Absolutely comfortable stay. Great location and chalets

Beautiful carefully crafted cottage with all the essentials for a great holiday including well equipped kitchen, spacious bathroom with hairdryer and comfortable beds. The view from the cottage porch was lovely - Karere is in a very peaceful location. Thanks for the stay!

Kahere Retreat was truly a retreat, befitting its name. The unit was cozy with comfortable beds and lots of timber fittings. The view of snowy mountains afar gave me a true alpine experience.

Beautiful setting. Nice architectural details to the hand hewed cottage. Loved the use of stained glass in the windows, local stone in the bathroom and kitchen and natural wood features creating a very comfortable environment.

Beautiful, well-appointed beachside cottage. Comfortable, nice bath.

Perfect little retreat a short distance from the Franz Josef glacier. Surrounded by beautiful mountains and a few lakes.

After a long day’s drive it was great to find this home away from home. Situated just north of Franz Josef Village proper it was an easy drive back into town for dinner. The morning views of the mountains from the sitting room were a treat.

The chalet was very neat and tidy and it was a beautiful environment. Check in and out process was super easy.

Cleverly designed cottage close to all the attractions at Franz Josef Glacier but far enough away to be peaceful.

Spectacular views. Lovely little chalet. Directions were left at the gate for our late check-in
