Great location at the bottom of Lake Pukaki with awesome view onto Mt. Cook. The property provides super service and is completely off-grid and self sustained. Food was awesome. We loved the star gazing - well educated, super comfy and we saw galaxies with our plain eye.

SkyScape, hotel in Lake Pukaki

Located in Twizel in the Canterbury region, SkyScape provides accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking, as well as access to a hot tub.

We (Swiss and Germany) met on the Abel Tasman Track in New Zealand in October 1988. We have never been back to the country since. Now, as retirees, we were able to realise our dream of another long trip. Skyscape was the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary! The view, the stars, the full moon, the cheese and sausage platter, it doesn't get any better than this! Thank you for the wonderful time and the memories we can take with us!

    The shower was very good, the bed and pillows comfortable and the view towards the mountains was excellent. We ate in the main Lodge on two occasions with Luke, his wife Kaye and other guests which was very enjoyable. We attended a cooking demonstration with hufa which was excellent and was followed by a lovely lunch. Luke the owner was very prompt in coming to discuss all our concerns but couldn’t change anything, he offered the cooking demonstration and the opportunity to eat in the main lodge with him, which we accepted.

    Location has excellent views. View of lake and mountains was exceptional. Room (given the rate) was more like a modern clean motel than a luxurious lodge. I fully appreciate what the owners are trying to do but it falls short on a global scale. Our hosts were very courteous. Dining again was pleasant but fell short of expectations. The food was above average but not excellent. The dining room was very basic and again, given the ambiance and experience the owners are trying to achieve, fell short.
