Enjoy the convenient location of this two bedroom cottage which is within a two minute walk from the village centre. Relax in the sunny living area while looking out on the gorgeous garden and mountain views. Keep warm in the colder months with the warmth of a fireplace or heatpump and in summer time open the doors out onto the patio which also provides the perfect spot for checking out the night sky.
Choose to prepare your own meals in the fully equipped kitchen or talk a short track down to one of the local cafes and restaurants. Two bedrooms make it perfect for small groups or family traveling together. Take the opportunity to have fresh clean clothes on holiday with the use of the laundry facilities. Rifugio has everything you need to enjoy time away in one of NZ’s most beautiful locations.

Highly recommend this place if you’re staying in Tekapo. Beautiful view from the house, easy to walk to restaurants and the lake. House was well stocked with extra blankets, cooking implements, board games and movies. There’s even a washer and dryer which we used to do laundry.

A lovely and beautifully place to stay! We spent 4 nights in this beautiful house with a lovely yard planted with kinds of flowers. It was really quiet and will able to watch full sky of stars at night.

This is a house where we could relax and catch our breath in a calm atmosphere-the warmth of the fire was especially nice. Plenty of homely 80’s style things around to make older folk feel at home. Everything a family of four would need to cook their own meals. The bath was really welcome.
