The view of lake Tekapo was spectacular. It was conveniently located to the stores for food and gift shopping. Restaurants were also nearby. We stayed in the 2 bedroom accommodations and there was plenty of space. The kitchen was well stocked giving the opportunity for a home cooked meal. Washer and dryer facility was an added convenience.
