Guests can relax and enjoy the views and surrounding lovely gardens. Fiordland Lakeview Motel and Apartments are 10 minutes’ walk from Te Anau Town Centre.

All apartments have a kitchenette and full size fridge/freezer. Each apartment has 24 cable channels on the TV. The deluxe studios opening in late 2019 at the property are adults-only and feature filtered water, a coffee machine, electric fire, sensor lighting, recliner chairs, a 55-inch TV with Chromecast and stunning lake views. The absolutely best motel during my trip in South Island. They have very large rooms and the facilities are well equipped and fantastic lake view.

Set in Gore, The Reservation B&B offers 4-star accommodation with a garden and a shared lounge. This property offers access to a patio and free private parking. The bed and breakfast also offers facilities for disabled guests. We were welcomed by the owners on arrival who were so friendly and very welcoming. We had a beautiful en-suite room with doors out to a little patio area overlooking the beautiful garden and gorgeous views beyond - such a great setting! Tea and coffee was available in the shared kitchen/sitting room and there was fresh milk in the fridge. Breakfast was in the pavilion, self service cereals and toast and fab coffee! A very comfy bed too it was a great night’s stay!

Set in beautiful garden surroundings, this B&B is only 100 metres from the shores of Lake Te Anau. Each room includes cable TV, electric blankets and tea/coffee making facilities. Free Wi-Fi is available. We were the only guests for two nights as the area got battered by one-in-a-century storm that we were not aware of. When we arrived, the whole town didn't have electricity but that didn't dampen our spirits. The owners provided extra blankets and I had the best sleep in months. The owners gave us recommendation on what to do on a spare day that we were supposed to spend cruising Doubtful Sound (cancelled due to the storm) and helped us a lot fixing the car. We'll book again for our next stay.
