The location The bedroom lounge and bathroom are all amazing plus a hot tub with a view. The staff were great and the stargazing experience ( whilst expensive considering there were 12 o& us doing it) was informative and fun.

The villa was much nicer than I anticipated, with its own private hot tub (maybe I missed it on the booking page, but I was pleasantly surprised). The grounds are very beautiful and you can take a walk through the woods to get to a view point for the lake.

The property and the staff there gave us such unique and luxurious experience at the Mount Cook. The scenery, the meals we enjoyed in our villa was top notch.

The location would have to be up there with one of the best anywhere on the globe. The foresight of the owners to build this for travellers to enjoy is truly inspirational. The construction and interior design of each villa is testament to the respect the owners have invested in honouring the beauty of Mother Nature and this world class location. The warmth of the villas in such a crisp clean cool environment was so comforting like being wrapped in a warm blanket sitting on a cloud of pure majestic natural wonders. Without a doubt our best holiday due to location and the accommodation not to mention the hospitality and care extended by the owners of the property. It simply is a bucket list experience for rest or play.

Stayed at the Ashley-Mackenzie villa. Stunning spot, hot tun well placed with sauna and ultimate privacy. My dog who was also very much welcomed, was super comfortable in the place running around the large place - assuming chasing bunnies that pop up often, which adds to the idyllic charm of the place. Can highly reccommend.

Amazing views. The facilities are to die for, the food upstanding. They know how to make their guests feel truly special.

This retreat is truly "all class". The location is unique, peaceful and a beautiful example of rural Aotearoa. The villas are beautifully appointed accommodation. The attention to detail in the decor and the little touches is exceptional. The experience of staying at this retreat was for us very romantic, but equally it would be a wonderful place to meet up with close friends and share a high class getaway together. The food cooked by the chef is exceptional and despite this retreat being a distance from civilisation the food choices are impressive. We cannot recommend this retreat enough.
