We had an amazing stay at Scarlett 11 in Tekapo! The weather was absolutely perfect, allowing us to enjoy a breathtaking sunset right above the accommodation and a stunning view of the stars at night. The entire apartment was impeccably clean, and we especially appreciated the no-shoes policy, which made the space feel even more comfortable and homely. The washing machine worked perfectly—we used it twice—and all necessary cleaning and laundry supplies were thoughtfully provided. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and both the air conditioning and heating systems functioned flawlessly, ensuring a cozy stay. Our parents absolutely loved it, and my sister especially enjoyed running up and down the nearby hills. We also appreciated the convenience of having a hose just outside to wash our car. Plus, the location was fantastic—just a short walk from the town center, where we found the most amazing café. It was truly a memorable stay. Thank you!

Gorgeous unit and tastefully designed. A lot of people have pointed out that it offers little privacy due to the many glass panels and windows but we didn't find it a problem as there were ample blinds in all the rooms and shared spaces. The fact that each room had its own bathroom was a huge plus point. The kitchen was well-appointed and had everything we needed to cook a simple breakfast. Location was fantastic too. Easily the nicest place we stayed at during our trip around the South Island.

Spacious apartment with outstanding views. Adele was really lovely and gave us a warm welcome. An added bonus was witnessing the night skies. The property is very close to a track (Cowans Hill), which was perfect for stargazing - we saw the Milky Way.

    I adore Lake Tekapo. Views for days. Good hot pools.

    I adore Lake Tekapo. Views for days. Good hot pools. Peaceful. A decent serious hike up Mt John to the Observatory Cafe or an easier one up to Cowes Lookout, both with amazing views. I've been going for years - still small but a good supermarket now and more eateries. It is getting busier and pricey, both accommodation and eateries. On the road to Queenstown so an easy stopover. Go with a car if you can - a side trip into Aoraki Mt Cook and walks up the Hooker Valley are worth it.

    Lake Tekapo will continue to be a place I will come back for my holidays and invite friends and family to join. In time, I believe it will be comparable to Wanaka, Queenstown but with more relaxing atmosphere. Hope to see more eateries / restaurants / fine dining in due course.

    It is a perfect pit stop if anyone travelling from Christchuch to Wanaka. We picked our car at Christchurch airport & continued to Lake Tekapo (took around 3 - 3.5 hrs with multiple stops) and stayed here overnight. There are a few reasonable restaurants available close to the hotel in Lake Takepo and most of them close around 8.30 pm. Following next day morning we checked out & visited the famous Shepherd church & lake Tekapo which are next to each other & close to the village shop centre. It is a beautiful location with all the necessary arrangements & perfect pit stop as I said before.

    Beautiful place for family and friends or individuals.

    Beautiful place for family and friends or individuals. Not like Queenstown which gave me a city feeling and the traffic was like Auckland CBD. For people who look for nature, not shopping and plenty of eating, I would recommend Tekapo, but not Queenstown. I like the Chinese restaurant there and the Lakeview. Also very easy ro get around Tekapo.

    Such a beautiful town with amazing views and even more amazing food options! Mackenzies cafe bar and grill was a really nice restaurant and even had colouring in things for the kids. Chicken nuggets were a little pricey but well worth it just for the adult meals The church was really cool to see as well as the bridge

    Tekapo is a beautiful town on the edge of the lake and mountains. We went in winter and the view of the lake with snow on the surrounding mountains was lovely. Our reason for staying was to do a flight over the mountains with Air Safari's. That was the highlight of our trip to New Zealand, absolutely magical.

    Beautiful one bedroom apartment with stunning 180 views of Lake Tekapo.. The apartment is upgraded with little details that just adds extra comfort feeling like home.. heated floors, wide balcony, and open roof for stargazing were the highlights. Its beautiful than the pics on the listing. Amazing host too and timely communication. Will definitely be coming back for this airbnb.. Thanks Kaori and Ban.

    The location of the cottage was great, close to the town centre and the lake. Friendly, helpful manager. The cottage is basic and a bit dated, but it's one of the cheaper options in Lake Tekapo and has everyting you need.
