A lovely place

My mum, myself & my little girl had such a lovely stay at Wanaka cottages. The attention to detail was wonderful. We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, fastidiously clean & relaxing place to stay in the Wanaka area.

Lovely Property

The property was lovely. Nice and central to what we needed.The only issue was the shower was over the bath - which normally wouldn't be too much of an issue but the beautiful bath was very high which made getting in and out difficult for myself who has had a knee replacement. Otherwise it was perfect. Ash was fantastic to deal with and available if we had any issues.

Wanaka Cottage is an excellent property in Wanaka

The Wanaka Cottage is a very well appointed, very comfortable property and was ideal for our winter weekend in Wanaka. The fire, spa pool and very comfortable beds were highlights. Having The Stoaker Room Bistro next door was a bonus. The manager communications were first rate, timely and accurate. Highly recommended

Very comfortable & homely

Wanaka is a lovely place to visit & this cottage is a very comfortable place to stay. It’s on the edge of town, but nowhere in Wanaka is far from anywhere else. We were able to relax, spread out & enjoy our down time between all the other activities we did. Ash was an attentive, but unobtrusive host & made sure we had what we needed, & gave us excellent tips for dining etc. Would definitely stay there again

Wonderful stay

We had a lovely stay at Ash and Jackies place, super clean and tidy, big outdoor space and spa were a great bonus! Ash was very friendly and helpful, and the bowl of freshly picked raspberries was amazing!! Our doggo loved it as well, lots of sunbathing spots for her in the garden - and she would love the fire in winter! Hope to be back - thank you!

A Gem Guesthouse

Delightful surprise. Was greeted by the owner and given a thorough tour. The home is extremely tasteful with many thoughtful amenities for a traveler. Very private. Kitchen well equipped - and laid out - sorry I didn't get to use it or stay longer for that matter. One of the best VRBOs out there.

Beautiful guest home with lovely views. Clean and well appointed.

Only concern was we paid extra to be in a quiet location. There were weddings w bands three of the five nights we were there. Host was apologizing and tried to keep them quiet after certain hours but was not what we had expected. Otherwise lovely location- especially if your going to the weddings!

Fantastic stay in perfect cozy cottage !

Really lovely cozy cottage with a great backyard. Fully equipped with everything we needed- including laundry, a deep bathtub and a hot tub / spa outside. Conveniently located with a friendly but quiet bar/ restaurant right next door for easy dinners and drinks. We loved the lake, Puzzleworld and easy drive to Queenstown thru the dramatic mountain pass.
