We had a wonderful stay at Mackenzie Suites in Tekapo — it was by far the best accommodation we experienced during our South Island trip. The private garage on the ground floor was such a thoughtful touch, especially during heavy snow. We were amazed to find our own name displayed above the garage — what a warm welcome! The host even waited for us at the door in the snow and kindly helped reverse the car into the garage to ensure our safety. Upstairs, the suite was spacious, modern, and filled with natural light. The panoramic lake and snow views from the three-sided floor-to-ceiling windows were absolutely breathtaking — we could have spent the whole day just soaking it in. The kitchen was fully equipped, the washing and drying facilities were excellent, and we even found a dedicated iPad with curated local recommendations for food and activities in Tekapo. One of the best surprises: a 12:00 noon checkout — the only one out of the 12 hotels we stayed in across the South Island. That extra time made such a difference and truly shows the thoughtfulness behind every detail. Highly recommended.

Awesome view, got take-out both nights to fully enjoy it. Getting breakfast served in the room (without surcharge) was definitely the right choice. Easy parking, close to the town centre (quick drive or short walk). Would stay again!
