First, Aneta is a wonderful host. She is very quick at responding if you need anything or have any questions. The place is very nice and is perfectly suited for short or long stays. It has everything you need and it is very clean. The pictures posted on the listing show a beautiful view but seeing it in person is actually spectacular. We had the option to stay in Wanaka but I am glad we decided to stay here. Walks by the lake and the park are beautiful. If one believes in paradise, Lake Hawea and the surrounding area is pretty close up there. :)
