Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Clean room. Staff lovely. Great amenities. Highly recommend.
Rooms where clean and son had a room to himself which he enjoyed, pool and hot tub were great to use after days activities, bar could have been open more but realise it's late in season.
Super friendly staff. They were hard workers, cleaning in the mornings and painting in the afternoon. I lied that someone was always around to ask questions or offer help.
Nice hotel with great pools and hit pools. Rooms are tidy, but can be loud if you someone is in the upstairs unit. A car is needed because it is quite far from central Wanaka
Another great stay at this hotel, lovely big rooms, seperate bedroom. All like new, very clean and well maintained. Conveniently located in wanaka. Will stay here again. Thanks!
One night stay here while doing road trip around South Island. Room was clean, bed comfortable. Only negative would be walls very thin, you could here snoring from another room, and a very loud conversation from room next door before 7am.
We stayed in a 3 room apartment, the heaters didnt work in 2 of the rooms, try to ask not to have 1/2/3 as its next door to the driveway which is quite loud with all the traffic coming in and out. Kids loved the spa
Great spacious apartment style accommodation with everything you need. We only stayed one night but it has everything needed for longer stays. Professional service on check in and check out. The communal areas are really nice, really enjoyed the pools and hot tubs, lovely to soak in as the sun went down. Had dinner at the onsite restaurant with lovely service and reasonably priced food. A good morning walk down to the Wanaka lakefront took about 30 minutes.
