    Everything. Great hosts, great location, the country feel right in the centre of Tekapo was awesome. Loved feeding the animal’s especially because our Aussie friends had never seen a sheep let alone fed one. Cottage was gorgeous. Such a lovely vibe after staying in new city apartments that are all the same.

    The beds were super comfortable and private with curtains, light and a plug. There was a button to switch the heating on if needed and plenty of locker space. The views from the kitchen/lounge were breathtaking. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped. It’s a lovely hostel and I wish I’d stayed longer.

    This was our favourite place to stay during our 4 week stay in NZ. Beautiful Apartment with sensational views of the lake and mountains. Extremely large bed! Very well-equipped and you can see the thought that has gone in to make it a home from home stay. Great location easy walk into village.
