We had asked in advance of making the reservation about having an early breakfast so as to go to the glacier walk which starts at 8:35am. When we checked in the wife gave us a rushed intro to the room and informed us that breakfast was at 8am. She was quite adamant about it although her husband who was actually... More

My boyfriend and I stayed two nights at Misty peak. We arrived in the dark and were warmly welcomed by Dave with a glass of wine, and cheese. We arrived just in time to put our order in for dinner and we decided to stay put. Dinner was lovely, shared with other guests, we swapped our NZ travel adventures. We... More

You can categorize Misty Peaks as Hotel or Home Stay but it is perfect in either category. The location is perfect for one whom plan to visit Lake Matheson at sun rise or sun set and also close to Fox Glacier's town center. I recommended you have dinner at the hotel. I love both my dinner and breakfast here. More

Stayed at Misty Peaks with two friends as part of a roadtrip of the South Island, NZ, and left feeling very much at home. Lee and Dave put on an excellent spread, from wine and cheese of an evening to a full breakfast the next day and provided entertaining conversation at night (when we weren't glued to the property's wi-fi!)....

No need to say much because all the positive things has been said in the previous reviews which made us choose this place. Lea and Dave are a wonderful couple and made our stay very enjoyable. Nice, clean, homey,good food and fantastic scenery. Highly recommended. More

Thanks Lea and Dave for making me feel so welcome in your luxury B+B. All your recommendations for sites - late Mathieson at Dawn and Gillespie Beach at sunset - and restauarants were spot on. I'll be recommending your place to everyone I meet despite the tea-making skills (!). More

My wife and I stayed at Misty Peaks in January 2012 for 2 nights. Sadly, the weather in Fox was poor during our stay but there was little hosts Dave and Lea could do about that! Misty Peaks is just 2 or 3 minutes away from the center of Fox Glacier and is therefore ideally sited if you are planning... More

We had a great couple of nights at Misty Peaks, Lea and Dave were brilliant hosts, warm and friendly, plenty of local knowledge, and Dave is a fine cook. Our room was spacious, the location is superb with fantastic views of the mountains. We were also treated to some great sunsets! We had 2 nights in Fox, and visited both... More

Misty Peaks is an upmarket B&B in Fox with a great Kiwi host called Dave. From the moment we arrived, when he made us a welcome cup of tea, to the time we left when he helped us quickly on our way to catch the TranzAlpinea train, he could not do enough for us. The unexpected treat was ' dinner... More
