Wow! What a magical place Edgewater is. I came to relax and as soon as i walked in I felt calm. The restaurant has fabulous food, from breakfast to dinner. Sitting outside up on the hill and looking down at the lake was my favourite. The grounds are just lovely. The staff were attentive and nothing was too much trouble. They even offered to carry my bags to my room. The walk around the lake was absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend a stay here.

The new upgraded rooms are excellent. The property is on the lake for great walks and minutes away from the famous Wanaka tree in the lake. The staff in the restaurant were awesome and the food/wines were fantastic. It's located minutes away from downtown and in a great neighborhood. Everything was great.

We stayed one night in a superior apartment. We were very happy with our accommodation choice. The apartment was one of the renovated ones. It was roomy and had a view onto the lake and really convenient parking right outside. The dining at the hotel was okay, although much better options in the town of Wanaka, about 20 minutes walk away.

Great place to stay. Staff was helpful and friendly, the location is outstanding and so is the property. Green grass from the property leading up to the lake where I took a swim. Beautiful landscaping, relaxing and calm. It’s an easy walk to the town center yet away from its hustle and bustle. I walked the trail along the lake, it was delightful. I’ll definitely come back.

Beautiful hotel resort. We had a suite that was just perfect! The layout and views were amazing and it felt very spacious. There’s a restaurant available. The coffee breakfast was delicious. It is an older resort but very well maintained. We didn’t stay very long but there is a sauna available. The lake is just a quick walk out from any of the rooms and restaurants. I’m definitely planning to return to this location and the resort. Thank you!

Our room with a direct and beautiful lakeside view was very comfortable and quiet. Dinner in the restaurant was fine, too, but breakfast service needs improvement: replenishing the eggs took at least 15 minutes, and one of the servers did not speak English sufficiently and gave incorrect information about the buffet service.

Hidden gem on the lake with walking track and shops cafes and restaurants close by. Facilities were also great with spas, bikes available if needed. The hotel restaurant was really good with a great selection of wines and meals. Would recommend a longer stay than 1 night...could have stayed a week.
