We could not have asked for a better stay
We could not have asked for a better stay at Mount Cook Lakeside retreat. My wife and I spent 2 nights to start off our Honeymoon in New Zealand in March 2023. Everything you could need was on site so there was no need to leave! We spent our time relaxing on our villa patio overlooking the mountains and exploring the grounds. From delicious meals delivered to our villa and playing tennis with an incredible view of Mt. Cook to star gazing and dining with our hosts and other guests [...]

Absolutely beautiful place to stay
Absolutely beautiful place to stay, can’t fault it. Luke was an amazing host, and we are so grateful for his compassion and helpfulness especially when mum unfortunately had a medical emergency in the middle of the night during our stay.

I would return here often❤️ highly recommend.
Our stay was just too short. Luke, Lauren and Rafa were all the best hosts. The location, the food, the bed, the fireplace… it was all so dreamy! If I didn’t live 20,000km away I would return here often❤️ highly recommend.

Food was excellent
Superbly located luxury accommodation on the shores of Lake Pukaki.

Dinner was served in your own Villa and delivered by the chef fresh every night. Both dinners we had the food was excellent and it was lovely to eat whilst looking out onto the Lake [...]

The photos do not do it justice, this place is a hidden paradise. So secluded, peaceful, and absolutely stunning! We stayed at the Ashley Mackenzie villa, where we also had our elopement ceremony (if you are looking at the elopement package, do consider upgrading to the AMV!!). The villa is impeccable and the staff are so friendly and helpful (a special thank you to Thatianna)! The food was to die for (and the chef, Rafa, was so knowledgeable and friendly!) [...]
