Acheron Homestead - Te Anau Holiday Home
Drenched in sunlight and boasting mountain views from every window, this Te Anau accommodation is beautifully furnished for comfort and relaxation. After your days of exploring, kick back in one of the two dedicated living spaces, offering ample space for everyone to spread out and unwind.
Keep everyone entertained with the two Smart TVs where you can watch your favourite shows on Netflix, get into the competitive spirit with a game of pool, one of the board games, the volleyball and badminton kits, have a go at solving one of the puzzles, or enjoy the sound bar; perfect for playing your favourite tunes.
Cooking will be a breeze in the well-equipped kitchen, and the sliding glass doors create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow onto the expansive patio and lawn. Outdoor furniture will ensure sunny summer afternoons spent with family outdoors can be experienced, with the gorgeous mountains as your backdrop.
You’re sure to get a good night’s rest in one of the 4 bedrooms that comfortably accommodate up to 8 guests, with two and a half bathrooms and a washing machine that provide ample convenience during your stay.
You’ll love the quick 15-minute walk to Lake Te Anau, where you can immerse yourself in the beauty and nature that this stunning area has to offer. Practice your swing at the Te Anau Golf Club just 9 minutes away by car.
If you’re planning to bring the boat, there is plenty of parking available, and with the boat ramp a three-minute drive away, you’ll be out on the lake enjoying water sports and reeling in your catch of the day in no time.
For an unforgettable scenic day trip, grab a coffee and a takeaway lunch at one of the great local cafes on one of the provided bikes, then head to Milford Sound for some incredible sights and photo opportunities. Or for something uniquely Kiwi, take a tour from the lakefront to explore the Te Anau Glowworm Caves!
Bring the whole family and make it a holiday to remember here at Acheron Homestead!
There are two bikes available to use but guests must bring their own helmets to gain access to these.
Netflix is available

Excellent all round
The house is lovely: clean and modern. We were there for work meetings - there are two comfortable lounges with TV displays which worked very well. The property manager is very friendly and efficient. We were a group of 11 and all comfortably accommodated. Excellent experience - thank you!

Disliked: Communication
This was a great location for being in Te Anau and a short stay before going to Milford Sound. However, 2 stars because the electricity in the house short circuited at night. We tried to contact support but they said no one was available to fix the issue and was unable to be fixed until the morning leaving all of us without heat and electricity during a cold stormy night. We suspect it is because all the heaters in the bedrooms were on at the same time, which was done due to the temperature outside being freezing. There was no messaging or communication about this and there was no quick fix when the issue arose. We would recommend this place if you like the location and don't plan on using all the heaters in the rooms. Otherwise, stay away.
