We absolutely loved our stay at Radfords on the Lake in Te Anau. From the moment we arrived, it was the finer details that really stood out and made the experience special. The rooms were immaculate, beautifully presented and incredibly comfortable, with stunning lake views to wake up to each morning. The little touches throughout the apartment showed how much care and thought has gone into making guests feel welcome and relaxed. Perfectly located, peaceful and luxurious without feeling pretentious. We only wish we could have stayed longer.
staff were very helpful. facilities were very good.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was spotless, view of the lake & park are awesome, co-owner was wonderful with excellent recommendations for things to do, landscaping is beautiful, location is excellent with the lake right in front of you as well as trails, and downtown was an easy 5 minute walk on sidewalks or through the park. Highly recommend the Radford.
Amazing place to stay . Wonderful check in , great recommendations for dinner, beautiful view, fluffy towels , comfortable bed , soft robes. Wish we could have stayed longer !!
This is the best one night stop if visiting Te Anau for a short stay! All the bells and whistles for a luxury stay. On the lakefront, walkable to the village and has a knowledgeable hostess with so many tips for the best places to eat and play! Thank you ☺️
Clean, comfortable, courteous. Very spacious. Gorgeous view. Easy walk to town and to boat for “glowworms”- wish we had more time there! Would definitely stay here again.
We really enjoyed our stay here- the view of the lake is beautiful and it’s conveniently located. The staff is very friendly and helps provide recommendations for restaurants/things to do. I highly recommend this place.
