The property is located a bit outside the town center, but still not far from the lake and the famous That Wanaka Tree. The place is very well-equipped, especially the kitchen—which had an impressive amount of utensils and appliances, more than enough for any kind of cooking. The shared common area was beautiful, spacious, and very comfortable.

Staff was LOVELY, very kind and attentive. The place was great, very clean, spacious, attention to detail…Perfect location. We like to have private bathrooms but here even though it was shared, it was still very good, clean and well looked after. The whole place is very clean and warm. Beds and pillows very comfortable. Kitchen has everything that you need and a dishwasher!! Cupboard and fridge are divided by rooms which is great! So well organised and clean. We only stayed a few hours as we got there late in the evening and left pretty early… wish we had more time. I would definitely recommend this place!!

Shared kitchen was spacious & well equipped with cooking utensils and cooking oils as well as Asian spices. The owner really cares for each detail in the kitchen and we are really surprised by his complete tidiness and cleanliness of the kitchen areas. The best shared kitchen in New Zealand I have used during our trip! Share bathroom also clean and tidy. The living room with wooden construction is quite really nice. The lodge is located in a peaceful and quite street filled with autumn vibes, really beautiful lodge in Wanaka. It is very close to the downtown and easy to walk. Highly recommended! We wish we could stay here much longer! Next time, I would definitely stay here when having a chance to come back to Wanaka. Thank you so much!

Nothing!

This hostel had everything you need - clean, comfy rooms, and a shared kitchen. There was plenty of allocated space in the kitchen for each room, and I cooked easily in the evening. It is a good location, being a short drive from both Lake Wanaka and scenic walking routes, the town area and also the start of Roys Peak climb. Shared bathrooms were clean and spacious. Good value for money for solo travellers who want an entire room in a central location.

I could hear some noise though the walls, but I have ear plugs and didn't cause much issue sleeping. But then these things always have to be weighed up against value for money, having a whole room for a solo traveller and the location, as you can't have everything!

The hosts were super friendly , explained all that we needed to know. The bedroom area was clean and comfy. The kitchen was amazingly well equipped! We were able to prep meals well, plus cook up some vegan burgers for the next stage of the trip. Washing and drying facilities were excellent. Although the bathroom was shared, they were clean and never had to wait for facilities. Although I did;t get a chance to jump in the spa it looked lovely and clean ( I especially liked the way the host very politely asked the guests to wrap up their spa at 9pm to give guests some peace and quiet from the spa motor). Thankyou it was a surprisingly good stay.

Nothing.

Loved this property - the owners were so kind and welcoming. They are a machine! Pretty sure it’s just the 2 of them turning over rooms and doing everything! The place is so sparkling clean, kitchen is well stocked with equipment and there’s a lovely garden area to hang out in. The washing machine was huge and we managed to wash all of our clothes in one go for $4 and hang it all outside to dry (they have pegs). We stayed for 4 nights and were sad to say goodbye! The location is a bit out of town but just 15minutes and we enjoyed the walk! Plenty of parking for cars and they even had a hot tub (we just didn’t have time to use it).

Nothing!

Immaculately presented not a thing out of place, enjoyed that you could chat to other guests in a communal lounge room, kitchen facilities were spot on and amenities were very clean. The room was very compact but warm and tidy.

Seemed the management team where do you go on holidays and there was no open fire/slow combustion fire happening in an area where ambience of a fire was a must

Host super friendly and accomodating (gave us a tour on arrival), beautiful accomodation - very well cleaned and maintained, kitchen was expansive which plenty of storage and cooking facilities, common areas were warm and comfortable, bathrooms were clean, rooms were nice and quiet, free spa to use is nice, nice decor, parking available, fun games and music to play in the common area, lots of spare towels and face cloths.

It's easier to drive into town as it is a moderate walk. There were two bikes to use but they looked a little bit old. Not much negative feedback to give - this place was really nice and we enjoyed our stay!

Spotlessly clean lodge with large comfortable sitting room and fire, and well provisioned kitchen. Shared bathrooms were also kept very clean and in good order. Hot tub on site was free to use. Easy parking, on the road to treble cone and five minute drive to wanaka

The walls are thin and wooden so noise travels extremely easily, even though all guests were considerate it’s not a place for light sleepers. Rooms have what you need but are very basic, it would be better if there were headboards.
