Te Anau Lodge

“Quirky little place great location a must stay”

Everything Kim and Fiona are lovely. This place is very quirky we loved it. Good breakfast as well. Nothing

We enjoyed our 2 night stay at Te Anau lodge. We arrived afrer driving through a bit of a snow storm, but we made it ok. Kym was great she met us at the door and helped book us on a bus to Milford Sound for the next morning. We got a tour of this interesting historic building where you feel like you are back in time. It was a comfotable stay and kym fed us a good breakfast each morning. Highly recommended if you like something a bit different from a standard motel

“Quirky, fun place to stay. The garden was full of alternative decorations that were fun to explore.”

It was a quirky place. We were upgraded to the homestead which was furnished from the fifties to the eighties. Very eclectic with a vcr and old nostalgic appliances. Well heated. The main building kept its convent charm. It was a great stay

This was one of our favorite places to stay during our trip. Kym was so welcoming and made us feel at home right away. She advised us to see the Fiordland movie to introduce us to the area and made reservations for dinner for us afterward. The breakfast, held in the former chapel, was exceptional with continental options as well as eggs, sausage and hash browns. Having larger tables allowed us to the opportunity to get to know other guests. Each room has its own name and character. We stayed in the music room, and it was lovely. Upstairs is a beautiful wood-paneled library that you can hang out in with wine, beer, sodas, hot water, and sweet treats to enjoy. You can play backgammon or chess, read a book, hang out with our guests, or read a book. The property has a lot of decorations dispersed throughout the garden including a life size chess board, a carousel, an old piano, a big swing, and a train car (one of the rooms they offer to stay in). There was also a place to do laundry - a godsend after having already traveled for two weeks. The only downside was our mattress was not that comfortable, but everything else at the lodge made up for it. We would definitely visit again if we ever have the fortune to come back to New Zealand

“Comfortable.”

Comfortable. Thoughtful inclusions. Lovely and helpful host Kim. Good hot breakfast included. A bit of a walk from town centre though not too far. We did not have a car
