Great location / short walk or even shorter drive to the main village area. Apartment is great for short stay, was very clean & had all needed personal amenities available. No kitchen / cooking appliances, but this would not be an issue for short stays, as there are plenty of dining options in the village. Lake Tekapo is a great stopover location for anyone driving from Christchurch to Queenstown & if you are interested highly recommended the night tour to Mt John Observatory (with Earth & Sky).
