Te Anau Lakeview Holiday Park & Motels
5 out of 5
Posted 6 days ago
Travelocity Verified Review
"We got a cabin. Clean and comfortable. Bathroom is a shared building same as kitchen. Hired a basket of cooking and plates utensils for $5. It’s something like $200/ 2 nights for 3 people. Very cheap but the bathroom outside is inconvenient as it was very cold. Internet also only at the dining. Very clean facilities but you get what you paid for essentially. "
