Kaz and Muri were welcoming and helpful. We loved our room, with the private area on the deck and the gorgeous views. Lots of birds to enjoy! Kaz took time to sit around the fireplace and visit with my husband and me, and it was wonderful to hear stories about the area to fill out what we knew from the... More

An unexpectedly lovely experience. We came here for the glacier, of course, and found the most delightful pine lodge with vaulted ceilings, open fireplaces and a really homely atmposhere. We were upgraded to the best suite, a whole flat to ourselves with lovely en-suite. Only one night but we wished it had been too.

We stayed a couple of nights here mid April, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We stayed in units set away from the main lodge, which are beautifully constructed from wood to a very high standard. The unit is large, well equipped and has a walk in shower room. The views of Franz Josef Glacier from the units are spectacular and... More

Recommended by friends in Hokitika they were spot on with their advice. Kaz made us welcome and got... More

She organised our restaurant and helicopter flight immediately and although it's the biggest pkace we stayed in along our way the service was still very personal. Breakfast was served in a wonderful lounge area with magnificent views and such friendly efficient manner. Thoroughly... More

This is a very comfortable property with large guest rooms, dining and shared living areas. The breakfast was yummy with plenty of choices. I can't say enough about the service. I left a very expensive piece of jewelry in my room. Kaz not only located and mailed it too me but even went back to the post office to track... More

I recently stayed here while on a six week trek down under...it was a great place! Kaz the owner was a wonderful, lovely lady. The property was great as was the included breakfast...you can't go wrong here!

We stayed here shortly before Christmas. We were very impressed with the lodge. Although fully booked, we felt totally secluded in our coach house apartment. The apartment was very tastefully decorated, spacious and the patio was surrounded by a beautiful garden with spectacular views of the glacier. The breakfast in the main lodge was absolutely delicious. We had the full... More
