We stayed for 2 nights in a 2 storey villa. Bedroom, bathroom downstairs and living room, dining area and kitchen upstairs. Lovely bathroom with big bath, washing maching and dryer under the stairs. Well equiped kitchen. Balcony off the living room. We had breakfast included in our rate. This was in the restaurant-continental or hot selection. No problems getting a... More

As there were six of us traveling together, we decided to book a night’s stay in a unit consisting of a master suite and two bedrooms at the Peppers Bluewater Resort, Lake Tikapo. The Resort is easy to locate as it is by the main road, opposite the Lake. It is very near Lake Tikapo where food is easily available.... More

Peppers Bluewater Resort was a perfect place to stay on our few nights in that city. Charming towns around the area and a quick drive to Mount Cook. The landscaping is beautiful and the lake is just across the street. The resort itself was clean, spacious, and FREE LAUNDRY! Which was great for us as we were traveling throughout the... More

The best thing about it, has to be the amazing views of Lake Tekapo. We stayed here for one night during our road trip of the South Island. We took a two bedroom apartment, and the space was fabulous, rooms downstairs and kitchen, living area upstairs. IT was an excellent place to stay at.

The good things first..... Number one has to be the incredible view to wake up to each morning - has to be one of the best in the world and makes me proud of my country. We had two one-bedroom lakeview apartments between three of us - probably an overkill but we wanted comfort and relaxation. We certainly got it!... More

Third time I have stayed here and this time stayed in a one bedroom apartment. The layout is superb and the whole apartment very roomy. The sun streams in most of the day and two heat pumps also keep it warm if needed. Amazing big bath and high power shower and the full kitchen has everything that you could possibly... More

We visited Peppers Bluewater Resort with my son & his family. I'm not sure why it was called a "resort" as there appeared to be little in the way of activities apart from the excellent accommodation. The staff were welcoming and friendly and our 2 bedroom Lakeview villa had a lovely view. It was spacious, comfortably furnished and very clean.... More

We returned this year to Peppers Tekapo having had a memorable saty before. As a family, we went for a three-bedroom unit. The ambience is warm, inviting and put us in a holiday mood. The furnishing is as before, five-star quality and the place is spotlessly clean. However, this time, we were disappointed that the kitchen facilities ie the small... More

We stayed for 2 nights at the end of our tour of NZ. Rooms were clean and tidy. Good food with reasonable choice. A few shops, restaurants just a few minutes walk from the hotel.
