We had a nice experience staying at the chalet. Wanaka was the last town we stayed in NZ so we are looking for relaxing rather than excitement. The location of the house is perfect - only five minutes walk to the centre of town. The house has all the furniture and appliances- though we didn't have time to do any cooking. What is worth mentioning is that the host Caroline is very helpful and nice. We had a little accident of "light bulb explosion " during our stay and all the lights went off. Caroline quickly responded to my call and helped me locating the fuse box. The water is heated by gas - not electricity, so you don't have to worry about hot water when you have a lot of people taking showers. Very nice stay. Highly recommended.
