The house was nice and clean. It also near all the restaurant in Lake Tekepo, only around 5-10 mins walk.
The bed is not king size bed, its just 2 single bed thay got combined.
Location and view
No dryer to dry clothes. No kindling to start fire.
The pathway to house was half covered by thorny branches very tricky at night dangerous Also cover on bed was not warm enough I was cold all night
The view; nice decor, furnishings and well-appointed; good communication; easy walk downtown.
Only minor, but no matches were provided, and we didn't know how to get the TV going - perhaps include a "How To" in the folder?
The view of Lake Tekapo and surroundings.
Nothing.
It had a beautiful view, great facilities and was very cosy & comfortable.
The shower sprayed water outside of the shower cubicle. Not a big deal but a minor inconvenience.
Nice, clean and quite
No breakfast
We couldn’t find any matches or a lighter to light the fire
Nice view overlooking the mountain, walking distance to the lake (~10mins), has cosy fireplace and washing machine
Washing machine needs to be deep-cleaned (detergents were piled up). Would be nice to have outdoor furniture in the balcony. It also didn’t have basic cooking spices like olive oil and salt. Nespresso machine was there but no capsules provided.
Clean, Comfortable, easy access to town and private.
The location was great with a lovely view of the lake.
It needs some TLC, with marks on the walls as you can tell it’s a well used property.
It was walking distance to town even in the very cold weather. Lovely views.
There were a number of light bulbs not working, the rubbish bins outside were overflowing & the concrete floor was really cold. When we arrived the only thing working was the air conditioning unit. We didn’t realise the fridge was turned off, luckily we weren’t staying long & could use the ice outside. There was no kindling so we couldn’t light the fire. The underfloor heating only worked in the back end of the house & only became evident late in the evening. We felt this was very expensive accommodation on the basis of so many things not working.
The property was much bigger and nicer than the pictures and the view of the lake was beautiful. The host was so accommodating and very prompt in responding. Will absolutely be recommending to friends and family who are travelling to lake tekapo.
The host may want to consider installing a door in the shower as some water escapes the shower area into the bathroom.
Lovely place, great kitchen, good location, sunrise was really nice
The property is welcoming and warm. The view is phenomenal.
I wish there was a clothes dryer! Maybe a few more amenities would be good!
The view and the cleanliness of the home.
The stairs and the slippery flooring in the shower.
Great location, clean, warm with all the facilities for your needs.
Amazing location and quiet and Mary Hut is beautiful with everything you need.
We loved the uniqueness.
The furniture isn’t super comfortable and a metal table is very loud, but it was all clean and fun.
We loved the location and view. The kitchen was well equipped and large bathroom. Very comfortable bed.
Couldn’t get the tv to work and no instructions. Light bulbs missing in lamps.
Location, and the log burner at the property
The beds were uncomfortable. Check in not available at agreed time, over an hour late being able to access the property. Cleaning looked rushed as some surfaces still had grease on them from previous occupancy.
Great location. Plus the host was super friendly and responsive. Even came out to greet us upon our arrival.
숙소의 위치는 너무 훌륭합니다. 내부는 깔끔하고 청결이 우수합니다. 호스트의 답변도 매우 빠르고 친절합니다.
와이파이 속도가 조금 느립니다.

Location is great.
Lots of light bulbs not working. Wifi not working most of the time. Needs a good clean.
Amazing and convenient location with beautiful views. Nice design and layout, comfortable bed and loo separate from bathroom with extra basin helpful, as was washing machine
Needs some love and attention to detail. This is not a budget stay at c.650Nz dollars a night. Glad we only had 2 nights here from the facilities point of view. Other much cheaper places on our 30 day trip have been SO much better! Outside there are breathtaking views of Lake Tekapo and Mt Cook, but no seating or tables on the deck to eat at or have a drink, and if eating inside the hedge is too high to see the Lake... what a waste! The ugly concrete table and benches is at the back near the bins....and there were two young and old piles of dog poo left on the longer cut lawn grass. Inside there is an eclectic mix of furniture that is worn in places and some light bulbs missing or not working. The kitchen area is spacious and well laid out but budget appliances and lack of crockery, glasses and sharp knives is unforgivable at this price. There were 3 dinner plates and only two mismatched wine glasses for example. The cooker rings took forever to heat up; the dishwasher soap tablet holder was broken. No basics like salt and pepper.
Mary Hut was absolutely beautiful! We enjoyed our stay so much! Such a beautiful place in such a beautiful location. We would come back in a heartbeat!
It should have a smart TV. That was disappointing as there is little to do in the evenings
The location was great, very-very close to center and look at the lake (if you stand up). The kitchen was ok, the bedroom had heating, and the washing machine worked fine. There is car park in front of the property, lockbox was convenient. This place is good because its location but not because of the property.
There was no light outside and it was hard to get in to property at late hours (when we went back from dark sky project). There’s not much they offer comparing to other accomodations: only one bottle of showergel & samphoo (not separate products), only instant coffee which was very bad (other places have coffee machine), no heating in the living room (only fireplace), no furniture outside (!) which we missed very much since the place should use the outside space in this location, shower was terrible (no curtain or door and the water was all around the bathroom that we needed to clean up after every shower). This place is a bit overpriced compared what we got.
The space has a lovely layout and easy to access. Check-in was very straight forward.
It was hard to get fresh air inside as windows are requested not to be open when lights are on.
A great space with beautiful views, nice comfy bed and couches and even heated floors!
Some shower gel and shampoo/conditioner up high in the shower would be great.
The location was good, the view was excellent. The little house was spacious, very cosy and comfortable. Everything we needed for a short stay. Definitely recommend.
Could have a few more wine glasses and things to cook with but we actually made to with what was available.
