Featuring mountain views, 37 Galaxy B is located in Lake Tekapo, around 46 km from Mt. Dobson. The apartment also provides free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests.

The air-conditioned apartment consists of 3 bedrooms, a living room, a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and a coffee machine, and 3 bathrooms with a walk-in shower and slippers. Towels and bed linen are featured in the apartment. For added privacy, the accommodation has a private entrance and soundproofing.

It is very clean, well equipped and thoughtfully decorated. Everything is so homey. The accessible bathroom is a bonus for our elderly family members. The host is also very kind and responsive, sending us reminder and everything we need to know. Among the eight different accommodations (motels, serviced apartment, hotels etc.) I stayed during my 2-week New Zealand trip, this place is on the top two :) Highly recommended!

Situated in Lake Tekapo and only 44 km from Mt. Dobson, Flat Rock features accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. The property has garden views.

This holiday home has 2 bedrooms, a kitchen with an oven and a microwave, a flat-screen TV, a seating area and 1 bathroom fitted with a shower. Towels and bed linen are offered in the holiday home. The property has an outdoor dining area.

This was a great place in Lake Tekapo. The community was quiet, the kitchen was fully equipped, the bathroom nice and had a wonderful hot shower with high pressure, and the beds were SO comfy and had a much-needed heated pad. We had a car so it was a 4-minute drive to Four Square grocery (where you can walk to the Tekapo waterfront), but we also walked, and it took about 20-25 minutes, so depending on what you'd prefer, it's still reasonably close for those without a car. One thing to note, but not necessarily a bad thing, they do have a washer, but only a drying rack. This didn't bother me, but just wanted to let others know. Overall the stay was very cozy and I would absolutely come back here.

    The well appointed kitchen and 2 bathrooms Cecelia was polite and lovely to deal with and was quick to communicate with us. Also the house was very spacious and lounge was great for watching t.v. All the kids had their own beds and it was sunny and a quiet street. Great for a large family.

    Great sized place that is suitable for a large family, although the two toilets/shower areas would be the limiting factor on how many people can feasibly stay. We loved the small deck on the second floor, as we can gaze at the stars comfortably while sipping tea/wine. There are many game sets placed throughout the house, so there are entertainment options for families with kids. Location-wise, it is less than a minute’s drive to the town centre, yet still feels very private, most likely because it is tucked in a corner.
