We stayed at Island View Place as a group of 12 - 6 adults and 6 children (18 months - 8 years). Everything about our stay was amazing. The house is a great size for large groups, with plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen was excellent to cook in and well equipped with everything we needed. The pantry was stocked on arrival and included fresh fruit and milk etc to cover our needs before we went to the grocery shop. The house was heated when we arrived at night and the fireplace was the central place for both kids and adults to relax at the end of each day. Wonderful views of the snow covered mountains and Lake Wanaka. We loved every minute at Island View Place and would definitely stay there again.

We love the South Island, have been visiting since 1988. The Wanaka area remains our favorite place to spend a relaxing 2 week stay, and IVP continues to be our preferred rental. We stayed 10 days in 2023, and 2 weeks this Feb (was already reserved by others pre and post stay dates, so couldn't stay longer). Owner had added a mini-split A/C, heat pump to the upstairs master, which tremendously improved the comfort during those sunny afternoons! Also added power shades in upstairs landing. These were the only noteworthy downsides we had experienced on the previous stay. The neighborhood is absolutely wonderful: quiet, many walking paths, greenbelts, friendly residents, upscale etc. Plenty of day hike opportunities in the Wanaka area. We prepared most of our meals, drank good Pinot, and enjoyed the wonderful dinners enjoying the views from the patio or dining room. The most relaxing vacation we have had in years - lived almost like the locals! Also very important to note: even though they have a wonderful local contact (Sabine), the owner still checked on us even while she was awaiting evacuation orders from her main residence above Christchurch due to large grass/forest fire in her neighborhood. We will not hesitate to stay at IVP again

We loved IVP! The views were stunning and the house was oh so beautiful. We all cook and found the kitchen to be well equipped. We used the bikes, yoga mat and pool. Five stars all around on this VRBO!

Place is just amazing, view was great, close proximity to central part of Wanaka. House was beautifully designed and lots and lots of space for the whole family (7 adults 2 kids). Kitchen is huge, with 2 dishwashers, modern facilities. Living space with the fire place was wonderful. Lots of board and card games for the family when too cold to get out. Sitting space front and back. Dedicated washing and dryer room. The garage with a whole list of sports facilities - bicycles, boots hanging rack. Julianne was very helpful in providing prompt response and got back to us when we needed help. Pricey for us but well worth it.

Could not have asked for a more comfortable and well equipped house ( mountain bikes even provided!). The views from the living area and bedrooms were stunning, the kitchen was well equipped and the fireplace was most enjoyable especially when sitting in those fabulous sheepskin beanbags. Highly recommended.

I can't say enough about this property. We booked it long in advance, and our host was quick and excellent with communication throughout the process. This property is beautiful, spacious, and has just about everything you need to have a good time during your stay. The floorplan is gorgeous and thoughtfully designed. It has stellar views of Lake Wanaka and the surrounding mountains. The kitchen is well-equipped and the furnishings are excellent and comfortable. It is in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood with other gorgeous homes nearby. The internet worked great from all rooms, and the air conditioning worked quickly and well when and if it was needed. Even though we were there in the heart of the summer, we didn't need to use the air conditioner much because there was always a fresh, gentle afternoon breeze blowing and we had the windows wide open to let the fresh breeze cool the house. Having the bikes in the garage were great. We used them often. It you like to walk or bike, the trails begin a hundred feet away. When we wanted to take the car to a nearby beach or go to downtown Wanaka, it's a very quick 5 to 7 minutes away. The town of Wanaka is wonderful, the people are friendly and the surrounding region abounds with nature's breath-taking beauty. I hope we can soon return to this location, and if we do, this place would be solidily at the top of the list to stay. It's an absolute slice of heaven.

First impressions was of a very clean, well appointed modern property with uncluttered space and beautiful furnishings. . Digging a little deeper we found a kitchen so well stocked with cookware, serviceware and appliances (eg. dual ovens and dishwashers) that we were able to prep elaborate meals. The garage had multiple bikes with helmets and locks. The beds were very comfortable and linens top notch. The property is near the top of a hill providing unobstructed panoram8c mountain and lake views. It is quick access to town, the lake and the bike and hike trails. All that was missing was a longer stay. The only minor irritant was that the wifi was unreliable beyond the main living area... something easily fixable. Can't recommend this property enough.

We had three family groups with 6 kids aged 8-11. The house exceeded expectations and was just what we all needed for our ski week holiday. Great bedroom options and living spaces, bathrooms for each family, well stocked kitchen and a welcome pack of essentials including coffee and more than 2 dishwashing tabs! We loved it here, the view, the fire, the facilities at the house were all fantastic. Disappointing that the communal spas in the weren’t working but the hot water and shower pressure made up for it. Thank you, thank you, thank you! We hope to come again.

What a wonderful house

This house is an experience destination all of its own. Such wonderful spaces in this architecturally designed home and beautifully decorated. There are so many individual spaces for each member of the family to find their place to relax and look out the windows to the incredible views this house is designed to capture. Such a beautiful space to be in and to move through and to relax and enjoy our holiday. Excellent access to the middle of Wanaka, we felt like this was an amazing home away from home and loved every minute of it. We can't wait to come back with other family members. Cheers Smith Family

We had a fantastic stay at IVP. The property was very clean, everything possibly required for a family holiday was supplied (including many bikes of different sizes), and the communications and instructions provided by the management team were prompt and clear. The views from all rooms of the house are truly magnificent. We really enjoyed a restful stay and look forward to a return trip this winter.

Plenty of room, stunning views, and Julianne and Sabine were both fantastic to communicate with. This place will hold a special memory for us, when we look back on our daughters wedding. Highly recommend.

We stayed at Island View Place for 5 nights in October. To be honest, it must rate as one of the best family holidays we've had. The house is spacious, and well laid out. The outside area for eating / sun-bathing a real treat, and the views are amazing of course. Weather was great, check-in easy. Bikes to cruise round the lake a bonus. Thanks so much, we hope to come back! Mike and Rachael
