Rooms where clean and son had a room to himself which he enjoyed, pool and hot tub were great to use after days activities, bar could have been open more but realise it's late in season.

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.

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.

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

Great pools but unsafe to get in and out if unsteady on your feet. Likewise the bath-shower didn’t have a nonslip mat.

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

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.
