"A retreat fringed by swaying tussock grass on the edge of Lake Te Anau, Fiordland Lodge is the luxury choice for travelers visiting Fiordland National Park on the South Island. The lodge was designed to magnify the inspiring local environment; that means 36-foot tree trunks for beams in the main lodge, a floor-to-ceiling fireplace laid with river stones, and glass walls that frame Lake Te Anau and the oft snow-capped peaks of Mount Murchison and Kepler Track. The palette is neutral and understated, always putting the emphasis on the exceptional natural beauty of the area. Themain lodge and two private cabins feel like a world unto themselves—a beautiful, comfortable, and relaxing world that is at the gateway to the Milford and Doubtful sounds and all the other Fiordland National Park wonders."

3 things we loved: 1. staff- every single one is thoughtful, kind, warm, welcoming. 2. breathtaking views. 3. Hot tubs- private, surrounded by native grasses, overlooking the lake, easily reserved. ||2 things that made us thoughtful: 1. Food is average. Feels and tastes like it’s been prepared in advance. 2. Rooms in main lodge are not well sound proofed and seemed like we were sharing a room with our neighbors.

Fiordland Lodge was an incredible place to stay. The views over Lake Te Anau were breathtaking, with the lodge’s open design making the most of the scenery. It felt peaceful and secluded, yet still close enough to town for convenience.||The service was outstanding—warm, professional, and genuinely welcoming. The staff went out of their way to make the stay special, whether it was helping with activity planning or just adding thoughtful touches throughout.||The lodge itself had a cozy, upscale feel, with beautiful woodwork, comfortable spaces to relax, and a great atmosphere. It was the perfect place to unwind after exploring Fiordland.||Would absolutely recommend and hope to return!

It’s all about the view. The suite we had was on the corner of the building and very spacious, with great storage for clothing. I’m a complete “unpacker” and there is nothing more welcome than ample space and coat hangers. The Fiordland Lodge had both.||Staff was pleasant and very responsive to special accommodations. We had to vacate for one evening for an overnight on the Milford sound. Staff picked up and stored our baggage that was waiting for us in the when we returned. Ice buckets were always refreshed.||The heated mirror and floor in the bathroom was wonderful. Plush towels and robes. And ample countertop space. ||The food was good. Two choices for dinner’s entree, main and dessert. Breakfasts are homey and fresh. One itch was the formula of having guests come down to the common room for “canapés” and drinks at 6pm and in so doing, order one’s meal. Forced interaction with other guests. Not something we enjoy doing.||Enjoy a hot tub if you visit… they are immaculate, private and offer an indescribable view, especially at sundown. ||With their close proximity to Te r’s opportunity to go into this small town for a lunch or shopping. Two very fine NZ “souvenir” shops—- more like boutiques offering finely made jewelry, clothing and pottery.

Fantastic Hotel|We stayed for 3 nights whilst in Te Anau. |Everything was wonderful. The room, the staff, the food (breakfast and dinner)……the location, the wine. Couldn’t ask for more. |The staff were so helpful. Early coffees when we had an early start for Milford Sound. Stored our bags while we had an overnight on Doubtful Sound. |It really was fabulous.

We stayed here 2 nights. This lodge is beautiful, relaxing with great views outside. It is very clean at the lodge. The food is delicious as we are picky eaters and they accommodated all our requests. The outstanding people are Hailey, Michelle and Rosie for most of our meals. They were patient, polite, and professional. You cannot ask for more from a lodge. Thank you for tolerating our many many requests with a smile on your face and an incredibly pleasant demeanor. Really great. Also want to compliment,Jasmine, Jimmy, Niamh and the chef!||We highly recommend this place to stay, eat and relax!! You won’t be sorry.

The diner was exceptional but being a modern style cuisine portions might be small for some people . The very professional and kind staff made the evening very enjoyable. The wines list is amazing and quite impressive. We have some very famous wines and they delighted our palates. The maitre D was splendid.

Had an amazing time here at the Lodge. James and the staff were all, without exception, amazingly friendly and supportive. We stayed in the cabin and it was a welcome break from hotel rooms, given we have been travelling for 3 weeks. I would highly recommend coming here if you're planning a trip in or near Fiordland (which you absolutely should). The local town (Te Anau) is also lovely and a short distance from the Lodge.

If you are looking for a special place to stay whilst visiting Te Anau or Milford Sound which offers luxury without stuffiness then this is the place for you. The rooms are beautiful with fabulous views across the lake. You are encouraged and welcomed to use the communal areas, for pre dinner drinks or just to sit and admire the views. James and his staff are friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The breakfasts are hearty and the dinners delicious.
