Ann's home is gorgeous and super comfortable. The pictures do not do it justice. We (three of us) were in two bedrooms towards the front of the hallway right across from a huge and gorgeous bathroom used only by us. Ann was an amazing hostess who made sure we had breakfast everyday even in those days when we had plans that made us leave her home at 5:30 AM. Her and her husband were very friendly and I very much enjoyed sitting with them every evening talking. They even fed me dinner one night, which they definitely did not have to do. The accomodations were excellent and super comfortable. We had a house key and could come and go as we pleased. The beds were so super comfortable with plenty of pillows and polar fleece sheets that made it hard to want to leave such coziness in the morning. The bathroom was very updated with a huge tub and very spacious. The house was beautiful, all on one floor and warm with a cozy woodburning stove that apparently burns all through the winter. The little town of Wanaka is gorgeous, the right size in terms of turists and plenty to do and see. Lake Wanaka is truly beautiful, it reminded me of Switzerland's Lake Lucern. Wanaka is also not too far from Queenstown, but we were happy with spending most of our time in Wanaka, eventhough initially we stayed in Wanaka with the intention of visiting Queenstown. I highly recommend Ann's place when visiting that area of New Zealand.
