We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Cardrona. Being a family of 7 looking to explore the Wanaka / Queenstown / Cromwell area this location suited us well. The house is very tastefully decorated and well equipped, there wasn't anything we didnt have. The beds & linen were very comfortable. Overall, it was outstanding! We would definitely stay again.

Great location in Cardrona

We spent 5 days at the Cardrona Townhouse and had an excellent time. Location is convenient to Queenstown and Wanaka. Communication with the owner was very prompt and easy. The townhouse was very clean and beautiful too. It comfortably accommodated our 7 adults and had all the amenities needed for our stay. If we come back to the area, we will definitely stay here again.

We had a fantastic two weeks at Cardrona during Christmas with our extended family. Garry and Kristine were responsive to questions, and had everything setup ready for our arrival. The space is well suited to extended family, and the location allows you to relax from the hustle of Wanaka and Queenstown, while still only a short drive away. The Cardrona Hotel, only a 2min walk away, provides great atmosphere and food, while the general store provides the basics and has a good menu for a quick breakfast on the run. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would recommend highly.

Cardrona

Great location for the busiest period of the holiday season! We had an oasis that was both peaceful and relaxing. We heard the faint drum and base from R&A music festival one night only but nothing that kept us awake. Lovely drive into Wanaka from Cardrona. The unit has everything you need. Lovely outside dining area; just be aware morning sun does burn and no shade (I found out the hard way 😫). Easy stroll to the Cardrona Hotel for dinner.

Fantastic location for families

We spent two weeks in the area, 9 days on the snow and the rest in Wanaka and Queenstown - so this apartment was perfectly located for us. As two adults and two young children we were fine with being out of Wanaka & Queenstown. Bedrooms were well presented with enough storage space - master quite roomy. There was heaps of bedding, spare pillows and electric blankets. The kitchen was fitted out with the necessary basics, and the knives were sharp enough to be useful ! :-) Drying closet was handy for our boots & gloves, big enough to handle same for probably 8 people. Heaps of wood available for the fireplace. Unfortunately we did not take advantage of the outside eating area & barbecue. We had a minor (self-inflicted) emergency early on in our stay and Garry was extremely responsive and helpful in getting it sorted out. Highly recommended !

The property is in a great location. We did have a power cut and also very noisey neighbours. Remember this is a town house so you will here next door. The house has everything you need and great for Cardrona and Cardrona hotel.

Lovely town house in the heart of Cardrona

An excellent property in a great location. Had family visiting from the UK and made a great base for exploring some of the fantastic sights of Central Otago. Also a nice house to retreat to and wind down after a busy day. We particularly enjoyed being an easy walk away from the Cardrona hotel!
