Honestly, i love the place. Its a revamp of old shepherding stations and i love how the current owners did up the place. Its very modern and cozy. Strong wifi actually. We visited in June, beginning of winter. The cabins: 1. We had our own cabins. Loved how the owners turned up the warmers in the cabin so the place was nice and toasty. The 2 twin beds, loved that they each had their own electric beddings.. 2. The cabin we had, had a tv and 2 armchairs. We enjoyed every episode of the nanny reruns we've watched there. Lol. 3. Cozy place. Very homey. We loved it. The Kitchen and Bathroom!: 1. This is in a separate cabin.. 2. Because we were the only guests during that period, it felt like we had the whole space to ourselves which was awesome. (But there's only 2 residence cabins so it shouldnt be a squeeze either.. not too sure if the other cabins on the estate uses the same space).. 3. The kitchen's very well equipped! It even has a portable grilling machine. Loved it. The usual drills of washing and cleaning up after yourself. #lovethat 4. The bathroom, now thats the VIP. Huge space, it had a wet and dry 'corner'.. big space to bathe, good supply of hot water.. electric heaters and clothes warmers. Very thoughtful of the owners. 5. We made sure to turn off every light and heating to conserve energy every night. The main morale of every bnb story is to take care of the place like u would your own home. The space: 1. The 2 to 3 nights we were there, super cloudy else it would have been an excellent place to view the southern lights cuz the cabins faces south. 2. U can star-gaze above as well.. i had a good 1 - 2 hrs of clear skies. Lol. 3. The owners stay nearby. Very friendly people! They have 3 dogs, very friendly as well. 4. The carpark is just below. Very close by, very convenient. 5. Huge space to walk around... we had a good walk to see the pet deers and sheeps. :) love it.

We had a wonderful stay at Mackenzie Suites in Tekapo — it was by far the best accommodation we experienced during our South Island trip. The private garage on the ground floor was such a thoughtful touch, especially during heavy snow. We were amazed to find our own name displayed above the garage — what a warm welcome! The host even waited for us at the door in the snow and kindly helped reverse the car into the garage to ensure our safety. Upstairs, the suite was spacious, modern, and filled with natural light. The panoramic lake and snow views from the three-sided floor-to-ceiling windows were absolutely breathtaking — we could have spent the whole day just soaking it in. The kitchen was fully equipped, the washing and drying facilities were excellent, and we even found a dedicated iPad with curated local recommendations for food and activities in Tekapo. One of the best surprises: a 12:00 noon checkout — the only one out of the 12 hotels we stayed in across the South Island. That extra time made such a difference and truly shows the thoughtfulness behind every detail. Highly recommended.

    My family stayed in a two-bedroom apartment at this motel for one night. The apartment was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Yvonne provided exceptional service by going the extra mile to contact me about a lost towel when she couldn’t reach me by phone. Highly recommend this motel for its excellent accommodations and customer service.

    Every aspect of our stay was wonderful. We couldn't have asked for better accommodation. For two couples travelling together on a touring holiday it was the perfect place to stay. In fact the best accommodation we had for our entire two week holiday in the South Island of NZ

    It is very clean, well equipped and thoughtfully decorated. Everything is so homey. The accessible bathroom is a bonus for our elderly family members. The host is also very kind and responsive, sending us reminder and everything we need to know. Among the eight different accommodations (motels, serviced apartment, hotels etc.) I stayed during my 2-week New Zealand trip, this place is on the top two :) Highly recommended!

    very new, clean and comfortable apartment with beautiful lake and mountains view. stargazing right outside the apartment. Best of all the accommodations we had stayed in our two weeks tours in NZ. The manager/owner who manages this property is very helpful and friendly. Strongly recommend this property and hope everyone going to stay will keep this apartment clean and new for others to enjoy as well.
