Kamana Lakehouse

a month ago

We had an excellent stay at Kamana Lakehouse. From the initial booking of the two rooms required with assistance from the Hotel direct, to the staff throughout our entire 6/7 day stay, we couldn't fault the Hotel overall. Both rooms were in the main building and had side views towards the town centre which was great. The breakfast setup each morning was excellent and of high-quality. No issues parking our hire car each day on the property after travelling out and about. The bar area was also really nice to unwind and have a few drinks and bar food if need be. They have these four long open heaters which create a really great ambience. The rooms were quiet, well appointed and very comfortable. The staff across all areas (particularly the breakfast crew) were really great throughout our stay and we really enjoyed the overall experience and Hotel.

Away from the town centre but in an elevated position with dining room views over the lake - the hotel has much going for it. Comfortable rooms, many with a lake view at a premium. Breakfast a bit confusing with 'ordering' of most elements, but limited cereal / fruit buffet selection. Evening meal has a range of options - the taster menu with matched wine is a good effort, but the restaurant area does not feel in any way special, private or upmarket. Efficient front desk staff and comfortable rooms. Adequate parking and taxi's/Uber available. Tour buses pick up from the hotel. Hot tub is a disappointment - simple warm water tub with top view - but free. Rather less private access in. bathrobes.. New developments of apartments down the hill will impact experience and some of the view, but building noise not found to be intrusive. Would visit again aware of potential issues.

To be aware: The rooms look out directly onto the main car park of the accomodation. Ignoring the construction (which for us wasn't a major deal), it was a real bummer to arrive and find out that anyone using the carpark would be able to see into our room. The option was either closing the curtains to have privacy (and not being able to see the lovely mountains) or leaving the curtains open (in which case everyone could see into our room). Additionally, staff were not super responsive when we mentioned a few small issues (coffee machine broken, requesting information about the hot tub).
