We were happy with this unit since it is difficult to get a 3 bathroom unit that has 3 bathrooms. The facilities were great and we managed to stay and enjoy our meals together. We also had the change to do our laundry with ample space to dry them.

Every aspect of our stay was wonderful. We couldn't have asked for better accommodation. For two couples travelling together on a touring holiday it was the perfect place to stay. In fact the best accommodation we had for our entire two week holiday in the South Island of NZ

One of the cleanest hostels I’ve stayed in. Really nice place to stay to explore Lake Tekapo and Mt Cook. Beautiful location on the lake and in the village, a short walk to everything. The dorm rooms have bunk beds with privacy curtains and charging points with lockers to store your stuff. Great for a few nights stay.

We had such a lovely stay at Peppers. The location was perfect, right across the road from the lake and a very short walk to the restaurants/ shops. We were extremely lucky and grateful to receive an upgrade on check in. Such a lovely room to come back to after a big day of exploring.
