Location was easy walk to town and close to the lake

Mrsha United States of America

We stayed 6 nights and enjoyed our time. Pip was so great and helpful. She brought us a bottle of wine upon arrival and helped make dinner reservations. The view from our room was just beautiful, such a great location. The bedroom was very well insulated because with windows and door closed, we could not hear the loud voices of our neighbors (they only stayed one night). The strange plumbing noise was quickly fixed when brought to Pips attention. We will definitely stay here again when in Wanaka.

Patricia United States of America

Very nice staff! Wonderful location and view of lake wanaka. The rooms are not big, but the shower, toilet and sink are seperate so it's great for group of travellers to share.

Rosetta_chen China

Just face the big park and lake. Walk distance to supermarket and town centre.

Leonie New Zealand

Love this motel, have stayed before. Quiet, comfy beds, good kitchen. Easy short walk to the lake and town. Friendly staff. Nice they leave you alone but are always there to help. Would stay again.

Heidi New Zealand

Within walking distance of the town center. Beautiful views of the lake and mountains. Great facilities. Very friendly staff.

Kevin New Zealand

Great room and view. Staff presence was intentionally minimal which was quite new for us but also made the experience a lot more homely. Loved it.
