  • "If you have a special occasion, or want to make it a special occasion, this is the BEST PLACE IN TE ANAU to make it happen. Kerrie & Steve are perfectionists, from Gardens to facilities, to the smallest of touches like treats in the room (candles & chocolates as a few of many), these two just go out of their way to blow your mind. The place is immaculate. It’s handy to town. What more can one say. We’ll be back. Thanks so much for making our engagement unreal. Jenna & Ants"

  • "Radfords on the Lake well exceeded our expectations. All the staff were amazingly helpful and the rooms are beautifully appointed with many pleasant surprises. Nothing can be faulted with everything exceptional, from the comfortable beds, beautiful decor, immaculately clean rooms through to the manicured gardens."

  • "We have stayed here twice and really love it. The motel units are so clean and really spacious and the beds are very comfy. The staff are so friendly and lent us bug spray when we went on our boat ride and gloves when we went on our jet boat ride as it was cold. It is a great location and we definitely recommend it."

Just like you, we love our stunning Fiordland environment 💚 Caring for our local wildlife is super important for us - did you know we’re proud supporters of the Antipodes Island Parakeet, also known as the Kākāriki? Thanks to fantastic conservation efforts from our friends at Te Anau Bird Sanctuary (only a 20 minute walk from us), these special birds are being protected from extinction. It’s that time of the year to vote for Bird of the Year for 2021 - so jump on with us and vote and if you can make a donation towards their great efforts. Link in bio 📸 @nzbirdsonline

Why, meow, two-legged pals. I’m Dexter Dude, and this is my second attempt at a short news update on Te Anau from my particular purry perspective. Because despite my small stature, and my priority being snoozing in a patch of sun most of the time, I’m actually surprisingly up-to-speed with the goings on around here. On Saturday July 10th it sounds like the Kepler Track is going to be bustling. There’s a family-friendly Matariki Night Time Nature Walk to discover the forest after dark, and spot some of the delicious interesting creatures that live there. Registrations are required, so get in quick https://www.doc.govt.nz/news/events/regional-events/fiordland-events/booking-form-fiordland/ That’s all from me for the month. Catch you next time! 🐾 all my fluffy love, Dexter. #radfordsonthelake

Winter is officially here! And the beautiful stillness of Lake Te Anau is second to none at this time of the year. In fact, the whole Fiordland region is stunning this season; things are a little bit quieter outside of the peak spring and summer Great Walks and general exploration period, meaning you can take a moment to catch your breath and soak in the scenery. We’d love to host you here at Radfords on the Lake for a midwinter break. Time it with the school holidays next month to treat the kiddos to a calm, crisp Doubtful or Milford Sound experience. Or take the time to yourself – as a couple or alone – to tick this trip off your Kiwi adventure bucket list. 📸 Great South
