Prime positioned Lake House in Stunning Lake Hawea
A very comfortable home next to Lake Hawea, you can literally walk to the lake from the backyard of the house. The Lake view is stunning in the morning. There are 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, so suitable for family travel. Everything you need is there, BBQ, washing machine, drying machine. All in all, a very comfortable place to stay.

The View
Amazing location, the house has stunning views of the mountains and lake. Well equipped with everything you need, the group of 6 really enjoyed the house, very comfy beds and furniture. A great spot to unwind after a few busy days. Walking distance to supermarket cafes and bars, we can’t wait to book our trip next year and stay again. Thank you :)

Wanaka Family Friendly Home
Excellent family home, perfect for our family getaway! Loved the location, was a quiet respectful street and was close to bike tracks, park around the corner, community pool not far and a small supermarket at the end of the short street. Beds were comfy, great shower pressure, and the kids loved having a play outside every evening on the play area, and then having a bath to finish off there day. I would love to stay again if we were that way.

Wanaka Boutique
This was a last minute booking, Ross and Trudie met the market, I was lucky to find this accommodation. It is in a good position on a rise above the Wanaka Tree and reserve, if you want to walk it is about 15 - 20 minutes so I am told. They gave clear instructions to enter the home, which is a modern very well presented house. The room was separated by the stairs and a main door to the living area. It is totally private, with a large fresh and modern bathroom and the shower is separate not above the bath. There is another room that has 4 bunks in it. The room we were in was more like a suite, it had a comfortable bed, and a 2 seater couch. This is much better than the hotels chairs or bed to only sit on. We had access to the kitchen and lounge which we used when by ourselves. There is a lovely deck that can be accessed from the room itself or through the lounge, the sun was streaming in the afternoon, this time of the year however was a little chilly at times. I would recommend this

The Moraine
We had a lovely stay at lake Hawea and made the most of the close location to the lake front. The house was clean, tidy, spacious and had everything we needed. Alex was easy to communicate with.

Heavenly in Hawea
Craigs house was really nice, modern and clean. The outside area (veranda/ porch) is great with kids to have a huge area with shadow during midday sun. Craig himself was really friendly and communicative. We would love to stay again there!

Wanaka Holiday House
Great vacation and great location!

Lake and mountain views
Our family was mesmerized by the views and enjoyed the neighborhood playground just around the corner. Once we got our bearings, the walk into town was a fairly easy 20 minutes through a hilly park. The kitchen was nicely organized with all the essentials for family meals (we hadn't had a blender in a while which was great for smoothies). We had a great stay overall in a beautiful location. Our only challenge was the Wi-Fi, which was much slower than we had had elsewhere in New Zealand. Hopefully, this is something that can be easily sorted out for future guests. It was great to meet Hamish, who was a very kind host.

Location Plus. .Wanaka Beachside at Bremner Bay
Very peaceful stay, loved it 😄

Sunny Garden Cottage Near Lake Wanaka
We stayed at this location in mid-June. The hosts were very helpful, responsive, and personable, more-so than most Airbnbs that we’ve stayed at and that help make the stay more enjoyable. The wood-stove in the main living area heated the space very well and feel cozy, and the heat pump upstairs was adequate for that space. We would stay here again.
