Modern,clean comfortable
Excellent views, great location. Very clean and comfortable.
We were greeted with a lovely warm room on arrival. The views of the lake were awesome. We ate out where the host gave us some insight as to the best places in town. I appreciated that the host sent my phone charger back to me as i had left it behind. Highly recommend the accomodation
The fan turning on with movement in the bathroom. But not a big issue.
It was even nicer than presented on the photos. It was spotless, spacious, and great location. Adele is very welcoming and helpful yet she gave us privacy as well. It was such a pleasure to staying at Lake Vista.

The best bed in NZ so far!!! Adele is a delight, she had hot tips for great views, meals and hikes. I snuck in a couple of loads of washing whilst we were there too which was super convenient. The bedding in this unit was cosy and lovely - I didn't want to leave. The photos don't do this unit justice, the view was breathtaking. We had coffee, hot chocolate and fresh milk provided and all the amenities needed.
Adele made us feel incredibly welcomed, but I was concious about noise as she lives above. This was my issue though, just my anxiety and I would most certainly stay here again.
廚具維持的超好,提供多種香料跟油品,應該是我們在紐西蘭待18天廚具配備最佳的住宿,甚至還有電鍋~ 窗外就可以看到遠方的湖景,開車前往鎮上的超市也很方便 從鑰匙箱拿鑰匙很方便,主人還是有前來打招呼跟關心聊聊天,介紹周邊的景點,相當溫暖 床跟衛浴都很舒適,價格以兩個人而言有點小貴,但是非常值得!
宿主のホスピタリティの心、細部まで行き届いた設備、静かなロケーション、満天の星空など最高の宿泊施設でした。

Wasn’t what we were expecting it was better. The property was excellent would definitely book again without hesitation. View were great and we were minutes from everything.
That we didn’t stay long
Very clean and comfortable. The unit was well equiped . Nice view of lake tekapo.
The place is not in the center of the town, but the availability of parking in the center of the town is so good that it was not a major problem. K
所有厨房设备都非常齐全,度过了非常愉快的两天
Fantastic views, very clean and well maintained property. Cosy and beds were very comfortable

The view location The luxury of the rooms
Everything was perfect
Perfect lake view
ものすごく清潔で自宅で過ごしているように快適だった
食事がないところ。一番近い、ビレッジセンターにある飲食店は偽物の日本食やラーメン、めん類が、日本で食べる倍以上の価格で提供されており、、およそそこで食べる気にはならない。(実際には止むを得ず2500円の麺類一品を注文せざるを得なかった)
Adele and Chris are the loveliest hosts! Adele was so helpful and knowledgeable and gave us suggestions on what to do with our time and told us of a website where we could get discounts on activities. The accommodation was clean, new, spacious, with special touches and in a quiet location close to walking trails and with a view of the lake. There was a washing machine and new kitchen appliances. The beds were very comfortable! Thanks so much Adele and Chris! We had a lovely 3 nights!
Everything was perfect- no negatives!
The apartment was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. The view was fantastic of the lake and mountains. Check in was simple.
The queen bed was a little uncomfortable with hollows from the memory foam
Very comfortable, spacious and well appointed
房间干净,还可以看到湖景,很不错的入住体验。
Awesome views, spacious, quiet, very attentive host.
位置方便,还有小路通向山顶观星胜地,可惜天气不好没有星星🥲不过下雪了又是另一种风景~在温暖的有落地窗的房间里看风吹雪也很享受。房间各种设施齐全,可以自己做饭,提供茶和咖啡,洗漱一次性用品需要自己带一下,拖鞋也需要自带。房间整洁,房东很热情,很多沟通,也会提供很多有用的信息,比如哪里观星,哪里好吃,哪里查找必要的信息~下次来还想住这里!
Everything was absolutely amazing!!!! The host couple was absolutely lovely and helpful and cared about you having an amazing stay. A lot of documentation was provided in the room, fresh milk and the view was better than the pictures let show. We wished we would have stayed longer than one night.
Prima locatie voor overnachting. Heel hartelijk ontvangen door Adele.
Alles was ok.
一个完美的公寓,门口就是美丽的湖景,空间很大,有三张床,主人把公寓打扫得很干净,每个设施都很新很好,主人特别热情,友善,如果再来特卡波湖,我一定会再回来这里入住。
可惜我只住了一晚。
The place was beautiful. Everything is new, modern and functional. Everything was well thought of with great attention to detail. The view from the house was amazing. The host was lovely, helpful. They've accommodated our every request. Location was perfect, short drive from all the places we wanted to visit. Great place, highly recommended.
The only downside for us was that the bed was way too soft for our backs. Beautiful linen, probably new bed, just very soft. Might be good for people who like soft beds, just not for us. We didn't have a good sleep unfortunately.
Tout ! L’accueil d’Adèle, ses conseils promenades, sa gentillesse
All are excellent!!! 10 out of 10

The cottage is particularly cosy and full of eco-friendly elements.The owners have taken special care to decorate everything. Beau is really so smart and cute, waiting for us at the door, taking us to see the aurora borealis, unbelievable, fantastic memories, thank you so much!
Great beds, warm and lovely location.
Fantastic accommodation to base ourselves from for a few days. Very warm with everything you need to get by as a family. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and the hosts were friendly and helpful.
房东非常友好,亲自从巴士站接送我们。房间很新,空间大,并且温暖干净舒适,东西齐全,我们在这里洗了衣服,做了饭,看到了美丽的银河以及灿烂的日出,孩子们住的很开心。强烈推荐给其他游客!

Everything it is absolutely exceptional. Quality bed linen and bed. So many extras in the kitchen. Adele you are an inspiration.

