Clean but outdated and far too expensive for what it is. I would not book again unless I had no other choice.

It’s funny reading the reviews on here. The place is 2.5 star type place. Basic. Depending on room you get. I stayed in room 404. Two single beds with small bathroom etc. I stayed in summer which seems to be peak season. One thing to be mindful is the whole property faces east or west, so afternoon the sun shines in window s and makes it quite hot but cools down later by 10pm so ok for sleeping. Great view and quiet place. Something different to staying in more popular Te Anau. Good location to drive to various walks in Fiordland national park. It’s 17 min from Te Anau - not many shops around. Just the one bar place ( the church) to get food. But it’s quiet and view is amazing. But I liked it overall

This motel looks unloved. The young staff member was pleasant and the view is incredible but they are the only redeeming features. Extremely basic motel. The laundry did not work and the bed was terrible. We were supplied with a torn towel. As this was an expensive motel there was no value for money.

The entire property was staffed by one very nice young man but he was obviouslyoverwhelmed. When we first arrived, we were the only guests. The whole place is creepy. The restaurant is not open, the bar is not open. The laundry is inoperable. The rooms are small and poorly maintained. The yards are not maintained. The buildings aren't maintained.

We spent 2 nights there and we found it to be neat and tidy. Great views of the lake and mountains. Not a great deal in the area you have to go into Te Anau for all yoir needs.

Accomodation was dated though very clean and adequate for our stay - it had a 70’s vibe though we had a great time with a sunning view. Very functional accommodation

Well.....this is why you should take a moment to read the reviews before you book.
There must have been 30 units and we were the only ones there for 2 nights! When we arrived, there was no-one there. We went for a drive and rang until someone answered their phone so we could get a key. The room wasn't sparkling clean - the carpet had not been vacuumed. We went and bought disposable plates and cutlery as there was only cups. The bed was comfortable and the view......incredible.
