Houses in Wānaka

Aubrey House
The most beautiful home to make some memories in! Location is perfect and so good for swims and walks along the waterfront. We didn’t want to leave!

Cosy, stylish house in downtown Wanaka (CasaLinda)
Fantastic host.. The washing machine and dryer is great so we can have our clothes washed. The kitchen is fully equipped. Even the condiments for cooking. The location is very convenient. 5mins drive and there are lots of restaurants. Linda has also recommended the restaurants and Kika is really good. Linda is always prompt in her response. Highly recommend her place!

Modern 3 bedroom house
What an amazing stay! Beautiful location, lovely warm home with great lighting, cooking, bedrooms and bathrooms. A real highlight of our trip! Lake Wānaka is a lovely place and this house really suited our family. We felt right at home and didn’t want to leave! Highly recommended.

Private Comfort
The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The house was squeaky clean, very comfortable, and we had such a good night’s sleep. Highly recommend!

Peaceful and Secluded, yet so close to town!
Thank you for having us at your stunning house. We enjoyed every minute in the house as well as exploring Lake Wanaka. The house is incredibly spacious, immaculate and very accommodating to small children. Will return with more family members so we can enjoy the full capacity this stunning house offers.

Number 70 Warm 3 bedroom - close to lake and town
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.

Albert Drive Retreat - Central Otago Bliss

We enjoyed our staying at this lovely, cozy and well prepared place. The house is beautiful and the kitchen is organised perfect and easy to use. The location to the town centre is great only 5 mins taking to pretty all of restaurants and marts. Definitely recommend this place.

Lakeside Retreat in a Vineyard By Lake Dunstan
Stephen is truly a gentleman and the place is absolutely stunning! The hot tub was the highlight and Stephen was kind enough to get it ready for us when we wanted. Wanaka is short drive from the vineyard and there are plenty of other great places to visit nearby! If you’re looking to stay in this region, go for it !

Stunning Private Log Cabin
Best Airbnb we have stayed at, Sean is an amazing host, very generous and made us feel welcome. The airbnb itself is beautifully designed and is a perfect retreat for those wanting a getaway for a few nights. We particularly loved the spa and the lovely spacious decking surrounded by trees. Would definitely love to come back and highly recommend this airbnb. 10/10

Room for everyone.
Great accomodation that suited our needs & Jayne was great to communicate with, always in touch & quick to respond.

Charming Lakeside Home
The accommodation is just wonderful and we really enjoyed our stay. It's not too far from the town center but is located on a peaceful and private street away from the noise and traffic. The accommodation has all the standard amenities, and perishables such as toilet paper and rubbish bags were well stocked. The beds were comfortable, and everything was clean. Kim was also very proactive and helpful in providing all the essential information. On the day we checked in, she also reached out to make sure we didn't have any issues accessing the apartment and everything was in order. Overall, we are very happy with our stay, and we highly recommend it to any other family visiting Wanaka.

Point of View
Beautiful place with the most amazing view. We were 3 families with 6 kids in total and they fit perfectly in the bunk room. Everything felt so luxurious and comfortable, especially the high quality beds. Our kids loved the place!
