    The bedrooms and bathroom were large and there was a TV in each of the three bedrooms. The unit was almost surrounded by native plants and trees.

    It was warm, welcoming, and close to town. The bedrooms are luxurious, and the bathroom is huge. I have disabled friends, and it is great to see accommodation that I can recommend to them in places that they have yet to visit.

Situated in central Franz Josef and completed in 2019, our 3 bedroom house is surrounded by forest yet a short distance from the Waiho hot tubs, Glacier Guides, iSite, restaurants and all the village of Franz Josef has to offer. Each bedroom contains a queen and single bed and a door leading onto a small deck. There is one bathroom with a shower and toilet in the same room. There is an equipped kitchen and dining area.
Hi my names Elliot and I'm a local. I enjoy the beautiful surroundings and friendly community that Franz Josef offers. I'm happy to provide advice about our area.
Franz Josef Village is most famous for its Glacier and rain forest surroundings. It also offers several nice restaurants and various activities including helicopter tours, hot tubs, hikes, live kiwi experiences and green stone carving.
