What our guests say

Worth the visit & the money

Nothing can prepare you for Milford Sound, NZ. I have seen so many photographs etc over my years as a New Zealander, but it's pure beauty, and feeling of being in the raw wilderness, is something you have to experience yourself. The Lodge is super cosy with a high level of comfort. Such a wonderful place to wake up too.........you pull back the blinds from the floor to ceiling windows, and are greeted by magnificent mountains, native bush and sparking waters (if it is sunny). But even on a cloudy and moody day it is still amazing!  The coffee and meals are great, and the Staff are friendly and helpful.  Highly recommend for your Bucket List.
