Fable Terrace Downs Resort by MGallery

To be honest, we were a bit hesitant to book this property after reading a few low-rated reviews, but thank goodness we did! It turned out to be the best stay of our entire trip in New Zealand.We arrived late at night after a long drive from Fox Glacier. We had originally booked a two-bedroom unit with a special request for two separate single beds in one room. Instead of splitting the bed, the staff kindly upgraded us to a three-bedroom unit! The receptionist was so friendly and even asked about our journey. When she learned how long our trip had been, she offered us a late check-out. Such a thoughtful gesture!The property was spotless! Everything was sparkling clean, comfortable, and perfectly maintained. Every corner felt fresh and well cared for, which made our stay even more relaxing. But the highlight of all was the VIEW!!! Absolutely breathtaking! Waking up to that scenery truly made us feel like we were in a real resort!!Highly recommended! We would absolutely come back to this property whenever we visit New Zealand in the future.

We arrived late at night and got a little lost since it was completely dark. It took us more than half an hour to find our unit. Maybe we were just tired and a bit silly, lol! But honestly, it would really help if the resort added more lighting and clearer signs along the way to the units.

Great layout, large, modern, clean. Nice views. Easy access to Mount Hutt Ski Area.

Got call while skiing from staff to ask if we wanted a dinner reservation - had already said at check-in that we didn't want one, and I thought it might be an emergency call from child's ski school based on number.

Gorgeous views and well appointed villas. Played 9 holes in the wind which was challenging but fun.

The coffee could have been better.

Location - spectacular

Buildings are tired, and the gas fire in our village did not work

Stunning views, quiet atmosphere and very relaxing!

Beautiful setting, food was incredible and such an amazing atmosphere. Staff were very accommodating and friendly. Looking forward to returning!

Great location. We booked a two bedroom deluxe villa. Comfortable beds and great spa bath are a long bike ride from Christchurch. We had dinner at the restaurant which was absolutely beautiful. The staff were amazing. Great value for the price we paid. ?

The room was spacious and very clean. Amazing view from the balcony. Breakfast was awesome

Beautiful property in the country, very peaceful and picturesque. Bring your food and wine and enjoy a tranquil night or two. It is secluded a bit but has a restaurant for dinner and breakfast, make sure you make a reservation as it can fill up

The view is to die for, the spacious villa with extremely complete facilities, love the washer and dryer. The staff also incredibly friendly and the dinner was excellent and yummy:

Nothinh

The view and privacy was exceptional! The interior was lovely and beds very comfortable.

There was a lack of crockery and cooking utensils

The views were outstanding. Had the most fabulous meal in the restaurant with wonderful waitress. Loved having the coffee machine. Loved the spaciousness of the villa.

Cleanliness. Room was quite tired.

Beautiful location. Spacious apartments and great value. Also a very good restaurant on site.

Nothing to fault

The views were amazing. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable. The club house restaurant was 5 star

Lovely stay, the views are amazing and the on-site restaurant is fabulous. We had a very tasty dinner there and the prices were very reasonable as well - exceeded our expectations.Suites are spacious and reasonably priced.

Feels like they cheaped out on a few things - lovely spacious bed, but cheap polyester feeling duvet.Sky TV, but only limited channels (no movies, extended sports channels etc) - not a biggie, but if it's meant to be a luxury resort, then the small touches add up.

Beautiful facilities with a great self catering kitchen unit and enough room to house 6. We enjoyed grilled salmon and roast vegetables sourced from the famers market enroute - all facilities were great. Beds very comfortable and roomy and we love the sp bath. Provided with scrumptious continental breakfast the following morning and enjoyed the top notch golf course.

Nothing to complain about but just be wary of high winds at times when playing golf!!

View, Staff, Dinner and Breakfast were all fantastic

Every thing, staff, the cleanliness Every thing was spotless comfortable quiet and great veiw

Cause We only booked for 1 night would have stayed for a week, so no faults at all

The view the bathroom the bed the size of the whole studio

Just that where the sliders are from the bathroom to the bedroom was Extremely dusty otherwise everything was perfect

Larger villa. Two bedroom while we only needed one.
