Great staff
Super friendly staff. They were hard workers, cleaning in the mornings and painting in the afternoon. I lied that someone was always around to ask questions or offer help.

Lovely place to stay. Beautiful apartment with a lovely view. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed for supper the evening we arrived and we hadn’t been notified until our arrival.
Facilities were excellent and clean.
Bed was comfortable.
View was stunning.
Unfortunately our outside door to the apartment opened during the night. Slightly unsettling.

Tidy resort with hot pools
Nice hotel with great pools and hit pools. Rooms are tidy, but can be loud if you someone is in the upstairs unit. A car is needed because it is quite far from central Wanaka

Everything was amazing, only thing that would have made our experience there better would have been if our room got serviced whilst we were out and about.

Lovely apartment with everything provided. Huge balcony with views over the mountains. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed, as it was full every day with group bookings, and one day the bar was closed too. In the apartment the shower was running cold. Maintenance tried to fix it, but it still didn’t work. Hence the 4 star rating, but everything else was great

Two night stay in Wanaka
This hotel was a pretty good price for a couple of nights stay in Wanaka. Seemed a lot of bus loads of tourist groups use it so lots of comings and goings. Bed was comfortable, shower was average. Nothing much in the room apart from a couple of cups, glasses and teaspoons. (needed to go and ask for a knife). Rooms were not serviced unless asked for specifically however, fresh towels were provided when asked for. Staff were friendly and helpful. Nice pool facilities.

The place has no air condition at all, so if it’s summer and warm the room is an inferno!!

We stayed in a 3 room apartment, the heaters didnt work in 2 of the rooms, try to ask not to have 1/2/3 as its next door to the driveway which is quite loud with all the traffic coming in and out. Kids loved the spa

Enjoyable but room for improvement.
We had an enjoyable time here and would return. However, there were a few areas that should be addressed.
- As others have indicated, the WiFi is basically unusable. I had to use my phone’s hotspot as the WiFi speed was so poor.
- One of the bathrooms in our two-bedroom apartment smelled very strongly of cigarettes. Every time we ran the water, the smell was stronger. Maybe someone put cigarette butts down the drain? This remained through our stay even though we ran the fan and had the window open.
- The main door into the room from outside is frosted glass but has a 3cm clear border all the way around. There is no blind or curtain that can be closed and nothing blocking the view to the bed or bathroom. This means that neighbours walking by could catch a glimpse of more than they bargained for. A side effect of not having a curtain or blind on this door is that at night, you can’t have a completely dark room as there are porch and carpark lights that come in the door.
- Two of the hot pools were out of order and one of them was open but only lukewarm. This meant that we had to wait for someone to vacate one of the working pools for us to use it. Side note that none of the spa pools had bubbles/jets which would have greatly enhanced the experience.

Was a good stay, affordable, however would’ve appreciated room service daily as room floor became dirty quite quickly. Otherwise, enjoyed stay.
