Lakefront Lodge

4.6(205 reviews)

About

Lakefront Lodge, on South Island, sits at 58 Lakefront Drive in Te Anau, a motel in the town beside the lake. First-time visitors should expect a straightforward motel setup in a lakeside town rather than a large resort complex.

A 4.6 out of 5 average across 205 reviews reflects a solid, well-used record of guest feedback. The website at http://www.lakefrontlodgeteanau.com/ gives a direct way to reach the property. Its position in Te Anau puts the lodge within reach of Queenstown, Wanaka, Dunedin, Christchurch, Nelson, Blenheim and Kaikoura, so travellers moving between the main towns can break the journey here.

Te Anau lies within reach of Queenstown, Wanaka, Dunedin, Christchurch, Nelson, Blenheim and Kaikoura, so the town works as a stop on a wider South Island route. The 58 Lakefront Drive address places it close to the water in Te Anau itself. That lakefront setting means the water is a short walk from the door.

Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country. Fish and chips, meat pies and flat whites are everyday takeaway staples across New Zealand, which makes eating on the road simple. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
