Home from home

A wonderful place to stay. Situated in a quiet part of the town Nathan and Liz are very welcoming. Breakfast is included , rooms are clean and comfortable, and guests can use the kitchen. Ideally located for a day out to milford sound, enjoy water sports or organised tours fro Teanau.

Check-in was good. Room was very small, which was not a problem. It was very clean, but poorly equipped. The room was for two people, but there was only one chair. There is no air conditioning, and portable fans are not available. Wi-Fi was fantastic!

Good location but the continental breakfast needs upgrading

Te Anau is the gateway to trips going up to Milford Sound so this is why we stayed here. Good location and only a 10 minute walk down to the large lake and then a wander into town. The bed room part was pretty cramped but the compact shower room worked well and the shower was good. We were disappointed with the included continental breakfast. Definitely a budget version and not brilliant quality. We booked on Booking.Com and the room description wasn't quite accurate. The room did not have a tumble dryer or a fridge. There was however a good sized communal sharing fridge in the lobby area. If you needed any laundry doing then there was a $10 NZ charge per load.

The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We had just finished the Milford Track and it was the perfect place to spend the night! Very clean, dry, and overall just lovely.

Go somewhere else…

Here are the few reasons why I strongly suggested you find another option. It feels like it was a old motel being renovated. The indoor living room was very cold in april and furniture quit outdated. The bathroom is extremely small, can barley move and extremely cold, no heating. The windows? I had a small one with natural light and a bigger one facing the indoor living room so no natural light at all. The walls are paper thin, i heard everything that was going on in the bedroom next time. As for their “rules kitchen “ be aware to read them if u go there. My bad: i did not. The kitchen can only be used by guests from 11am til 8pm. That’s it. I wasn’t aware tho that when it’s breakfast time which is 7am til 8h30am, even if the kitchen is open, you are NOT allowed to make yourself something you would like to eat either eggs or anything. You eat whatever is there which isn’t much: canned fruits, i didn’t see anything fresh, bread, a muffin cake style and cereal and yogurt. I learned it the hard way by misunderstanding this aspect of breakfast and not computerizing in my brain that breakfast ends at 8h30 and i showed up at 8h10-15 and asking to the old lady doing the dishes if i could get 2 slices of bread as it was 8h35 so i was apparently 5 minutes late. I will pass on how rude this old lady was towards me, enough that i asked for a refund for the 2 nights i had left there and i left. There is a way to interact with guests that travel across the world to come visit NZ like i did. Of course as a solo female traveller i stood up for myself and defended myself. I no longer felt safe and at peace so i left. I had never seen anywhere in the world breakfast time for 1h30 with no flexibility when you are dealing with travellers. So definitely i recommend my felllow travellers to look for a better option…

This client booked thru air bnb and as result had to be blocked and reported to them. Her review was removed by them as it breached there condions after lying to both airbnb and ourselves. Online bulling is not ok and Airbnb fully supported us during the process as hosts. We do wish this person all the best for there recovery and hope they get the help needed, rather telling lies. and not following house rules even thou they were shown them and being confrontational toward staff who were just doing there job.
