Our family of 5 (mum, dad and 3 boys) stayed here for 6 nights during June/July 2016 and we all loved the accomodation. We came here primarily for a skiing holiday, as the entrance to Cardrona is about 30 minutes away. Firstly, Two Buckets is in a fantastic location, 5 mins drive from the town centre yet with a lovely out of town feel. The house was extremely clean and comfortable. When you are away from home it is always nice to stay at a place that is similar to your own standards of cleanliness. The beds were very comfortable and the boys really loved their upstairs beds (a King Single and Queen). The bathrooms were modern and clean and the kitchen was fantastic. We were able to cook real dinners just like we would at home. We really appreciated the washer and dryer which provided a great convenience as a lot of places only have a washing machine which is really useless during winter if you can't dry . The view from the living room was amazing and lovely. There is nothing more that Duncan and Barbi could have done to make our stay more comfortable. It is a really well decked out place to stay and I would highly recommend anyone to stay here if they are coming to Wanaka. Our friends from Australia who were also here at the same time, came to visit us and they were most impressed with Two Buckets. Barbi even left us some crispy delicious apples which we all ate on the first day as we had just come from a long trip from Australia.
