AMAZING STAY!! I do not have enough Accolades to express how much we enjoyed our stay.
If you are going to Doubtful Sound... THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE!! You will be sleeping before the rest of the boat tour is 1/2 way back to their hotel!
This place is middle of Alpaca Farm, unit/building is a very private but a part of a larger barn/storage structure. Unit was large and immaculate. There is fridge cooktop microwave pots pans dishwasher plates silverware. Also, a Washer and Dryer which we found EXTREEMLY handy for middle of out 3-week NZ trip. Bed was very nice and we slept perfectly for our 3-night stay.
There is a Jacuzzi 10 steps from the unit that was wonderful to use at night. We followed the owners written instructions to turn the water temp up and down before and after use. This practice will save owners monies hence, save you(who is reading this) keeping the rental rate down, Be mindful of Jacuzzis are expensive to run and upkeep. It is FANTASTIC owner have this enjoyable feature!
I had great correspondence with the owner through Booking,com prior to our visit. However, owner was out of town the days we were there. There is a Lady(I do not recall her name) that tended to the Alpaca Farm while they were away. This Lady gave us tour of farm where you could pet and feed Alpacas. I can not say enough about the hospitality this lady gave us during our stay. She provided WONDERFULL tips about Doubtful, Milford sounds as well as great information about our travels to Wanaka and Mt Cook. She was such a delight to speak with she represents the owners wonderfully as a host!
Owner recycles/filters rain water which was amazing. Water tastes like "nothing" simply the way water should taste, refreshing and cold right from tap. Far cry from any city water or well water. We filled all our water bottles before we left.
DO NOT MISS THIS EXPERIENCE!! It is stay and hospitality, we will forever remember on our NZ visit!

The historic aspect of this house. Later on we saw the original pic of the house in the visitor center of Doubtful Sound.
Perfect location to spend the night before an early DS cruise.

Very nice, if dated in a clean and pleasant manner, river view/fishing enthusiast home. We took a boat tour of Doubtful Sound and walked from our property, via a nearby walkway, to the waterfront on Lake Manapouri from whence the tour commenced. Less than 200 meters. Well appointed kitchen.

We were able to upgrade from a very basic cabin ....to a unit with a bathroom and its own tv. This made our stay better.....as literally nothing to do in Manapouri but wait for our Cruise the next day. Beds were comfortable and electric blankets. Lovely big heat pump so toasty warm

Manapouri is a very small, lakefront town that has a beautiful view of Lake Manapouri and the mountains beyond. It also has a fantastic cafe/bar/restaurant called The Church, which I thoroughly recommend. However, don't stay at the Manapouri Lakeview Motor Inn if you can avoid it.

Manapouri is a quiet place with few amenities, does have a church pub restaurant which was great, a must visit . And an antique traders shop and cafe and petrol.
Station . The area is very close to the Doubtful
Sound cruise terminal, which has cruises daily into Doubtful
Sound which takes you across lake Manapouri .
The lake is tranquil
And unspoilt with walking and cycling tracks along its shores.

there was a lack of staff as the barman was waiter as well as reception so a long wait for any service at the bar and a long wait for the meals which were absolutely shocking

Beautiful part of the country.
Beautiful part of the country. Great day trip with NZ real to Doubtful Sounds. Staff so friendly and informative. Day 2 went to the glow worms cave, shorter trip. A great experience again with NZ real tours. These guys are a great team of young people and made the tours very friendly 10 out of 10. Ate at the Fat Duck 1 night, enjoyed very mouth full, serves was excellent. the ranch the next tonight where you could get a lovely roast meal for $25. In manapouri we visited and wonderful antique store in view street. I purchased a couple of lovely things. Well worth a look and you can spend half an hour there easily. Te anua is the place to stay though not in Manapouri unless you have a boat.
Location very convenient to Doubtful Sounds trip😊
Henry and his father were wonderful hosts. Helpful, welcoming and hospitable. The lace, like it’s name, has a unique charm all of its own and our cosy cabin with a heater and electric blanket were the icing on the cake. Thankyou Henry for a great stay and your Dad for the Astro.
very relaxing stay, many trees, plenty of space for tents or campervans, cozy cabins, very friendly staff
just 25 minutes to walk to the vessel terminal for Doubtful Sound and 20 minutes to drive to Te Anau
Excellent accommodation and very friendly helpful host. Beautiful views and well placed for hiking, cycling, visiting Doubtful Sound and Te Anau. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again
Friendly owners, close to embarkation point for doubtful sound cruise, family history tied to discovery of doubtful sound route, lovely cooked breakfast
