Note: Spa use is included in your booking for stays June 15 to September 30. The spa is available outside of these winter months ON REQUEST at an EXTRA CHARGE. Please advise us if you wish to have the spa included in your stay, outside of the winter dates specified.

Please note, Airbnb does not consider infants to be guests (when counting numbers) and will allow you to book this property if any infants accompanying you take your guest numbers to higher than 7 guests. Unfortunately, our council regulations prohibit us from exceeding this number, including infants. If you do book for more than 7 guests, infants included, we will unfortunately need to cancel your booking and you will need to incur any fees we get charged.



You will have access to the entire property during your stay.



We are available to answer any questions via our Guest Portal DUVE. We leave guests alone during their stay but are on hand if required. I live locally and Im only a stones throw away. If there is something that requires attention during your stay, we will be able to attend within approximately 30 minutes.



The Mt Iron area is an established leafy suburb of Wanaka, located 5 minutes` drive from Wanaka`s Town Center. Wanaka offers a wide variety of activities to do. You can take a lake cruise or a scenic helicopter flight, try your hand at heli-skiing, or fishing in many of the surrounding lakes and rivers. Alternatively, a walk to Rob Roy Glacier in the stunning Mt Aspiring National Park or walk with the locals up Mt Iron might be more your thing.



Dingleburn Safari and Puzzling World with its maze and illusion room offer further entertainment options for children, as does Wanaka`s 2 quirky unique movie theaters. If it’s more of a relaxing holiday you’re after, picnics on the Clutha River or Lakefront or a wine tour of the local vineyards are all a stone’s throw away.



Wanaka`s airport is 9km away & Queenstown`s airport is only an hour’s drive via the stunning Crown Range. And of course, in winter, hit the slopes just a short drive away at the local ski fields: Cardrona, Treble Cone, or the Snow Farm. This beautifully appointed home really is a wonderful base for that perfect holiday/staycation or workcation!



Enter Wanaka on State Hwy 84 - take the second exit off the Anderson Road roundabout onto Anderson Rd - turn right into Wilkin Rd, left into Ragan Lane & left in Archilles Place

Once your booking is confirmed, you will be directed to our guest portal DUVE. Prior to check-in, you will be required to complete an identity check by scanning your drivers licence/passport and credit card before being provided with your arrival instructions. This provides security for the owners of the property so they are comfortable that you are who you say you are and you have the documents to prove it (similar to a hotel check-in procedure). We do not charge your card, nor does it get stored by our system, you are welcome to block out all, except the last 4 digits on the card, but please note that our Guest Portal DUVE has the highest level of PCI compliance available. This process is necessary due to the fact that we have a self-check-in system.



Please note that we do have a minimum age requirement of 25 years. The primary guest making the booking must meet this minimum age, though accompanying guests may be younger.



Please note, Airbnb does not consider infants to be guests (when counting numbers) and will allow you to book this property if any infants accompanying you take your guest numbers to higher than 7 guests.
