Great home and location

52 Matai St was everything we needed for our short stay in Te Anau. Warm and inviting right in the heart of town. A short and easy walk to the town centre and the lake.Will definitely be back when we can!!!

Fantastic stay

Leigh’s property was fantastic. The house was warm and had everything we needed - and more! The bed was so comfy my partner and I wanted to take it home! Location was great too. Honestly, couldn’t rave about this place enough.

Family Milford sound

Great place to stay for our trip to Milford Sound. Walking distance to the lake front and shops. The view from the bedroom in the morning was a treat.

Walking distance to everything

Great location, it was within walking distance to everything: Grocery store and plenty of restaurants to choose from. Also, within walking distance to RealNZ’s departure point for the Glowworm Cave, Milford & Doubtful Sound adventures. Also, if you have a rent car the drive to Milford Sound is worth the trip and if you’re adventuresome then hike to the waterfalls at the Humboldt Falls.Aside from the great location, there were 3 bedrooms so plenty of room and the kitchen was nicely appointed with everything that you’ll need for your adventures.

Old-style Kiwi bach. Basic but comfortable and cosy. It would be great if there was a dryer for clothes.

Perfectly located, all that you need

Three good sized bedrooms, we only used 2 but can say they both had comfortable beds. Heat pump in the lounge area. Kitchen suitable for simple cooking. We felt the only way to improve it would be have some outdoor seating to enjoy the backyard space. Thanks Leigh, if we are back in Te Anau we will be back for sure.

Cozy

They house was great, exactly what we needed. clean, fresh, room for kids to run. Close to town to walk in. Only problems we had come up were more to do with the bookabatch than the house itself.

Loved this cosy cottage with comfy beds, a lovely view and a generously stocked pantry (which a lot of places overlook). Great communication with our host - we'd definitely day again.

Great location!

The home is basic but clean and was great for our group of 5 people. Just one block to the main shopping/restaurant area and 2-3 blocks to the lake. Would recommend if you are spending time in Milford Sound and aren't high maintenance.

Improvement Required!

I am surprised that this property has collected so many 10/10s! It's a bit tatty around the edges, and needs some serious repair work and modernisation. Lots of potential improvements required - a shortage of cooking equipment, a distinct damp smell and not even a table in the unkept back garden. You got the impression that a permanent resident left the property ten minutes before we arrived, and would probably return immediately after we left. A great location for the Milford Sound trip - but no other reason for returning..
