    the only thing they can improve is shampoo instead of soap in the shower.

    comfortable beds, very clean, kitchen has complete utensils etc, ,location is right infront of the lake and 5 min walk to town center.

    Neon signs on the property and next door block any chance to see the mountains or stars on a clear night. There are privacy curtains, however that keep the room very dark.

    Beautiful views. Quiet and spacious rooms. Kind staff and free parking.

    Nothing at all

    Where do I begin? My only regret is staying just 1 night. A absolutely stunning property amidst a beautiful town. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Te Anau, look no further. It is worth every cent. And not forgetting the incredibly hospitality from the staff. Rooms are spotless, bed is super comfy and bathroom has amazing water pressure!

    Another bathroom would have been a plus. Otherwise there were absolutely no complaints by any of us.

    The property was terrific. We could walk everywhere. Kerri is the best… very accommodating. We loved the area. Affords has the most beautiful landscape in town!

    Very minor issue: The bedroom was a bit tight, but on the other hand had good storage space.

    The location right at the lake was beautiful and peaceful, and walking to and from the town center along the lake was always nice and relaxing. Our apartment on the upper floor had an unobstructed view of the lake. We liked the spacious living room and small kitchen area. The bathroom was functional, but did not feel as luxurious as the rest of the unit. The laundry facility was excellent; very fast washer and dryer. Spacious parking.

    There is nothing we did not like! People might like to be aware, however, that there is no lift to first floor apartments. So suitcases would have to be carried upstairs.

    We loved our stay there! Our apartment gave us lovely unobstructed views of the lake. It was a short walk into the centre. The property itself was very comfortable and spacious and tastefully decorated. It was well set out with the lounge leading onto a balcony , a well equipped kitchen including a dishwasher . The bathroom was also spacious with plenty of towels. The bed was comfortable and there was a selection of pillows to meet individual needs. We were pleased about the guest laundry with a complementary use of the washing machine including washing powder. What made the stay even better was the kindness and helpfulness of the Manager Kerry! She never tired of our questions and pointed out some activities and booked them for us and she recommended cafes and restaurants. She even gave us some insect spray for sandflies that we may have encountered! We felt very cared for !
