Fiordland Lakeview Motel and Apartments

10/10 Excellent
"Would highly recommend this property. The view is spectacular. The amenities are wonderful and you have everything you need here. If you just want to sleep there or if you want to have meals, they have thought of everything heated floors in the bathroom spray for the toilet room, ground coffee machine filled reusable water bottles for you to borrow. A great place to stay for a couple of days really appreciated the recommendation from staff on leaving early for Milford sound cruise to beat the traffic."
