Rata Street Retreat S

Summary:
Take a break and unwind at this peaceful oasis. Settled about 2.5km from the centre of town gives you the freedom to relax, but also close enough to town for any activities you may indulge in.

Please note, some photos are being updated, so some items may not match exaclty to photos.

**Stays longer than 5 nights may incur additional linen or cleaning costs**

The Space:
This property is a very Kiwi style cottage with an amazing location. This rustic cottage is perfect for a family getaway. If you are booking for 8 guests in total, there is a trundle bed that will be set up.

Please note, climbing stairs is required for this property.

Guest Access:
The property is solely used for guests. The garage will be not available as the owners store their belongings there.

The Neighborhood:
This lovely oasis is nestled on a quiet street not far from sticky forest and only about a 2.5km walk to the centre of Wanaka.

Getting Around:
Getting around in Wanaka is quite easy as everything is so close. Many people walk or bike, but taxi services are also available in town if you are not driving to and from.

Other Things to Note:
This is a typical NZ cottage so there may be upgrades going on so photos will possibly not quite match until they are updated. Carpets are new as of 2024.

For stays longer than 5 nights, there may be additional linen / cleaning charges which will be discussed via Message upon booking.

Interaction with Guests:
We are a local company that looks after the property so we are here to provide any recommendations or help with any issues.
