Stayed only one night on our way home from Queenstown as we love the Tekapo Pools, but wish we had stayed longer. Wonderful place. Lady on reception was warm and inviting, rooms very clean and modern. Very relaxing. Given a late checkout as it was mothers day which was great and meant we didn't need to rush. Lovely little area... More

The apartment we stayed in was modern and stylish. Most importantly it was warm! Very happy with it. Plenty of room with a big lounge/dining/kitchen. The adjoining garage was useful. Well suited for families and would stay again.

We stayed at the Mantra for a couple of nights in December. The setting is a little gated community of quality townhouses with a central swimming pool and spa. Our townhouse was very spacious and comfortable, and was well set up for a long stay (although a clothes horse would’ve been helpful). The outdoor entertaining space isn’t private and given... More

Awesome is basically all I can say!! We were in a 2 bedroom apartment overlooking the pool. It would have to be the best accommodation that I have stayed in with the spacious rooms and quality chattels.

I really recommend Mantra if you are planning to stay in lake tekapo. It's a house and not an ordinary motel/hotel. We stayed in a 2 BR unit that has everything including your private washing machine and soup!! The appliances were new and there were alot of decorations.
