location , view, spacious lounge and tastefully furnished , very nice boat

The view!!! The view!!! The view!!! The host! All the succestions we got, what to do, where to eat, what to avoid.

No wifi

Host Tim was incredibly warm and welcoming, even staying up until 10pm to welcome us after we got held up in Milford Sound. The facilities were lovely and clean and the lake views were gorgeous. We felt wonderfully attended to in the morning with the breakfast provided- yoghurt, fruits, toast with butter and jam, coffee, tea, you name it. Couldn't recommend this b&b more highly.

It was just a tad remote- we ended up eating dinner at milford sound lodge, which was a good call because this was about a 10min drive outside of Te Anau proper.

amazing views and nice breakfast in the morning

a bit out of town but totally worth it for the views and tranquility

amazing view of the lake, fantastic host, comfortable clean room and a short distance to town

The breakfast was just perfect; fresh fruit salad, toast and local honey yoghurt, plunger coffee. The location of the commanding viewpoint looking over Lake Te Anau was magical. Phil Smith, the host, was very hospitable, kindly, informative, knowledgeable. He feels like a real friend now!

Nothing could have been better.

The locality was brilliant for our needs

N/A

Phil was a great host and we had a wonderful time. His house offers spectacular lake and mountains views and this is the house if you are looking for a quite stay with uninterrupted views. Very comfortable bed with super fast wifi. Thank you so much Phil for the ride on your baby Thunderbird and find my missing glasses. I will definitely come back with my family next time and stay longer in his house to explore more!

None

Phil was a great host and gave us lots of tips for stops along the way to Milford Sound. He is very friendly and made sure we had a great stay.

Breakfast was substantial. Host very knowledgeable. Fire n comfy lounge was great.

The view was amazing, yum fresh fruit and toast for breakfast. Phil was nice and his knowledge was helpful. Let us use the washing machine and dryer which we appreciate very much. Bed was comfy. Smart TV in room.

That it was shared, don't get me wrong Phil is a great person to chat with, I just didn't like that it was someone else's home and having to share a lounge/breakfast area. Bathroom was tiny, placement of toilet roll was very awkward to turn and reach and hard to get in and out of shower bath with toilet being right there.

Both great

Everything was good

Phil is a very friendly and welcoming host. Great views across the lake.

This B&B is in a most spectacular location with amazing views across the lake to the mountains beyond. The accommodation is first class and very comfortable, to the point of cosy with the fire place. Add in a great host!

Could not fault this accomodation- definitely would stay again

Great place with great hosts. Would definitely return

This B&B ticks all the boxes. Our room was spotlessly clean, the bed was comfortable and the breakfast was more than adequate. The usual things you look for when travelling were all there. And then there is that view. Spectacular. Throw in a warm fireplace, comfy lounge and interesting conversation after a big (and chilly) day out. Our host Phil went to lengths to make sure we got the most out of our time at Te Anu. He has an abundance of local knowledge and made great recommendations about food, activities and the like. He was super accommodating and having access to the laundry and being able to bring takeaways in after a big day out really made us feel at home. We have no hesitation recommending Loch Vista to anyone else and look forward to returning ourselves to enjoy more of what this incredible part of the world has to offer.

Peaceful location just out of Te Anau. A great place to stay after the Routeburn Track. We appreciated the bath for aching muscles! Lovely linen and comfy bed. Nice breaky with view of the garden, loch and mountain range beyond. Very clean. Good dinner suggestion thanks... We enjoyed Fat Duck.

Did not have 2degrees phone reception

Phil the host was very welcoming, and had great suggestions for activities and food in Te Anau. The room was just what we needed and the views from the house were beautiful. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends and family

The location of the property cannot be better. And with beautiful lake view. Host is very friendly and helpful, offered everything we need.
