Amazing view and food
Beautiful location with nice hike from the property and free mountain bike use to bike along Lake Pukaki. The highlight, however, was the exceptional food.

Superb little boutique lodge. Staff can't do enough for you. Very comfortable room with garden and a fantastic view. Big bathroom. Food excellent - even a packed lunch - laundry done (at cost). Best hotel of our trip so far. It will take some beating. If you're on a road trip across the east side of the South Island and looking to break the journey consider a stop here. Flights to the glacier from Mt Cook airport, hiking, dark sky area. Beautiful views.

Wow
A truly magical setting with service to match. We’ve stayed in many New Zealand hotels, and this was the first where the staff seemed truly focused on exceeding guests’ expectations. And boy, did they! We had room service dinner, and each—absolutely delicious—course was delivered exactly when we were ready for it, and at the perfect temperature. With no television, we had only conversation (mostly about the food!) and stars to keep us entertained, but seeing every constellation imaginable is an experience we’ll remember forever. We started the next morning with a brisk walk up the trail directly behind the lodge to earn our breakfast. It was cooked to order, magnificent, and served in the cozy dining area, with morning views of Mount Cook and the stunning blue of Lake Pukaki. We didn’t want to leave and would have stayed a week if we could afford it!

What a magical place! Stunning views, and the isolation makes for fantastic star gazing. The food was fantastic, the service impeccable, and the views to die for. Loved the "off grid" feel, and the way that consideration for the environment permeated the whole experience. Truly excellent stay, thank you!

Unique setting
Superb location and personal service. The room was excellently equipped but a little on the small side. Television provided communally rather than in each room.

Wake up in Paradise
Amazingly beautiful and well run little Hotel / Lodge. Owner operated and meticulously well managed. The rooms are so well designed, you wake up in the morning seeing the sun raise from your window over the lake. The chef would likely get a Michelin Star for his food that he serves in the evening. Recommend you eat there in the evening vs. going to a local restaurant. Breakfast is equally impressive. One of the best experiences I had in NZ while traveling from North to South Island.

Beautiful eco-lodge in fantastic position
Lake Pukaki is world famous for its colour and surrounding scenery. Lakestone Lodge meets the criteria associated with the description of unique. Set on a knoll overlooking the lake and with a backdrop provided by the Mt Cook National Park, it provided us with a truly memorable experience in the heartland of New Zealand. We were in Mary’s room which was slightly larger than the other guest suites so was very spacious and extremely well appointed. Everything about the Lodge makes you use superlatives; the eco ethos is well delivered with no compromise on luxury for the guests. The lounge area with guidebooks, telescope and binos was a great area for pre-dinner drinks where you could share your days experiences. They also have a very talented chef so both breakfast and dinner were gastronomic events in their own right. Just go!

Beautiful Stay
Thank you to Mark and Anna for a beautiful lodge along Lake Pukaki. Hospitality second to none. Dinner at the lodge was outstanding compliments to the chef. Lakestone Lodge is like being at home away from home except with spectacular views. Unfortunately we did have two rainy days, you cannot predict weather. The Lodge is new and spotless. Location is secluded, closest town Twizel 10-15mins and Lake Tekapo 35-45 mins. Met some lovely people from all over the world for the two nights we were there. Would totally recommend if you want serenity.
