Water & Moutain views from private hot tub / spa

SaraRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Anita and Clint’s place is absolutely stunning! The views are breathtaking - from the living room, bedroom, terrace, and especially the hot tub. The scenery constantly shifts with the weather - sunshine or rain, it’s always beautiful. The flat is super cosy, stylish, and thoughtfully furnished with lovely details. It truly feels like a piece of paradise - just WOW! Definitely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed at. Anita and Clint were also incredibly lovely and communicative. I needed a bit of assistance during my stay, and they responded right away with help and kindness. I’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone. You won’t regret it! I only wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Takapō Retreat | Lake Tekapo

KimRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Love the living room area. Kitchen has everything we need. This place is much better than the pictures was show in the listing. Unfortunately because the weather, it was cloudy the two days we stay in Tekapo, so we aren’t able to see the stargazing. But if the sky is clear, this will be the place you want to stay!

LUXURY HOME WITH LAKE AND MOUNTAIN VIEWS

JudiRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Julianne’s house is one of the best Airbnb we have stayed. It is located in a quiet part of Wanaka but still very close to the town centre. We love that there are so many bedrooms and bathrooms. My parents and kids all had their own ensuites. The living room is tastefully set up and provides for a space for everybody - reading, working, chilling. Almost every window looks out to a beautiful view. It felt like living inside a picture. The property is within walking distance to Sticky Forest which has walking and bike trials. We appreciated the availability of the bikes and helmets. Thanks Julianne!

Rare find: 3bed house so close to town you'll walk

DavidRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The house is very attractive and easy walking distance from the waterfront and shopping. The downside is that it is on a very busy road with lots of traffic noise, but it was made worse by a road closure so that may not be everyone's experience. Sharon was very helpful and responsive. her area recommendations were thorough and we used a few of them while we were here.

Roy's Bay Luxury Accommodation

WillowRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Such a great location! Easily walkable to the beach and town if you're able. Super comfortable beds and a well stocked kitchen for cooking. The driveway is small and the parking area is as well - I was concerned in the beginning that our Subaru Forester wouldn't fit but we made it work. The house was a bit smaller/less modern than the photos led me to believe, but the space is nice and clean and worked very well for us. Highly recommend!

This place is gorgeous! From the shortbread cookies and fresh flowers on arrival to the fact that there are bath toys and other toys for kids, every detail was covered. We loved being able to get to the path along the lake quickly from here and went on morning runs, walks and bike rides there! Our favourite place thus far.
