Quirky and lovely “cabin” with great view of Lake Wakatipu and good access to some nearby hikes. The cabin was beautiful and had all the bells and whistles and tech amenities you could want. Loved the idea of the full screen and TV but we couldn’t bear to bring down the shade on that great view, so decided TV was not a priority. Loved the hot tun shared only by the few cabins. Took advantage of yoga in the yurt and dinners on the property (not many other dining options nearby!)

Unique

The new cabins are excellent. The fit out and amenities are great, and the views over Dart and the Lake, to the mountains opposite are incredible. Service was great, thanks to Em for providing an easy check-in process and Harry for creating a great dinner. So pleased we decided to stay...and we will be back on our next visit to NZ.

We stayed at Ecoscapes for one night, and that was not nearly enough time. We checked in and were immediately made to feel at home. The owner made us feel special and provided us with fresh cream for our tea and coffee for the morning. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. My only regret was that we could only spend one night. Amazing!!

One of the most unique places we’ve experienced and stayed in NZ. Just amazing. Staff couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. I’m loathed to write this review as more people will then uncover this place (!) but truthfully it’s next level and very cool.

We've been traveling around NZ for three months and this was among the more expensive but the worst we've encountered. It consists of two cabins which are wedged between the owner's hotel (Kinlock hotel) and their house. There is little privacy (owners can see you from a few meters away if you're on your terrace or in the jacuzzi) and no landscaping (you're between an unkempt garden and their house with personal effects such as a lawnmower, cages etc). The food was terrible (all frozen / reheated) but it's far from anything else. The
