Conveniently located near FJ glacier and town, this cozy home offers a surprisingly spacious feel with French doors and a magnificent view. AC and comfy bed ensure a pleasant stay, while the well-maintained deck seamlessly blends into the surroundings. A peaceful retreat with ample parking and easy check-in process.

Privacy and stunning mountain views. Wheelchair accessible. Games and books provided. Short drive to restaurants and shops. Rainy weather prevented stargazing.

had an amazing stay at a cozy cabin with stunning mountain views, comfortable bed, and privacy. Loved the games and books provided. Convenient location, just a short drive to shops and restaurants. Unfortunately, the rain spoiled the night sky experience.
Flickering lights and poor shower drainage.

The location of the hotel was superb, offering stunning views of the mountains and a quiet, peaceful atmosphere. The cabin was well insulated, with comfortable beds and a cozy living room. The kitchen was well stocked and the private parking was convenient.
The turnover service between guest stays was poorly done, with stained bedding and towels, and dead bugs on multiple surfaces.

We had a fantastic stay at Alpine Escape. The accommodation was excellent - beautifully furnished, clean, and well equipped. The highlight for us was the stunning view of the glacier from our room. We were amazed by the beauty of nature right at our doorstep. Despite the small bathroom, we managed just fine and found everything we needed. The location was also perfect, close to town and surrounded by scenic beauty. we highly recommend Alpine Escape for a memorable stay.

Had an amazing Christmas stay with stunning views and a warm, cozy unit. The location was secluded and private, offering a perfect getaway. It was great to have amenities like milk, tea, and coffee provided. The self-contained unit had everything we needed, allowing us to cook our own meals. The comfortable and modern interior, filled with sunlight, added to the overall positive experience.
The size of the unit was a little small, especially the bathroom, which lacked basic amenities. It was also a bit inconvenient that the bedroom couldn't accommodate our suitcases, forcing us to keep them in the lounge.

Clean and comfortable room with kitchen facilities including salt, pepper, oil, and vinegar. Beautiful views of the mountain. Perfect for a couple.
Felt just like home, with nothing being too much trouble.

The view of Franz Josef Glacier was mind-blowingly stunning, especially when it wasn't hidden by clouds. The room was spotless and cozy, with a comfortable bed. Unlike other places I stayed in during my NZ trip, this one had a mini kitchen that was fully equipped with salt, pepper, oil, and vinegar – a super nice touch! The location was jaw-droppingly beautiful, ideal for a romantic getaway. It felt like a true alpine escape, remote and quiet, with a perfect balance of nature and convenience – just a short drive or enjoyable 40-minute walk to the township. If you're looking for a quiet place with an uninterrupted view of nature's best, I highly recommend this place. I would definitely come back and stay here anytime.
