Set on the turquoise shores of Lake Tekapo in one of the world's few certified Dark Sky Reserves. Stargazing here is extraordinary.
Why We Chose It
Peppers Bluewater occupies a prime lakefront position at Lake Tekapo in the UNESCO-recognized Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve. The Southern Alps frame the view across the impossibly turquoise glacial lake. It's perfectly positioned for Mount Cook day trips and the famous Church of the Good Shepherd. The Dark Sky experience at night — from the deck of your room — is among the best in New Zealand.
