The hotel (1 bedroom unit) was incredible. Super clean, modern yet felt like home. Furniture incredibly comfortable as was the bed. The towels and sheets all top level too. They have a shuttle that runs you to the center of town on the hour that was never too crowded that they couldn't accomodate. The views were stunning with a large balcony with seating overlooking lake tekaipu.

We would definitely stay at the Rees again. The view is splendid. We had a lovely dinner on Friday night; perfect for us since we had just arrived and didn't want to go out of the hotel. In fact, the only criticism is the breakfast which is a little challenging. Small room, too many guests, not enough staff...

8/10 Very good

The hotel offers beautiful lake views, which is definitely its highlight. However, it was a bit disappointing that the property has a large number of rooms and feels somewhat mass-produced. The buildings appear to be made with inexpensive metal materials, which gave it an atmosphere similar to large housing complexes in Japan rather than a refined resort.
