    There are only darkening curtains, so during the day you either close them to have privacy or you don't close them to have nice day light and people can look inside.

    Well equipped kitchen, very comfortable bed, huge TV

    Nothing really that stands out.

    The studio is quite good, and the kitchen is well provided with the necessary things for cooking. We opted to have dinner and breakfast at the studio instead of dining out. Very clean and organised. Would definitely recommend anyone looking for accommodation in Lake Tekapo.

    Modern studio unit above town
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • One-Bedroom King Studio
    • Stayed 1 night

    While everything in the apartment was new, the quality of table, chairs, kitchen, bathroom appliances is not very high quality. I fear that it will not last very long. The apartment is in a newly build area above town. A short drive into town, not so convenient for walking.

    A very new, modern studio apartment with everything we needed. The check in via door code was super easy. We had to postpone our stay by 1 day and this was possible at no extra charge (thank you very much). The shower was great, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinner and make a nice breakfast. We had a view to the mountains (though past some cars and other houses). There is a huge TV in opposite the bed. It was quiet and comfortable. Would definitely book again.

    It was cold when we arrived and took a while for it to heat up- we went in winter time.

    clean, tidy and cosy with amenities. Located close to all local areas but also private- would definitely recommend!

    Good size Studio!

    It was a great king studio room for the night (It’s not a one-bedroom apartment as I initially thought based on the title—I assumed there would be a separate room. I think a King Studio would be a much better title). But overall the place is clean, has wall mounted good size TV and netflix, electric blanket which is great as really cold, good size wardrobe cupboard, good heatpump, and parking (being in 15-A) awesome access to room! suggestion maybe wall size mirror, small rice cooker if needed and flannel, not sure if there is one, but importantly perhaps a sensor light outside could be installed to illuminate the whole driveway/parking when someone arrives, at night, it was very dark when we arrived—I had to find my flashlight just to see where I was going. but will come back to the place.

    It was quite expensive for what it is, quite basic. As quite expensive I would have thought that beds would have electric blankets as it gets very cold in Tekapo. Because of the price I thought that there would be a better selection of tea and coffee, a coffee plunger and plunger coffee or a Nespresso maker is the usual in a unit this price and a biscuit is always a nice touch.

    Lovely unit, new and clean. Nice eco-store shower gel and shampoo in bathroom. Heat pump was turned on in the room when we arrived which was great as it was so cold and had been snowing. Easy keyless entry with a code.

    Just the smart tv, we cant cast our Netflix but over all excellent .

    Clean, modern and quite big. Each room has it’s own bathroom/toilet. Each room has heater too. Bed was comfy for our liking, my husband and I thought that their bed is better than our bed , so we’ll be changing our bed soon 🤣. Easy self check in and check out. Bigger than what I expected. We’ll be back again.
