**** Please note that minimum stays apply. During long weekends, minimum stay is the length of the long weekend (usually 3 nights), and during holidays like Easter and New Year minimum stay is usually 5 nights or more. ****
This warm, clean and modern 4 bedroom house has been purpose built with holidaymakers in mind, and it's just had a makeover!
Perfect for a large family (or two small ones!), or three couples - make this your base to explore Wanaka and the outdoor activities our town has to offer.
The house boasts an open plan kitchen and living area with a new lounge suite and bean bags, flat screen TV and unlimited WiFi. The dining table seats 8 people, or four of you can perch at the breakfast bar. The living area opens out onto an all-weather outdoor BBQ area, and a modest back lawn. As you'd expect, the kitchen is fully equipped, including a large oven/hob, dishwasher, microwave and a large walk-in-pantry with a second fridge (just in case you want to chill your bevvies), plus a separate laundry with washing machine, drier and direct access to the back lawn and clothesline.
There are four bedrooms, which can sleep up to seven adults in total (a council restriction) - 8 people including children. The master bedroom (King) offers direct access to the back garden, plus ensuite bathroom and walk in wardrobe. The middle room has two single beds (can be converted to a King) and a built in wardrobe. The front bedroom has a King bed (which can become two singles) and built in wardrobe. And the smaller fourth bedroom has a double bed in it. The family bathroom offers both a shower and a spa bath (small/one person), and there is a separate family WC beside the bathroom.
Please note, depending on the number of people in your booking, some of the bedrooms you don't need might be locked/unavailable.
There is a generous garage with electric door opener (plenty of space for ski gear or summer toys, or drive right in after a day of adventures), and ample off-street parking out front for more cars or even a boat.
You'll have full access to the living areas and garage, and the rooms you have booked. Unused rooms may be shut off. The back garden area is yours to use - see below.
We offer self check in/out, but we are also on hand by phone (or in person if need be) to answer your questions or help in any way we can. We have lots of local knowledge and contacts, and we're here to help. We're also familiar with most of the tourist hotspots, tourist attractions, scenic walks etc - so ask away.
Please note that the all-weather outdoor BBQ area and lawn can be used all day up until 10pm. However, because it's a residential neighbourhood, local council rules state that the outdoor area cannot be used between 10pm and 8am each day, and this must be strictly observed, as the council monitors this.
We want you to enjoy our house, but please note that this is a quiet neighbourhood so parties aren't allowed.

The house was very clean and well presented. The owners were really helpful. We were a family of 5 (3 kids/2 adults) and had plenty of room. Very warm and well insulated. Great location with easy walk into town and shops which makes a difference during school holidays. Well equipped with all kitchen requirements, etc. Would definitely recommend to other people considering this place.
