The apartment was warm and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It's in a great location to explore the area from. We would stay again. The only negatives are the bathroom needs updating, the lamp on the queen bedroom had a broken switch and there was a hole in the wall in the single room.

Excellent location only 3 minutes by car or 10 on foot to all the Wanaka’s shopping, restaurants, I site. The new owners are so caring and welcoming, they take guests interest at heart, they are planning to refurbish slowly all the rooms. They have cooking facilities from microwave to full kitchen.
