New Contemporary Studio Escape

Wānaka

"Our stay at the New Contemporary Studio Escape in Wānaka was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how thoughtfully designed and beautifully presented the space was. It strikes the perfect balance between modern luxury and a warm, inviting atmosphere — every detail feels intentional. The studio itself is spotless, stylish, and incredibly comfortable. The bed was amazing, the finishes were high-end, and everything we needed was right there. It felt...

Top Wānaka Hotel Reviews

Clearbrook Motels Wanaka

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place, had everything we needed and very close to town. Would definitely stay here again"

Alpine Motel

8/10 Good

"The room was spotless except for a strong smell from leftover food in the microwave which the cleaner hadn’t checked. The beds were very comfortable and the location was close to the town centre. However, there was a bright light outside the door that couldn’t be switched off . The light gets through the gap between the curtain and the window. Which was quite annoying. Besides that, everything was fine."

Wanaka Luxury Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"We did run late for check in and it was great to have the keys ready for us by the reception desk without the need for interaction. In that way, it was all very discreet and we didn't have much interaction with the staff at the property having made the booking via Hotels.com We were celebrating a special occasion with family and all stayed at the property which was an ideal location to both Cardrona and the night hum of Wanaka. We were able to escape to ski during the day and meet up at the outdoor fireplace in the evening, with everything we needed to get the fire going provided thoughtfully. The servicing of our rooms was seamless and the lodge feel of the property had the perfect winter vibe. The water pressure in the showers was outstanding and just what we needed after a frosty day on the slopes to ensure that we were all warm and comfortable. We did have a neighbourhood cat that wanted to make friends and we were happy to oblige! Both the cat and ourselves enjoyed the provision of milk, finding that other properties we stayed at, did not offer this convenience. Thank you taking care of all the things that make a great winter getaway"
