The digital check in was awesome and the place is new so it's all felt very nice. Laundry was easy to use too, and there's a nice lounge to chill at. Amazing place just minutes from the town centre. Comfy room and great design.

Our room is large and clean. About a 10 minute walk to the town center. We had to change our itinerary because the road to Franz Josef was closed at Haast Pass due to slips and slumps. I was having trouble reaching our next hotel to let them know we would arrive a day late. Mark very kindly lent me his landline to use. Mark and Jacqui are wonderful hosts!

Wanaka is very scenic and much quieter than Queenstown.

Wanaka is very scenic and much quieter than Queenstown. If you have a car there are lots of site seeing trips you can do such as going up to the end of the lake, or over to Lake Hawea and going up the Haast Pass Road to the Blue Pool. It’s such a peaceful place and very beautiful.

Wanaka is a stunning town. The views are amazing. The restaurants and bars are great and so much variety. It is definitely worth a visit for a couple nights. Ramen Ramen was delicious, the spicy pork was the best I have had in a long time.

Wanaka is a beautiful town and one of our favourite places...

Wanaka is a beautiful town and one of our favourite places on the trip. We loved the stunning views of Lake Wānaka, the Clutha River and the surrounding mountains. The scenery is breathtaking, with so many wonderful places to explore. We also enjoyed trying some great local food for the first time. What made our visit even more special was meeting some wonderful people who helped us when we had a flat tyre. Their kindness helped us avoid a potentially dangerous situation, and having someone come to fix the tyre on a Saturday night was truly amazing. We are so grateful for their help and generosity. Wanaka is also conveniently close to Cardrona Ski Field, making it a perfect base for our adventures. We would love to return one day.

Wanaka is in a a beautiful part of the world in the Southern Lakes region of New Zealand's South Island on the edge of an alpine lake surrounded by majestic scenery. Offering skiing, sky diving, glacier landings, cycle tracks, wine trails, fishing, nature walks and some superb dining options and that's not all; Wanaka has something for everyone.

Location - close to hotel, takeaway shop, 4 square grocery shop and liquor store. All within 2 min walk. Quite unique that we entered the room via a door outside into the room and then you walk past bed and ensuite to another door which leads into a big communal area with well appointed kitchen and tv lounge. Wanaka was very busy but it was quiet at this hotel/lodge. We paid cash for our bond so when ready to leave they inspected our room and cash returned on the spot. Very good. Bed and pillows were comfortable.

We were so impressed with this accommodation. The hosts provided such clear and efficient communication, the apartment was tidy, the heating was amazing as our stay was in August and the accommodation was stocked with everything we needed. Parking was easy and location was great and a close walk to the Cardrona Hotel. Highly recommend!
