My husband and I were warmly greeted by curious dwarf horses as we approached the beautiful property. We had a comfortable and enjoyable stay at this stunning place. It rained throughout our short visit, but it only added to the ambience of the place. The access to delicious food at less than a kilometer away made this property all the more pleasant. Highly recommend staying here.

We had the best stay in South Island here at the Kea Retreat. Our host Iona and Graham were superb. The property is in a pristine condition and excellently managed. We enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen. Would love to stay again.

    Has a bit of vintage feel to it with wooden cabins. Not that far from Franz Joseph city center (just over 2 kms). Very friendly staff. Great views from the villas. Board Games and Movies (DVDs) available to borrow from reception for the rainy day.

    Glenfern Villas are a little village of more recently built ski-style loft villas. The unit we occupied was a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom with a well appointed small kitchenette with table for 4. The living room had two small sofas and TV with NZ channels. Nice soap, shampoo and conditioner was provided and they gave us fresh milk for coffee. Simone at reception was very nice, professional and knowledgeable.

    Very clean and comfortable small holiday home estate a little outside the main drag of Franz Josef. Spacious self-catering accomodation, comfy bed, good bathrooms. Best to be in a car if you want to eat in the township itself.
