The Landsborough Tekapo

Lake Tekapo

Set in Lake Tekapo, within 46 km of Mt. Dobson, The Landsborough Tekapo offers accommodation with air conditioning. The interiors! The location! The views! We’ve traveled to 65 countries and never fell in love with a home so deeply like this one. The design, the warmth, the views of lake tekapo, the night sky, the cleanliness, convenience, area, ease of access. It’s huge! 3 bedrooms! We were four but it could have easily fit 8. The rooms were clean and at the level of a hotel. There were mini bags of laundry detergent, make up removing wipes - so many thoughtful little touches that the couple Jen & Hamish set out for their guests. We had NZ staple snack set aside for us upon arrival. Jen and Hamish are the best hosts ever, I actually met them and asked them if they would do another as we just loved the home. It gets booked out fast, so if in tekapo, I wouldn’t wait to book it.

Port Levy B & B Christchurch

Port Levy

Boasting sea views, Port Levy B & B Christchurch features accommodation with a private beach area and a patio, around 45 km from Christchurch Railway Station. Martin and Verity were very friendly and helpful hosts. They were industrious people who spent many years to make this remote area of Port Levy into a restful paradise. They planted many pine trees into a pine forest and harvest pine nuts. They planted different vegetables and herbs for cooking. Verity is an multi-talented artist and a chef. Therefore the meals she prepared for us were pleasing to our eyes and our palates. We wish we could be like chameleon that can fix one eye to the food, and the other to the view. The full English breakfasts and other choices were excellent, with different kinds of home-made jam to choose from. The optional dinner was sumptuous too. A spectacular sea view made the food even taste better. We enjoyed our meals inside when it was rainy and windy, and our breakfast outside on the balcony when it was warm and sunny. The beauty of the place shone through both rain and shine. This place could be named Port Levy BnBnDnV (Bed and Breakfast and Dinner and View).