The location and design is amazing
The doorlock is not functioning and toilet seat is sticky
Location and property was well equipped
Stunning view and well equipped
The signature Mary Hut can’t see at night.
Nice view, floor heating
The shower not working properly Bedroom has no door
Great location and very spacious
Only a few little things - light bulbs hadn’t been changed (we noticed this had been mentioned months before), no coffee pods for the machine, fire place not cleaned. Just didn’t feel that welcoming.
Comfortable for a short stay. Nice view from the lounge.
Property was clean but the attention to detail with the cleaning wasn’t great. Open packets of sugar, inside the coffee container was spilt coffee. There was a coffee machine but no coffee pods for it, and nothing to tell you prior to arriving what sort of coffee would be suitable. The guest book needs replacing. The bushes along the front stairs needed trimming as very sharp and they protrude over the stairs when we were there.
Purpose designed for accommodation. Clean and well appointed. Private but still with a view of the lake.
A few light bulbs didn't go which was annoying for a knitter. Other than that, a great spot.
Loved the location and the building design and clean lines and separation Of kitchen, living area, bedroom and bathroom. Comfortable couches.
There was no outdoor furniture and we had 3 nights and good weather so would have been nice to be able to chill out on the deck. Some nice wine glasses would have been good and may be a couple of extra large plates as we ate in a bit. Chairs of dining table very hard but ok with a cushion.
Stunning location, modern facilities
The view
It was a little lacking on kitchen equipment and there were a few lights that weren’t working. A night light for the bathroom would have been nice. And some outdoor deck chairs would have also been nice also. No place to sit and admire the view
Conveniently located, nice and roomy and a great wood burner.
Price way too high for experience delivered. Ran out of hot water in the morning mid shower. Lake view is pretty obscured by house in front and hedge (I’m 6ft 2!).
Beautifully furnished house in a quiet location. The lake and mountain views are fantastic. We felt very comfortable. Perfect for a longer stay in Lake Tekapo. Centre within easy walking distance.
We only missed seating furniture for the front terrace.
Fantastic views of the lake and mountains from living areas. Quiet location and all the mod cons needed for our stay. Highly recommend.
great location well equipped
cobwebs on ceiling and around chimney
Great location. Well equipped
Paintwork a little tired
Great location. Beautifully appointed. Lovely & clean. Gorgeous decorating.
It would have been great to have an operating Manuel for the tv & the cooktop.
clean, comfy, had enough supplies of toiletries etc for laundry. Big enough. Quiet.
Had to message the app to get to the staff to ask for fire starter and wood for fireplace. The lockbox was very stiff, broke my nail trying to retrieve the key. Stayed before but now the view is partially blocked by the lodge in front.
Fire place! It was awesome for asian people like us. The magnificent view of lake tekapo. Perfect stargazing from here. Cooking facilities was superb.
Nothing
Loved everything about this property, super clean spacious and a perfect weekend get away!
Nothing, everything was exceptional.
Good location and view was just amazing, the mountain and the lake! Highly recommended😍
Priceless view, beautiful layout, spacious kitchen, comfortable beds, well equipped with everything we need, toilet separated from the bathroom, and we simply love the real fireplace! It kept the entire place warm even though it was snowing outside.
We had an amazing time at this lovely home but some of the fittings need simple maintenance - side door lock loose, all doors need oiling, kitchen drawer handle loose, bathroom tap loose, bedroom light bulb & one of the porch light need to be replaced. My husband is a handyman and tried to tighten what he can but unable to replace the bulbs.
Tiles in the shower are extremely slippery when wet! Very dangerous even after I warned my partner. No extra towel to take to Tekapo spring thermal pools. Did a load of washing which came out with lint all over it then realised there is no dryer. Lots of instructions on what items go in which bin but no instruction on where the bins are. No doona cover on the bed. In winter feels like this is a must unless there is a huge blanket. Pillows could be replaced. Coffee pod machine provide but no coffee pods, not asking for an abundance of them but one per person per day seems reasonable.
Cozy place to stay
cold floor, floor heating or carpet would be nice
There was no firewood for the wood fire so I rang Jess and she was around within 20 minutes with some for that night and returned the next day with another armful for our second night. Thanks, it was miserable weather and having the fire was just delightful.
Amazing place with spectacular views.
Beautiful view of Lake Tekapo from the living room and the deck. Large kitchen and spacious layout.
Slightly cold even with the heater on in the bedroom and bathroom
Awesome view Cosy & comfortable
N/A
Great view, decent kitchen, able to cook a proper meal on the electric stove. The full kitchen means you’re not at the mercy of restaurant serving 20+ nzd udon or ramen, although I do recommend eating out for a good meal. Do try cooking monk fish fillet from 4squares; I grilled on the stove and roasted it in the oven
For whatever reason, owner decided not to have a trash bin for normal refuse (red top), so had to bring the trash to town for disposal. Gets rather cold at night in autumn, but then again I’m not used to the cold
Location really good. WiFi didn’t work, but the host was very friendly and responsive and fixed it quickly. The pot belly stove was great, very cozy.
Everything!
Comfortable clean and great amenities The washing machine was an unexpected find. Good view over the lake to the mountains. Short walk into town where there are loads of restaurants
Everything. Views. Decor. Cleanliness.
Could do with a new frying pan, that is my only negative.
The size was perfect for a couple
Location - away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist town
Gorgeous place, lovely view, nicely furnished. Very peaceful.
I have a fragrance sensitivity and the leather couch created a strong leather smell in the living area that bothered my airways. Probably wouldn’t be a problem for anyone else.
Location, view, fully equipped
Fly screens would be great to allow for fresh air, to save using the a/c on hot days.
