Welcome

Lakeside Motel is superbly sited on the shore of Lake Te Anau commanding a spectacular view of the lake and mountains, amongst a large magnificent garden of established trees, rhodendrons, camellias, roses, spring bulbs, summer annuals and many other special plants.

Superior quality units are of varying styles and decor - all with full kitchens and ensuite bathrooms.

Lakeside Motel is your number 1 choice for accommodation while visiting Milford Sound, Doubtful Sound and other Fiordland sights like tramping and walking, fishing, kayaking, relaxing in the garden or the many other activities that this spectacular region has to offer.

Te Anau is the gateway to the world-famous Fiordland National Park, a World Heritage Area covering nearly 1.2 million hectares.

Fiordland represents nature on a grand scale, where waterfalls tumble hundreds of metres into pristine, forested valleys, and glacier-carved fiords indent its coastal boundaries.

We pride ourselves on having the most breathtaking and affordable view in Te Anau.  A mere 25 metres separates us from the lake edge, and a short 5 minute lake side stroll to the town centre.