The house is new and well-equipped, Adele is very nice and gave us an instruction about visiting the Lake Tekapo. The house is in front of a small hill and you can climb a little bit to have a stunning lake view.
Very clean.
Lack of small dining table and chairs inside the property and possibly it would benefit from roll down blinds allowing more privacy.
Really beautiful apartment on the lower level of the house in a newer housing division on the hill across from the lake. We were able to get some laundry done - no dryer, but a drying rack worked just fine. Lots of space to spread out and relax. Very well appointed with supplies, really nice large bathroom. Comfortable and clean. Lovely, friendly host met us in the afternoon to point out the walking track one lot over which would take us up to a scenic viewpoint to stargaze, or down to walk into town. We took a nice hike up there in the afternoon. Great launching spot for activities in the area.
Adele was very friendly. The room was large and well equipped. A beautiful and quiet neighbourhood, and it was easy to get to the town centre. (It was interesting to see the quite a few rabbits on the roads after dark.)
It was a beautiful apartment, well furnished and well equipped with kitchen equipment. The views of Lake Tekapo during the day and the night sky were stunning 😍. Adele met us on arrival and provided us with lots of useful information to help us get the most from our stay and was on hand whenever we needed help or advice. I would definitely recommend Lake Vista to anyone staying in the area.
All excellent,.
Nothing, everything was fantastic.
Spacious apartment with outstanding views. Adele was really lovely and gave us a warm welcome. An added bonus was witnessing the night skies. The property is very close to a track (Cowans Hill), which was perfect for stargazing - we saw the Milky Way.
Everything was great.
Upon arrival, the host welcomed us warmly, providing us with some helpful information. There are a living room, a kitchen and two bedrooms. All are stylish, neat, and pretty spacious for us, parents with a teenager. The Cowans Hill is just behind the house. We had a short walk and enjoyed the view during sunset and sunrise over there. The room rate we got was very competitive compared with other rooms in this area. It's not only the most cost effective but also the most comfortable room we stayed in our 9-day New Zealand trip.
A bit far from downtown. Not a problem for driving.
The accommodation was lovely. Modern, clean and comfortable, with love cosy touches and everything you could need. The views facing out from the apartment were lovely. The hosts met us on arrival and couldn't have been more welcoming.
Nothing, it was perfect
The location is beautiful with views of the lake at your doorstep. The apartment is like a home away from home. Very comfortable and everything you could want or need. Would highly recommend.
We only had one night there. Would have loved a few more.
Friendly host. Quiet location. No problem getting to the Town Center in a short drive. Clean place.
Nothing to complain about.
It was further from town than we thought it would be. You definitely needed a car.
We would have liked a small table and chairs indoors - we ate our main meal at an outside table but if the weather had been bad there was no indoor table and chairs. At our age we are not used to meals on lap top trays. Television was poor. Too technical.
Very clean and convenient. The bed was amazing. We loved our stay at Lake Vista. The location is perfect. Such a cute neighborhood with a beautiful view on the mountains.
Great quiet location

Extremely clean, excellent facilities, lovely view from the front and an extremely friendly host.
Only one tiny tiny little thing - the bathroom smelt a little strange - other than that I have absolutely not complaints
location is OK! Owner is pretty nice and friendly!

The beds were very comfortable and the shower gel, shampoo, etc. provided was very good. The place is also very clean and we love the electric bed warmers, as it was quite cold when we were there. The host is also very friendly and provided useful information about nearby places.
The only qualm about the place was the ventilator in the toilet which switches off after a while. As it turns on through motion detection, you literally have to keep moving around to keep the ventilator on.
The apartment was clean and well appointed with beautiful views of the lake. There was a great outdoor table and chairs.
There was a pervasive unpleasant odour of salmon that the previous guests had cooked. Despite having the doors and windows open until night time the smell was awful. The persistent odour affected our stay there. It would have been a great place to stay otherwise. We would have appreciated being contacted by the hosts before our arrival to let us know about the odour so we could have made alternative arrangements.
Our host was wonderful. The room was nice and spacious We had a great time
There was nothing to dislike. I have been in many units motels apartments and this apartment was the best by far.
Great facilities, really nice and very warm.
Nothing. Little bit expensive but not for Lake Tekapo
The best place to stay. Well appointed, warm, with amazing views. And lovely hosts.
Nothing. This is such a great place to stay
Great stay with family - clean, modern and very comfortable. Amazing view! Great location! Host very friendly and accommodating!
The host introduced themselves and gave a very comprehensive run down on eateries and entertainment. We loved that we could walk up the hill behind the property to take pictures and star gaze.
There was no dining table and chairs. The motion sensor fan in the bathroom was so annoying. The shower was a mist so not enjoyable at all.
Opening the front door in the morning to see Lake Tekapo and the snow capped mountains was just stunning.
There is nothing
Lovely host, beautiful new room with lovely lake views. Everything spotlessly clean, very comfortable beds, lovely linen. Everything supplied for a comfortable stay.
Our only slightly negative comment was that we couldn't get to sleep until 10.45pm due to people talking and walking around upstairs - not very well sound proofed to noise from the house above.
Comfy beds. Views were amazing. Very clean and tidy. Perfect get away. Thankyou
Exceptional location and views. Lovely hosts
Great accomodation was really comfortable, clean and tidy.Had everything we needed for one night stay . Hosts were lovely and gave us some tips for things to do.
Everything was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the hosts were exceptionally hospitable.
The dining table was outdoors, and it was too cold to dine outside in the morning and evening. Washing Machine was located outside the room. It was too far to walk to the town center.
