Overall, our stay was fabulous – 5/5
The house was a true luxury retreat, with every detail carefully thought out. We loved the speakers in every room, the beautiful TV artwork, the games, the crockery / glassware and all the minimalist touches.
The amazing sunsets and sunrises with the breathtaking Lake Tekapo view in the background were unforgettable.
My partner and best friends loved it too – we created amazing memories together. We wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy other parts of the house.
I truly hope this property is kept in the condition it is in - true masterpiece !
Thanks Shreeya 💙 we think this property is amazing.
