Clean, modern, in a fruit orchard. We were there early spring so no fruit available. This was a last minute booking and we were stunned by the place!

We stayed for three nights on a skiing holiday as a winter break. The accommodation was very warm and spacious. The location is out of town but there is a shuttle which we appreciated.

This cottage is amazing with gorgeous views of vineyards, and a pond with ducks! The restaurant food was delicious, and the Explorer red wine was fantastic! Then, driving to Queenstown, we stopped at the Bungy Jump spot to take photos, and walked on the bridge to talk to the jumpers!

This motel is very up to date and well maintained. Our room was spacious, the kitchen is well equipped, and there is a beautiful sitting area outside for a glass of wine after a day of hiking or sightseeing. It is located within a short walk to the center of Wanaka, with easy access to restaurants and supermarkets.
The Wanaka area offers many day trip options to hiking trails, Roys Peak track, the Rob Roy glacier, outdoor recreation, and more. This is one place in our 18 days on the South...

Staff was helpful. Clean, comfortable, everything we needed. Clearly organized, and meticulous attention to detail. I needed an extra pillow and management was quick to respond.
Lovely environment, although outdoor furniture in our room could be easily improved. Loved the small town and downtown area. A four square grocery was a 3 minute walk.. and we enjoyed a hot chicken for dinner. We managed to plate it and enjoy that as a light dinner in the mini kitchenette space. One evening we...
