Everything is perfect. Stuffs are nice. I arrived later than planned and lady in reception organised my late check-in. The room is enormous large than I imagine, clean and in good condition, living room is cosy with sofa, kitchen is well equipped with pans, knives and scissors, bedroom is big and the bed is comfortable. Bathroom is also large with bathtub, toilette is separed. I am lucky to have a room face to the lovely backyard garden, very relaxing.

My family and I really loved the hotel and the Family Suite. They did not wish to leave as we feeling so much at home. The location of your hotel is also one of your greatest assets as it is so picturesque and set in a breathtaking location. Te Anau being the gateaway for Milford Sound, Doubtful Sound, and Otago is also the icing on the cake. We have a tremendous and fun filled time. Thank you so much. We are looking to return in 2 years time.

Stayed 3 nights & 2 days, but should have spent more time.

Stayed 3 nights & 2 days, but should have spent more time. Town has terrific street art, good cafes/restaurants, amazing Takahe at bird sanctuary (donation entry), lovely lakeside walk. Enjoyed drive to & from Milford Sound & cruise, but missed Doubtful Sound. Loved walk at start of Kepler Track from Rainbow beach, plus pub at Lake Manapouri in church.

Lovely and quite place if you have the right accomodation. Need to travel into Te Anu to eat. We stayed the night before Doubtful Sound cruise and found alternative accomodation for the following night as the Motel was beyond terrible.

You don't need to spend money on tours if you don't have it (I never do), as there are plenty of beautiful walks to discover for yourself. Ulva Island is a must, though!!! The bird life is amazing, and even though at home we have plenty of kereru, piwakawaka, bellbirds, the song and sight of these guys over there is next level. Kereru, walking or sitting on the ground, is not seen in cities. Do take sandfly spray as these wee guys are also very friendly 😉

This is a warm, well-appointed and charming but unpretentious accommodation that suited our needs as 'passing-through" visitors. It was ideally placed in our swing through Southland and Central Otago to catch up with friends in various locations over this region. I should add that we booked here because we had few other options brought about by changes in itinerary that meant we were searching for somewhere suitable with only a day's advance notice! All in all, we were very happy with our choice. We cooked our own meals on perfectly adequate facilities.

Am SO glad we decided to stay in Bluff! We met the most wonderful, kind, generous authentic people ever!! We had the most fantastic two days here - was well worth coming and staying in the Foveaux Hotel with owners Mike and Pam was just fabulous - so authentic and gorgeous. We will be coming back to Bluff to see the wonderful people we met again!

Quiet little town between Queenstown and Milford Sound.

Quiet little town between Queenstown and Milford Sound. Room rates are very reasonable; and the attached resturant was very good. The lamb shank was excellent! Fun place to hang with the friendly locals. It is a good 3 hour drive to Milford Sound from here (not the 2:15 the GPS will say) so you need to leave extra time if you have a boat tour scheduled. Mossburn is a good place to gas up your car before leaving for Milford Sound or Queenstown. Our room had a large attached bathroom, and the shower had great water pressure. Secure parking located behind the building gave easy access to the rooms. Don't be afraid to go to Milford Sound if it's raining; the waterfalls are even more spectacular!

We love coming here, though perhaps not during the height of the summer holiday season. We have been to Te Anau many, many times (including during the closed borders, which we loved, to be honest...). Te Anau is one of those small towns that predominantly caters for tourists. But there are two types of tourists: those who take the well-known trips to Milford and/or Doubtful Sound, whether guided or unguided, and, of course, the many hikers. Fiordland, as a rule, offers some of the best hiking in the country, and the town definitely caters to both groups. Unlike Queenstown, however, Te Anau does have an "off season" as most of the overnight hikes (Milford, Routeburn in particular) are closed during the winter months, and the Milford Road might also be closed periodically during snow events. That would be our preferred time to visit—fewer People. Also, Te Anau recently hosted the famous South Sea Spray festival. As Southlanders ourselves, we are familiar with this and travelled there especially to see all the fantastic new murals. It is a nice distraction to "hunt" for them.
