“Kamana Lakehouse wins you over with views of Lake Wakatipu and The Remarkables from nearly everywhere, including the exclusive hot tubs; construction nearby is a temporary blip. The Nest Kitchen + Bar's local focus caps off a relaxing stay that feels both indulgent and connected to the landscape; I would gladly return.”

Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Kamana Lakehouse from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Kamana Lakehouse is favored for its nice, spacious rooms, some offering spectacular mountain views from their balconies. Guests appreciate the excellent coffee available in the rooms, and the convenience of free parking is a definite plus. Some guests have noted that the walk to the town center can be a bit of a distance. Dining at The Nest Restaurant is a highlight for many, with its high-end breakfast. It is also walking distance from a kids park.

I found the lack of soundproofing a real issue. i could hear everything from the hallway and adjacent rooms. It made relaxing difficult. the air conditioning was also faulty. It struggled to maintain a consistent temperature which was quite irritating.
