Very clean, cozy and well equipped. It might sound simple, but the entry area where everyone (kids!) can take off their outdoor gear was great.

Winter in Wanaka

The kitchen was an absolute delight to cook in, and did not feel like a holiday house kitchen. We were two families of four, and young kids, so the big back yard was a hit. The house is warm and spacious, enough room for everybody to spread out. Thanks to our lovely hosts, allowing us to stay there, and prompt communication when we did have questions.

Great space and location, clean and well equipped

Debbie was easy to communicate with. We had no issue during our stay. The backyard was a nice space to play games adults and kids alike. The garage is separate but safe and great for leaving the bikes and gears safely outside the house. It was everything we were looking for. We will book again! Looking forward to our next stay.

Plenty of space in a quiet location

We spent two nights here. The kitchen was very well appointed and we enjoyed sitting outside and enjoying the view of the mountains. The only downside was that the upstairs rooms were extremely hot and those sleeping upstairs struggled to sleep because of that. This probably wouldn't usually be a problem but it was 32 degrees when we stayed.

Hi Sonia, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Wanaka does seem to have extreme temperatures, very hot in the summer and very cold in the winter. Its hard to cool down a house in 32 degrees a bit like Christchurch tonight. Will look at air conditioning upstairs. Cheers Debbie

Fabulous Stay

This property was just lovely. Very clean and tidy and the owner was great with her communication, as well as very helpful. It was so good to be able to bring our small dog with us, and there was plenty of backyard space for him to roam. We would definitely recommend this property to others.

Family Wanaka stay

Property was clean and host was easy to get in contact with on arrival. Good location close to town but not close enough to walk to dinner. Bedrooms upstairs were huge! So much space Only issue we had was working the oven 😂 an instruction guide might be helpful Loved our stay will look to book here again in the future

Hi Alix, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. So sorry about the oven. Unfortunately the mains gets turned off and then the clock had to be reset for it to work again. We do have an instruction manual in the cupboard above. Would love to see you again Debbie
