A beautiful, comfortable and cosy studio to explore Wanaka with everything you could need for a short-stay. The host went out of her way to ensure we had what we needed, including an early check-in as my partner had a migraine. Hassle-free parking, a short and enjoyable stroll into town. We would happily stay here again.

Nuria

From

Belgium

The little house was amazing! Clean, well maintained and clearly owned by people who love/respect their property. It was modern and comfortable. I liked the fact that it had a kitchenette instead of a kitchen because some guests cook like there is no tomorrow and make everything smell so bad. This accomodation smelled fresh and clean. The location is excellent! So close to the beach and in a very cute neighborhoud. The garden (and its privacy) is the cherry on top!

What guests said about Wanaka:

We were in Wanaka to hike French Ridge.

We were in Wanaka to hike French Ridge. Unfortunately, the snow line was too low and deep, so we made the call to turn back. It was a 30km day, but we loved being in Mt Aspiring National Park. The following day we hiked Mt Isthmus, a definite leg workout but the views made it worthwhile. Some of our party then took a dip in Lake Wanaka to ease the muscles! There are plenty of food options and bars too within easy reach to suit all pockets. Such a fabulous part of the country.

Very Pretty,lots of places to have a coffee or drinks,enjoyed a drink on the waterfront looking at a amazing view,also scenic drive to Lake Hawea and went as far as the lookout when the road takes you to top of Lake Wanaka.Would of loved to had more time to do some short walks.

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.

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.

It had all the facilities you would want. was so good we wanted to stay for a few more days, but unfortunately it was already booked.

Everything was perfect! Location couldn’t be better! A really cozy apartment with a fireplace for cold times and an A/C to fight the intense heat of summer. Excellent kitchen with everything one may need. Super good and modern shower. A deck with a wooden table and chairs with the lake view for meals outside. And of course a super friendly host! Definitely the best hotel among all those that we stayed in during out trip on the South Island!
