cottage". We stayed at the little cottage and it was perfect. Nice, quiet place next to the lake and the view was just unbelievable. We ate at the High Country Salmon at Twizel nearby. The salmon sashimi was really fresh. Love meeting the very friendly dog "Hari". Hiking the Hooker Valley Trail at Mt Cook was the highlight, though the trail was close for repair after the first bridge on that day. The scenery was again simply breath taking. A visit to The Hermitage Hotel next to Mt Cook was really nice for some snack and coffee.

Stunning lake views, easy to spend hours just admiring the view. Very fortunate to have visited on a clear sunny day. Mackenzies Bar and Grill was a great place to dine - friendly staff and service was super quick with a tasty menu. Make sure you book in for star gazing, a very memorable experience! If you a book lover be sure to pop into Petronella's Bookstore.
