Alan and Noeline were great hosts. We were recommended to try the food at the Trout which was a fantastic place with nice selection of beers on tap. We had to leave the place early and they were kind enough to leave some fruits for us to take along for out trip.

    The studio is very spacious, private, tastefully decorated and has a lovely ambience. It had everything we needed and comms and check in etc were a breeze. The provided breakfast (self serving) of fresh fruit, juice, cereals, yoghurt, breads, and tea and coffee was great. A more residential location but nice and quiet and an easy drive or walk to central Wanaka.

    Excellent, private, quiet. Just a quick drive down into town and Lake Wanaka. Ambistious guests could walk to town as well. Great hosts who left milk for us in the fridge. It was so helpful to have a washing machine, and there was excellent breeze and an extensive clothesline to dry the clothes.

    Great location, lovely staff that do what they can to keep their guests happy. Wifi good. Very clean which makes up for the general run-down state of the lodge/hostel building (as opposed to the lovely main building). Showers surprisingly good with hot water. Cheapest private room of Wanaka that day so yes you get what you pay for.
