Liked: Amenities
Quiet area and easy access to town centre and the lake. Friendly hosts. Nice spacious comfortable room and spotless clean. Parking outside the room and lots of off street parking.
Stayed at this property with family for 1 night on our way to Milford Sound. It is a good motel with all basic facilities and amenities. There is a small kitchenette as well which was very helpful. Overall, a nice experience.
Just one point: The heating in the room was through one air-con/heater only. This wasn't sufficient for the Autumn cold and the size of the room. There was no bed heating either. Hence, it was a bit cold in there!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Needed more bench space in kitchen, a second lounge chair & somewhere to hang tea towels in kitchen, no hand towels in bathroom.
Cute little motel. Family owned so they take of the place. Clean rooms and good parking. We were there for one night to go on a few boat tours and it worked out great.
Check in was smooth and quick. The room was spotless! Large room with a comfortable bed and extra amenities that you don’t expect from a small motel (make up remover, toiletries, fluffy towels, well equipped kitchenette). The couple that runs the place are friendly and very helpful. We stayed 2 nights while we visited the Milford Sound area and we would definitely stay there again.
The hosts were quick to respond to our needs and very helpful with directions and ideas. We liked the small motel. Much nicer choice than the bigger hotels that accommodated a different tour bus every night.
This is a VERY dated property. Needs some care, by far the lowest one we chose for our 2 week holiday. There are no screens even on the bathroom vent window, so there were bugs. It was not awful, but for the price I expected a better experience.
This is a beautifully kept traditional motel run by a friendly young couple providing access to the Fiordland National Park and beyond. The motel is minutes from Lake Te Anau and walking distance from the town itself which has a good range of shops, restaurants and cafes.
Our studio was well equipped with everything a couple needs to prepare simple meals in lieu of eating out and provided comfortable, clean and spacious living with free parking for the car.
