Great home for families
We enjoyed our stay. It was comfortable and warm. We were pleasantly surprised to see a bit of the glacier from one of the bedroom windows on a clear day. Close to restaurants and other touristy things. The host was very accomodating of our requests :)

The property was very clean, had good facilites and was very spacious. If we're being picky, a recycle bin would have been useful as we had to collect up our recyclables and take to the local supermarket

Brilliant stay!
Perfectly located for visiting the glaciers area, even a view of the glacier from the kitchen window! Spacious, comfortable house with everything you could need. Susan was unbelievably helpful both before visiting and after, helping us to be reunited with some things we had accidentally left behind - definitely went above and beyond!

Convenient to Franz Joseph
We stayed 2 nights in this comfortable house which is an easy walk to everything in the town of Franz Joseph: restaurants, some local tracks, and experience providers. Good location to drive to Fox Glacier area as well.

Comfortable and roomy
The house was spacious and comfortable. There were plenty of room in the lounge room. Located close to restaurants. Beautiful area. Only one issue was the location of laundry, access from the outside around the other side of house difficult when raining. Overall fantastic stay.

Nice large place in the centre of the town. No issues with property owner themselves. However, neighbouring properties appear to be abandoned or in a state of disrepair

Perfect location, great house perfect for kids
As per title. Great experience great place and love the town. Owner came at exactly 10am to see if we we're out of the property yet which was a bit stressful (esp with 2 kids to clean up after), as we were running about 5-10 mins behind.

Home located in best location of town with activities and food within 2 minute walk. When I booked long b4 NZ opened I thought inside would be more dated. Home was modern, stylish, spacious And clean. Sheets were amazing - as if they’d been starched and pressed! Note that toilet is separate space from shower.

Great location
House is conveniently located right in the middle of the Franz Josef township. Most restaurants are in walking distance and the glacier view and other attractions are only a few minutes drive. The accommodation can comfortably house 6 people. Amenities can be improved for a more comfortable stay but they are adequate currently. Communication with the owner was timely and clear. Overall, a pretty good stay.
