Auckland Youth Orchestra stayed at YHA Te Anau in July 2013 with 60+ young musicians. Player Representative on the Executive Committee and Associate Principal Cellist, Bleau Bustenera, said AYO has stayed with YHA on tour before and they always find YHA to be accommodating with fun and friendly staff.

She said, “It's not easy to provide such great accommodation and service for 60 plus teenagers and young adults all with instruments in tow! But YHA manages to do all of this and more.” Auckland Youth Orchestra has also toured in Te Anau on its last South Island Tour several years ago. Bleau said, “We enjoyed Te Anau so much, we decided to come back.”
