Mike and Pam were absolutely brilliant hosts: knowledgeable, attentive (without being intrusive). They gave us the feeling that nothing was too much trouble and were helpful, friendly and wonderful from start to finish. The hotel is right next to the Ferry Terminal (literally across the road if you’re going to Stewart Island, Rakiura), there’s a little Four Square Supermarket a couple of doors down for all the essentials and some great choices for dinner if you’re around in the evening. The beds were lovely and comfortable. Linen was immaculate and excellent quality and the hotel has some brilliant original Art Deco features and character, plus a bar and lounge to relax after an days adventuring!

unbelievable location right at the tip of Lands end. the view from our window with the sunrise was spectacular. great view for breakfast too. standards of cleanliness and comfort were exceptional. Andy and the rest of the staff were super friendly. Andy left a family meal to help us check in and book a table in neighbouring restaurant and chatted to us and made us feel welcome the next morning. 10/10

Our stay at this apartment was fantastic! The layout was well thought out, and the shared kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The variety of amenities like the gaming room and washroom with washing and drying machines added extra convenience. Plus, the highlight was definitely the professional pizza oven available for use during our stay! Beds were comfy, and the receptionists were incredibly helpful. The convenience of having parking just in front of the unit was a huge plus, making it easy to load and unload our belongings. It added to the overall ease and comfort of our stay.Would definitely book again.

My family and I really loved the hotel and the Family Suite. They did not wish to leave as we feeling so much at home. The location of your hotel is also one of your greatest assets as it is so picturesque and set in a breathtaking location. Te Anau being the gateaway for Milford Sound, Doubtful Sound, and Otago is also the icing on the cake. We have a tremendous and fun filled time. Thank you so much. We are looking to return in 2 years time.

Comfortable place, everything was nice and clean. We loved the unlimited shower (if you are a backpacker, this is all what you want and need :D). Kitchen and common area was small but comfy - we were there out of main season, so it was not crowded. We have been staying in our car so I cant say anything about the cottages :).

Everything was so beautiful and cozy! I really wish we could have stayed longer! The large space and many beds were more than enough for us. The heating system seemed weak and insufficient at first, but after a while, the whole room became very warm and cozy.

Te Anau is a quaint village on the lake with beautiful alpine scenery. Easy to get around by foot. It’s an ideal spot to relax before and/or after travelling to Milford Sound. The downside is that I didn’t stay long enough!

Invercargill sits at Latitude 46 Degrees South & is the closest CITY to Antartica. It's a large City that offers a multitude of things to do & places to see. There's the old Port Town of Bluff, it's Maritime Museum, cafes & of course the World Renown Bluff Oyster, but you have to be there when it's Oyster season & they are dredging the Foveaux Straits for the delicious seafood treat. Try May-August for this experience. Check out Transport World, it's the Disney Land for Vintage cars, trucks, buses, tractors you name it & it's there. Just like Disney Land it'll take you more than a day to see everything it has to offer, Tip:- DON'T RUSH. Ascot & Riverton Race courses are nearby for the lovers of The Sport Of Kings, with Riverton hosting The BIG EASTER CARNIVAL each year. Want to see a fast MOTOR BIKE then go & view the WORLD's FASTEST INDIAN in the City whilst mum does the shops & Mall over. One thing Invercargill has that many World Cities envy is FRESH CLEAN AIR, yes the breezes off the Southern Ocean sometimes may get a wee brisk, but those same breezes refresh & stimulate your senses. COME & TRY IT, you may just be surprised.

Tranquil town away from the touristy hubbub of Te Anau but within range to catch the tour to Milford Sound. The Church restaurant served excellent meals at a reasonable price. Probably best suited to tours to Doubtful Sounds, but we did not mind the 20 minute drive to Te Anau.

You don't need to spend money on tours if you don't have it (I never do), as there are plenty of beautiful walks to discover for yourself. Ulva Island is a must, though!!! The bird life is amazing, and even though at home we have plenty of kereru, piwakawaka, bellbirds, the song and sight of these guys over there is next level. Kereru, walking or sitting on the ground, is not seen in cities. Do take sandfly spray as these wee guys are also very friendly 😉

This is a warm, well-appointed and charming but unpretentious accommodation that suited our needs as 'passing-through" visitors. It was ideally placed in our swing through Southland and Central Otago to catch up with friends in various locations over this region. I should add that we booked here because we had few other options brought about by changes in itinerary that meant we were searching for somewhere suitable with only a day's advance notice! All in all, we were very happy with our choice. We cooked our own meals on perfectly adequate facilities.

Quiet little town between Queenstown and Milford Sound.

Quiet little town between Queenstown and Milford Sound. Room rates are very reasonable; and the attached resturant was very good. The lamb shank was excellent! Fun place to hang with the friendly locals. It is a good 3 hour drive to Milford Sound from here (not the 2:15 the GPS will say) so you need to leave extra time if you have a boat tour scheduled. Mossburn is a good place to gas up your car before leaving for Milford Sound or Queenstown. Our room had a large attached bathroom, and the shower had great water pressure. Secure parking located behind the building gave easy access to the rooms. Don't be afraid to go to Milford Sound if it's raining; the waterfalls are even more spectacular!

The obvious starting point for your Milford Sound experience., Te Anau has the look, feel & scenic beauty of a Canadian Great Lakes Town but all set in Southern New Zealand. Te Anau is surrounded in Alps & beautiful Blue Lakes making the scenery very easy to digest. There's everything you need here in the shape of accommodation, bars/Pubs, restaurants, shopping, supermarkets etc. Chill out for a few days of Te Anau tranquility before taking on the crowds & traffic nonsense of Milford Sound.
