Historische hotels in South Island

'What a fantastic place, extremely clean & tidy lots of heaters, great fire. The family had an awesome stay & we will be back.Thank you for letting us bring our little friends.'

'Great bach. Very nostalgic. Location is excellent. It's a bach so not fancy but is clean, well equipped and so cool how it is tucked between the beach and the enormous cliffs behind it. The pancake rocks are minutes away, the rivers and beach are amazing, and the Punakaiki pub and garden bar are great for a cold beer and something to eat. '

'We loved the location of this cozy cottage in Manapouri. We were able to walk into the village easily and grab dinner and it was a short drive to Te Anau. The owners provided great information about the local area and hikes and had lots of great books about the area. We definitely felt like a local staying here and it was a perfect getaway spot. (We especially loved listening to the melodic birds while sitting on the patio.) '

'Very comfortable & well equipped, would’ve stayed longer if we’d known. But it was difficult to find! Google maps just took us to Glentunnel, where we got uncertain directions from the shop.'

'It was a beautiful stay there. Nic was a very welcoming host. Breakfast essentials were included and thankfully used. The house was well equipped and clean.'

'Great cottage and memories made! Exactly as described - and has got our teens out of their comfort zones. Was great to get them to experience an old skool way of living! Highlight was the hot springs down the road. Really appreciated the tour of the property and have recommended the cottage to friends already. '

'Amazing views, comfortable seating and beds, lots of space. We enjoyed our stay here. '

'We had a great night - the bedrooms and bathrooms are amazing! The kitchen had everything we needed and the local shop cooked us pizzas. Such a unique house - thank you!'
