Manager was very helpful with suggestions and things to do. Room was well appointed and under floor heating was an excellent touch in winter. We didn't cook but facilities looked good for a longer stay. Clean, good WIFI, short walk to town centre. Overall a great experience.

    Wanaka is a great little town.

    Wanaka is a great little town. Primarily a stepping stone to the ski resorts. However we did not go the the resorts. We did do a day trip to Blue Pools and the nearby waterfalls (Thunder falls). the drive was scenic and the pools were well worth having a look at. Thunderfalls is certainly a photo spot as well. We circled back to wanaka and had a look at the Wanaka tree. Its a great picture just prior to sunset as the branches of the tree have and orangy color to them.

    We really enjoyed our brief visit in Wanaka with great places to eat for the whole family. The transport Museum was outstanding but allow at least half a day to spend there and also visit the nearby Puzzle Park for the kids

    Wanaka is a beautiful place, the magnificent scenery , ease to get around and the variety of food options makes it a place to meet a variety of experiences. Cycling along the tracks looked like a exciting option for getting around. Puzzling World was a great family outing and is worth a visit. The illusion rooms are fun and the maze was a great fun challenge.

    Wanaka is stunning.

    Wanaka is stunning. We were there in Autumn and with the leaves changing colour it made for amazing photos. A visit to the Lake Wanaka for the world most photograph tree is a must. Puzzle World is fun and worth the visit. The Wanaka Lavender farm was beautiful and the farm animals is a plus.

    Has come of age in recent years.

    Has come of age in recent years. For older NZ’ers it offers a much more relaxed experience than nearby Queenstown and still has plenty to see and do. The approach from the West Coast through Mt Aspiring reserve can only be described as spectacular. In the fine weather exit over the Crown Range via Cardrona also fits this category.

    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!

    This was a great stay, easy to find, very well presented. The house is all to yourself and the bedrooms are very spacious and the double bathroom is a huge win for any families. 5 minute drive into town and various lake entrances. Facilities were great, comfortable furniture and feels like a home more than a hotel / accommodation.

    Great value for money, there was a washing machine and drier included which was really valuable for us as we were mostly in a campervan but just wanted a luxury indoor night. Super close to Wanaka. An awesome base for a family if its in your budget. Clean but not pretentious. Well stocked kitchen.
