Mantra Lake Tekapo

Easy to get to. Covered in snow :) perfect for our family reunion. Super warm too

Nothing really.

The location is near the center. The facilities are clean. We had everything we need for our overnight stay.

The staff in the reception was not around when we arrived. But he came after few minutes.

Great location. Tidy and comfortable.

The balcony wooden flooring needs fixing. Backyard had cigarette butts from previous guests - not ideal with little kids who love to pick up everything.

The location of the property is excellent — just a few minutes’ walk to the Church by the lake, and not far from supermarkets and other amenities, which made it very convenient.

However, there were a few downsides. Check-in details were not proactively provided, and on a rainy night I had to call to ask for the lock code. The garage door was faulty — although someone came quickly after I reported it, it couldn’t be fixed, so we had to open it manually, which was inconvenient in the rain. The garage is also quite small; if you drive a 7-seater, you won’t be able to open the trunk once parked, so something to keep in mind. The kitchen was not fully equipped, so I would recommend checking in first and then going to the supermarket to get what you need. In addition, the smoke detector batteries had not been replaced in time — it went off three times during the night, and I had to go downstairs each time to stop it before eventually removing it myself.
