We stayed here one night on the way to Milford Sound from Dunedin... and what a pretty place this is!!! lakefront, beautiful sunshine and close to the shops. we got a 2 bedroom villa which is not on the lake but is very nice indeed. has a microwave and free movies and a very nice appeal to it. the only...

the quality of hotels and restaurants in te anau are generally very VERY average if not below. for that prices are extremely high. once i entered this villa park it felt like a deserted movie set from the 70s. the villas are very out of date, very close together and the windows face in all direction with only blinds to...

We stayed here two nights as a base for Milford Sound and Queenstown holiday. We were impressed by the lake views and size of room but we were very angry with frontline service from one staff member in particular. Maybe some training in how to speak to customers when checking in might help. Bad attitude was given when a question... More

Everything you could hope for in accommodation except atmosphere. Cannot fault this place. It is just not our demographic. Agree with other reviewers comments on the retirement village feel. Also agree on the grotty spa The rooms are big, beds are really comfy and the gardens are lovely.

Having read the reviews good and bad for this complex we were pleasantly surprised and also bemused at the negative feedback. We had an upstairs room overlooking the lake with a kingsize bed that must have been XXL! Staff were friendly and helpful, wi fi in the bar was great, room was fresh and clean One surprise was the lack... More

The villa was a good size, had a nice layout, good bathroom, everything was clean and it was an easy walk to town. Staff were always helpful and the free wifi in the lobby/bar... More

The resort of Te Anau is on the way to the beautiful Milford Sound area and this hotel makes a lovely stop on the way. There are lake view rooms and rooms which face on to the gardens and swimming pool. We were in the later and didn't miss having a lake view as our rooms had access to the... More

When I had to choose between Distinction Luxmore and Distinction Hotel and Villas, I thought I'd pay a little extra and stay at the lake front hotel. I made the right decision. Even though I only stayed at the room with Garden View, it was still magnificent. The room was modern, beautiful, clean, and opens up to the garden. It's... More

We used the restaurt only, as we had another hotel in the vicinity. We all found the food excellent with a wide choice, and exellent quality. 40NZ$ per head (£22) for all you could eat was in my view good value. The service was good, and the seat by the window gave us an excellent view. Our group had a... More
