Jill and Bill thank you for a wonderful stay at Fox Glacier! We enjoyed your hospitality,friendliness, helpful tips, clean and tidy accommodation. You've made yourself two friends from South Africa.Since we left from there we choose Bella Vista accommodation in every town we visited.(Wanaka,Oamaru,Dunedin Te Anau) and were never disappointed. Thanks a million Burga and Louis

Loved Bella VIsta Motel, the BEST that I have seen during my stay in South Island and will stay again next time in Fox Glacier. I would highly recommend Bella Vista Motel. Price is very good based on their standards. Close to all amenities. Loved the bathroom... I was very impressed. It was spacious, clean, new, had a heating rack,... More

Good standard Bellavista Motel with nice barbecue area. Usual facilities and staff very helpful, especially when price booked through Hotels.com was HIGHER than that directly at motel and Hotels.com would not honour their price match pledge. Bellavista motels were good standards throughout our stays in New Zealand but did vary slightly in facilities offered between properties. However DO NOT book... More

We arrived in Fox Glacier and had lunch at a local cafe (Lake Matheson Cafe) and the Bella Vista was recommended as the best place to stay in Fox Glacier. We weren't disappointed!!!!!!. From the time we arrived until the time we left we were given excellent service and advice about Fox Glacier attractions and our onward travel. Jill booked... More

Management came quickly to reset the power but advised that he couldn't replace the heater. No offer of a room change was given just a 'shoulder shrug'. Will not... More

Very clean and tidy little motel. Parking right in front of our door. Very close to cafes and booking office for tours etc. Good comfy bed etc. But the biggest and most pleasant suprise for us, was the little walking track into the forrest, right next to the motel. We were told to check it out after dark and wow... More

We spent one night at the Bella Vista. It cost $150. To be honest, we have paid less and had better quality. This accommodation is fairly basic and a little bit tired. Although it must be said that the bed was very comfortable and we had one of our best nights sleep as a result. As ever in NZ, the... More

It is part of a chain, but you'd never know it by the warmth and attentivness of the welcome. I stayed here on the way south and made a point of returning on my way north due both to the friendliness and value. Clean and comfortable rooms with lots of facilities. Good internet. The walks adjacent are a must do.
