Vacation rentals with a hot tub in Franz Josef / Waiau

The outdoor bathtub with a view of the mountains is just incredible. The rest of the place was so comfortable and completely spotless. So many little details were thought about, like a big citronella candle for outside, bath salts, loose leaf tea and biscuits. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Incredible stay at Jody’s, the location was incredible at the foot of the mountains with views down to the lake. Jody had lots of great recommendations, including great hikes and good restaurants in town. It was the perfect place for us to unwind after a big hike, the spa pool was a huge bonus! Thank you Jody!

We loved our stay here. It was walking distance to everything and had beautiful views of the mountain. Allan gave us great recommendations for places to visit around Franz Josef. We would definitely stay again.

A unique and special experience! Outdoor bath in the moonlight was definitely a highlight. Kath, Dan and family were friendly and welcoming.

Kath and Dan were great Hosts, they went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The weather was wild but the cottage was warm and cosy. We will recommend teapot cottage to friends and family and will definitely stay again if in the area.

Fabulous pod, very clean, comfortable bed and great shower. Lovely campsite on the beach, excellent sunset photos. Great pizza van in the evening if required. Fantastic stay and would highly recommend a visit.

A beautiful little house. High level toiletries, coffee, tea, crockery. The wine and chocolates were appreciated. The house is advertised as secluded but the other house is only meters away and easily seen from the deck. The lake is more a dam and as far as we could see only calf deep - not at all suitable for swimming. Nowhere to unpack or store clothes. A few kilometres from Franz Josef township.

Great relaxing stay after a long road trip. The place was the perfect oasis for our family. Judith was a great host- thank you.

From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the serene surroundings & the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The hut was spotless, beautifully designed & equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Thoughtful touches, such as cozy furnishings & well-placed amenities, made us feel right at home. The location was perfect—peaceful yet conveniently close to local attractions. Waking up to breathtaking views was a highlight & enjoying our morning coffee in such a tranquil setting was truly refreshing. The outdoor space was equally delightful, offering a great spot to unwind & take in the natural beauty. Judith was an exceptional host, providing clear communication & ensuring we had everything we needed. Her attention to detail & genuine hospitality made our experience even more special. This stay exceeded our expectations in every way. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing getaway or a cozy overnight retreat, this property is a perfect choice. Highly Recommended!
