We stayed one night, room was reasonably clean, staff was super friendly. Breakfast is included, very basic but enough to start the day. The bread on the table appeared to be homemade and was very good. Small kitchen area for everyone trying to cook breakfast at the same time but doable. All in all a good experience.
What a wonderful place to stay nestled in the tropical rainforests and mountains. Our room was extremely clean and had everything we would need. The owners were fabulous. We checked in after hours and they went out of their way to accommodate us! Loved the short distance to the glowworm forest and good dinning.
Very nice chalet style accommodation with comfortable loft sleeping and living area below. No electrical outlets in the bathroom was a bit unusual though.

Right by the highway with walking distance to restaurants
Although the pictures of the property online were quite attractive the actual property was lacking in appeal. The room carpeting was dirty and looked like it hadn’t been replaced in too many years to even guess. The room had a musty smell and anyone with allergies or breathing issues (me) would have issues. The handrails were covered with metal which was slippery, impossible to grip and was either HOT or cold and dangerous to anyone who required a rail to hold going up the stairs. Rating this property with a 2 would be generous.
Very close to Fox Glacier helicopter tour experiences. The lodge also offered a guided glo worm walk through the Minnehaha walkway, a good way to meet other travellers.
Property has private cabins, shared fascilities and easy access for campervans. Very quiet and relaxed atmosphere.
We had a compact room and were therefore offered the use of a small room opposite for our luggage, which we didn't need. Everything in the room was clean but the carpet was worn. The location was quiet. Kettle and breakfast were in a communal kitchen which was more hostel-style than hotel. Adequate food was laid out in the morning, which we helped ourselves to. It was off-putting that people were expected to do their own washing up, and we saw people just rinsing things minimally under the tap rather than washing them properly.
