Beautiful view of lake from every room. Extra amenities such as heated tiles in bathroom floor and beautiful soaps. And heated bed if you wished.

The room was very cold. Some rooms doesn’t have heater. There are three bedrooms, including 2 queens, 3 twin beds but only 4 dining chairs and one love seat sofa.

located right across from the lake, beautiful view from the room. steps away from downtown are restaurants. bed was comfortable.
the bathroom was bizarre. sink was really low, about 24” high, the bath spigot stuck out in the middle of the wide wall with the controls on the other wall. no towel and trash service. if you can overlook a weird bathroom, and a bit of self-service, the view and the rest is pretty nice.

Nothing to dislike

Location was divine! Close to everything with a brilliant view! Also very clean with a neat little kitchenette, good for self catering.
I chose the room because it advertised a bath. There was both a photo of one and it also showed bath in the room details.
When I got there (we were last of day to check in) they had allocated us the disabled bathroom. On inquiring they shrugged and said there was nothing they could do.
My guess us that happens everyday.
Last in gets the disabled access room and there is nothing else to change to.
Don’t get me wrong it was clean with plenty of towels and hot water, just quite ugly with a tiny sink with no vanity, a toilet and large curtained shower that got the floor quite wet and didn’t dry over night.
We had to keep toiletries on the floor or out of the bathroom.
I’m annoyed that not only did they not apologise, but there is no where on the web site that explains there is a disabled bathroom that you might end up with.
Surely this could be sold separately and last?
I feel cheated and deceived by this experience.

Great location, can walk to everything in Wanaka
Beds were too hard and uncomfortable, the room is a little overpriced for what you get. Old furniture, damaged tv cabinet, bathroom door had dirty marks on it. Can find brand new apartments for the same amount of money or less than what this room was priced at

Nice view n cosy apartment.

Great location and views! The room was very spacious. Amenities were great
4.5
Excellent location. Everything is neatly laid out, especially the kitchen utensils. Comprehensive provision of tools and utensils for simple meal prep.
Access to Netflix was a delight. So was the provision of a coffee plunger and coffee grounds.
Price for 3 nights stay was on the high side.
4.5
It was a quiet location.
We booked a one bedroom apartment and arrived to have the main bedroom closed off and we had to have the too small secondary bedroom. Lounge curtains left several metres uncovered at the top and let in awakening early morning light. Ventilation and extraction of steam in bathroom was insufficient and had generated mould on the ceiling and tile grouting. Although relatively new the apartment had scratches and legally damages which required repair.Our back apartment was up a long steep driveway making walking access from street a restriction.

Great unit so close to town. Very clean warm unit. Would totally recommend.
