Was Gäste sagen

Im Lakes Edge Holiday Park loben Gäste durchweg die spektakuläre Seelandschaft und die herrliche Bergkulisse sowie die praktische, fußläufige Lage in der Nähe von Tekapo Springs und der Stadt. Es wird jedoch darauf hingewiesen, dass die Unterkünfte von einfachen Kabinen mit Gemeinschaftseinrichtungen bis hin zu gut ausgestatteten Einheiten mit eigenem Bad variieren.

Viele Bewertungen heben saubere Zimmer und Einrichtungen hervor, während einige über stark frequentierte oder gelegentlich schmutzige Gemeinschaftsküchen und -bäder sowie zeitweise einen starken Reinigungsgeruch berichten. Der Service wird häufig als freundlich und effizient beschrieben, aber einige Gäste hatten mit starren Check-in-Zeiten, begrenzter Kommunikation bei später Ankunft oder wenig hilfsbereiten Antworten auf Stornierungen oder Anfragen nach Geräten zu kämpfen. Die Zimmerqualität reicht von modern und gut ausgestattet bis klein oder veraltet, mit lückenhaftem WLAN, unregelmäßiger Heizung oder Kühlung sowie gelegentlichem Staub oder Lärm von inneren Straßen. Insgesamt ist mit einem flexiblen, selbstversorgenden Ferienparkaufenthalt zu rechnen, nicht mit einem Hotel mit vollem Service.

KI-Zusammenfassung aktueller Gästebewertungen

Ausstattung

Auf dem gesamten Gelände stehen Gemeinschaftsküchen, Gemeinschaftsbäder mit Warmwasserduschen, Grillbereiche, Wäschemöglichkeiten und Parkplätze in der Nähe der Unterkünfte zur Verfügung. Im Allgemeinen nützlich und sauber, obwohl die Küchen zu Stoßzeiten überfüllt oder schmutzig sein können und einige Einrichtungen spartanisch wirken können.

The photos provided on Hotels.com do not do this property justice at all. It is actually way nicer. It is a popular place to stay and each staff member we interacted with were so friendly and helpful. Our room had the most beautiful view. Parking was directly next to our unit. Our unit was very clean and had everything we needed. It is about a 5-10 walk into the center of town. The food trucks are a 5 minute walk to and they are also better than most of the restaurants. The hot springs are also a short walk away and they provide a few discounts for people staying at Lakes Edge. We wished we had booked for a few more nights!

A good location with a short walk into the town centre of Lake Tekapo. We stayed in the standard cabin for 2 nights which was nicely decorated and clean. It was advertised with having wifi however we had no wifi for our whole trip as it didn’t seem to reach our cabin. There is also no mobile data coverage there so we weren’t able to use our phones unless we were in a communal area. The toilets and showers were clean however we were dissatisfied with the kitchen which was incredibly dirty and busy. The hob cookers were filthy, there was no room in the fridge and not enough space to cook/clean meaning you had to queue at times outside to use the facilities.

Basic cabin with electricity but no running water. Clean, comfortable bed… but should have read further as the toilet is across the gravel parking lot and not fun to access at night. Coffee/tea available in room. Walking distance to hot springs. Great for those who do not need to get up at night or mind sleeping near campers/ vehicles/ generators at night. Clean comfortable common spaces.

Room is dated but kitchen area is renovated. Lake view✓✓!! Hated the tiny shower stall where the shower curtain kept getting to my legs while showering as blown by the ventilation fan over the ceiling. No shower head. Uncomfortable taking shower. No Shampoo provided . Body wash ran out . Great location for Star gazing!!

It was prepped before we arrived, so the heater was on and place warm. Clean and cutlery and plates provided. Easy booking in. What could be improved: the bunk beds were not made up, bedding had to be put on by ourselves. No plastic washing up bowl was provided so it was difficult to carry the dirty dishes from the cabin to the kitchen. The road to the toilets was badly lit and steep/slippery, which was tricky for me as I have arthritus. Steps down along the grass banks, better lit would be much more accessible and safe when using the toilets during the night.

Location for view is magnificent and the cabin was well equipped and very clean. We understood there was no bathroom but we did expect a sink and tap to wash your hands. I also found it unusual that there was no staircase to the toilet block and no lighting . The amenities block was clean and the shower was very hot with hooks to hang your towel. This was appreciated. The sinks in the ladies bathroom are very slow to drain. We also appreciated the insect screened window and the lovely fresh linen.

What a dump! Words and pictures do lead you to believe you will be staying in a nice lake front cabin when the reality is you are in front of a dusty and noisy road. I found a really ugly bug (possibly centipede) by my bed, needless to say the mattress was plain horrible. The check in person was a stickler for the 3pm check in time, which after a long drive wasn’t pleasant at all. All I can say shame on you Expedia for offering this!

Staff were friendly. We had a 3 bedroom villa. There’s only an aircon in the living room. This aircon is not strong enough to ventilate/circulate the entire villa. Guests were advised to keep the windows closed so that insect will not enter the villa. Moreover, windows did not have any insect netting installed. Unfortunately, there were no standing fans in the rooms and staff do not have any standing fans to be sent to our rooms. Our option were to either open the windows and let the insects in. Or closed the windows and deal with the stuffiness. Resort should consider putting fans in the bedroom. Definitely not recommended for summer holidays.

Excellent Kiwi Bach - multiple rooms, great bedding (very warm, electric blankets also included), kitchen well stocked with equipment. Wifi isn’t fantastic, quite patchy however, you have a beautiful lake to look out on and enjoy the surrounds so put the phone down!! Can walk to the Tekapo Springs down the road.

We had a decent stay here. I thought the photos from the room of being near the lake meant we were actually closer to the lake (i.e. truly at the edge). Instead the space between the patio and the lake pictured is actually a driveway for the other vehicles and RV's- so its not as peaceful as expected from the photo. In addition, we were in room 6 of the motel, which happens to be next to the laundry room, so we did have noise from people using the laundry room. Otherwise a good stay, just a few unexpected things.

We drove from Wanaka and road was closed so had to turn around and go around I called hotel to advise and they said they don't do cancellations for when road is closed - so the expectation is that people will drive for hours on detours to get there. I did not enjoy this phone call and when we come back next year we will not stay at this hotel.

Such an improvement to facilities to when we stayed here in 2011 with a variety of options for those travelling solo, with families or company. I booked through Expedia and unfortunately they booked myself, partner & young child in accommodation that was for 2 people only. Luckily the staff were fantastic and managed to find us alternative accommodation at no extra cost. Stress-free stay and everything on hand. Would highly recommend this accommodation.

Nice property right on the Lake. We had a lake view room with an en-suite bath. It wasn’t overly fancy but it served our purpose. The bed was comfortable and the room was somewhat quiet. It had great access to nearby trails right from the property, which is the reason we chose to stay here. Office staff was friendly and helpful. Kitchenette provides for microwave cooking only, no hot plate or stove. We got fish & chips from a food truck right on the lake and it was delicious (Better Batter was the name). Wifi was not terrific but it served our purposes well enough.
