Super spot for hiking and the hot springs were a fun way to relax after the hike. Best to self cater. There is a good size supermarket. The colour of the lake is glorious. we saw the observatory because it was on our hike. I suggest not making a special trip up there unless you are comfortable with a lot of people taking photos and a lot of noise in an otherwise tranquil and beautiful area

We only stayed one night but we all agreed that we should of extended another day. Lake Tekapo was very easy to get around . One long strip of shops and restaurants. You need to book a restaurant as they close early as some were more popular than others. We settled for Fish and Chips instead. A little takeaway shop hidden on the main stripe. Don't be taken back as this was one of the best fish and chip shops around. A little gem and the fish, chips and burgers were to die for.

I’ve visited this place several times, but each visit has never felt quite enough. I could have easily stayed there forever. The town was small and quiet, yet it was the combination of the lake, the dark sky reserve perfect for stargazing, and the mountains in the distance that made everything feel absolutely perfect.

Great location…not as crowded as say Queenstown and very handy to great sights.
Good accomodation and restaurants…..maybe not the same level of activities as other places but the views are to die for

I had a long wish list but only have 2 days to explore hence I picked the ones most suitable for the weather and timing. We went to Mt Cook and did a short hiking at Tasman glacier car park to the river side, short 25-30 minutes mostly flat walking to a super rewarding view of the river with big ice blocks in the river, and the blue colour of the lake was just so unique. We tasted the salmon at the shop beside the Lake Pukaki, simple menu but great taste with great view. Had the best burger at Lake Tekapo beside the lake where a few food trucks are there, the one we had is from Monster Kitchen who has 4.9 rating, I would give them 5!

What a lovely house with a beautiful view of Lake Tekapo!
What a lovely house with a beautiful view of Lake Tekapo! The kitchen and laundry are fully equipped, everything is spotless, and the beds are very comfortable. Only a 3-minute drive to the Four Square supermarket. Definitely planning to come back again!

Location was perfect. Walking distance to town centre and the beach. The park was jam packed with tourists using cabins, caravan places and hostel facilities, however felt super private and peaceful. The room was spacious with fantastic views of lake tekapo. Kitchenette in the private cabins were great, cant cook in them, though the shared bbqs and kitchens are just outside the door.
This hotel is brand new, and in an excellent location overlooking Lake Tekapo - the views from our bedroom were breathtaking. The small town centre is within easy walking distance. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the room comfortable.
Loved having a whole home to ourselves with two bedrooms after being in holiday park for the remainder of our holiday. Great facilities, well presented, comfortable and warm. Located close to the centre of Tekapo.
Lake Tekapo is a nice place, the accommodation in this area is relatively expensive. The room is same as picture, nice view. There is a shared kitchen.
