Lake Hawea Escape

PipRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Wow! Everything about Kelly and Craig's Escape is wonderful. Clear instructions. Spotlessly clean. Beautifully appointed. Comfortable bed. Excellent heating - heat pump and the best little fire. Not to mention the under floor heating in the bathroom. Cooking facilities with all the tools you need, if you want a night in. Lovely private grounds, with the bonus of an awesome hot tub. A short 15 minute drive into Wanaka. My husband and I wouldn't hesitate staying again. Thanks Kelly and Craig.

Farm Cottage Charm

BreeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We loved staying in this home. The upstairs bedrooms and bathroom had stunning views, there was plenty of living space for the family and the kitchen was large and practical. The home is in a very convenient location and is walking distance of the town centre. We would highly recommend Ron’s house to anyone wanting to visit the beautiful Wānaka.

Lakefront Luxury @ Pisa

StephanieRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The house was terrific, spotlessly clean and attractive with a beautiful view out to the water from the living area. It is a quiet area, the beds are super comfy and everything felt thought through and welcoming. If we were staying for longer we would have certainly pottered off along the walkway beside the water. Wendy was very friendly and I would definitely stay again.

Lakefront View Apartment with Sauna

PamRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Really beautiful spot just a few steps away from the main center of restaurants and shops. Great angle to view the lake and mountains — the owners suite on the second floor had a nice view, and then the third floor had a stunning view (which was nice with the open concept between living/dining room). The sauna was a fun touch too! We juuust barely managed to fit our 2 cars into the garage, but might not be doable if your cars are on the larger side.

Historic Clyde cottage, restored & welcoming

AuraRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We loved Louise’s place and had a wonderful time there in her beautiful garden as well. Lovely meeting her and her friendly dogs also! The cottage is charming with all the amenities you’d need - we were welcomed with freshly picked raspberries that were delightful. Located next to all the best coffee shops and restaurants in Clyde, we would love to come back and stay for longer next time.

Bellhaven

LucindaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We had another fantastic stay with Ray and Deb in Cromwell, our second time staying with them while in town for an agility show. Their house is in a perfect spot, just a 10-minute walk to the Stoaker Room for dinner, and close to many walkways leading to the lake. The accommodation is always clean and comfortable, with beds that guarantee a great night's sleep and everything we need to feel at home. Deb is absolutely lovely and makes us feel so welcome every time. It's the little things that make such a difference, and their place has truly become our favourite spot to stay in Cromwell. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!
