We loved staying at these apartments! They were spacious and comfortable and a great place to stay while visiting Mt Cook. They had everything we needed and it was so nice to use the BBQ

Twizel is a great base for all the wonderful activities the region has to offer--dark skies, Alps to Ocean, Āoraki, incredible lakes, hot springs, hiking. A lot of very good restaurants with something for all tastes. Two or more grocery stores, with great wine selections and customer service. Great outfitters for biking.

We have been here a few times now and love it. It is the gateway to Mt Cook - we have done a heli hike, some wonderful walks and tramps, taken in the rivers and lakes, soaked in the hot tubs, eaten at local restaurants, shopped in the local stores, star gazed .... the list goes on.
The locals are super friendly - Twizel is just down the road from Tekapo but is nowhere near as busy or commercial. Accessible from Christchurch or Queenstown - you can fly into one, rent a car and fly out from the other, or just do a round trip. We will be back !!

Restaurants and cafes very busy and some were closed. Since it was Easter Sunday and the finish of Warbirds Airshow, we had difficulty finding somewhere to have dinner and certainly no place for breakfast.

Twizel is a small town but growing, with new housing areas on the edge of town and spreading out from there. It is mainly a holiday town but has a core of permanent residents.
It has a nice wee shopping area, good restaurants and is handy to the other lakes in the area and to a ski field in winter. It also gives easy access to Aoraki Mt Cook and the Waitaki Valley.

Cute town.
Cute town. It has what one needs to enjoy the getaway—groceries, pharmacy, gas, some clothing stores. And, most importantly, nice people who—in spite of the numbers of tourists who are in and out of town—are kind and helpful. Thank you, Twizel!

Nice little place with easy access by car to several lakes and the Hooker Valley walk. Nice river walk with views to Mt Cook.
Twizel has few tourists that we saw and has a very different feel to it than Tekapo, which we didn’t like at all.
We didn’t eat out in Twizel, but we did see a few restaurants, we cooked at the house as had great facilities there.
Good supermarkets.
Thank you so much Jordan and Twizel Getaways for the marvelous, awesome and unique stay you offered us during our time in the surroundings of Aoraki/Mt. Cook. Everything was perfect! Pity we booked The Cabin Omahau Downs for such a short time. Next time in South NZ it will definitely be longer :-)
It was a fantastic stay! The cabin was even better than we imagined! It was a proper, spacious room. The bathroom was good, clean kitchen and all the necessary kitchen stuff. The sound insulation was also good, so the sound of life of the holiday park was always outside the room.
Nice location fairly close to Mt Cook and Twizel. A cool setup right behind the plane hangar. A spacious room with a king bed - a rare sight in New Zealand's countryside. Easy self check-in with a lockbox - no need to worry about arriving late
Clean, tidy, spacious unit. Cosy and warm. People in Twizel were very friendly and helpful with information about things to do and where to eat.
Would definitely go back and would stay at Colonial Motel again.
Modern and clean house in Twizel. There is a skylight in the main bedroom for star viewing, which would have been awesome if we had a clear night. Kitchen was spacious and the bathroom had a great shower!
This was the perfect stay for our one night stay in Twizel! The rooms were clean and comfortable, and very convenient for our hike the next morning. I would stay here again!
As close as we could get to aoraki to do Hooker track. Twizel is well serviced but very expensive. The staff were good and contacted us when we left something behind.
