Superb property

This property had everything you could possibly wish for. Beautiful view of the lake and mountains. Superbly equipped, beds lovely and comfortable, lots of hot water and powerful showers. Loads of comfortable seating, nice television and spacious dining area. The only issue was that the key code was incorrect but we rung up Bachcare and they had a man round within ten minutes to give us a key. Great communication with Bachcare also making it a wonderful family holiday for 7 of us.

Family Ski Holiday

Lovely stay. An issue when we arrived in that the code didn't work. I had to ring to get the information (after standing in the cold with a toddler and 3 month old baby) that the lock box was broken and the key was under the mat! A few of the beds were very soft and uncomfortable as well. But having said that there was plenty of room for us all and we were warm and cosy with a great view.

Thank you for your review. We're delighted to hear you and your family enjoyed your ski holiday and that the property provided plenty of space, warmth, comfort, and a great view during your stay. We're sorry, however, that your arrival experience was frustrating. We apologise for the inconvenience caused by the lockbox issue, particularly after travelling with a toddler and a young baby. We understand this would have been far from ideal and appreciate your patience in contacting our team to obtain the correct access information. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the comfort of some of the beds. We'll pass these comments on to the Property Manager for consideration. Thank you again for your balanced feedback. We're pleased to hear you had an enjoyable stay overall and hope to welcome you back to Wanaka in the future. Kind regards, Kenneth Reputations & Resolutions Team
