This is a really nice, value for money stay in Lake Hawea. The cottage was very clean and nicely finished, with some kind touches like milk and jam in the fridge. Lake Hawea itself was absolutely beautiful- it's perfect if you want to avoid the business and high costs of Wanaka. Lots of beautiful walks nearby, with Isthmus peak 20 minutes away. The cottage felt very private and the garden is just gorgeous! Only downside is we found the wifi was pretty much non existent- it was noted in the welcome guide that it would be pretty slow, but we couldn't get it to connect. However, definitely not a deal breaker- if you're doing the trip right, you probably don't need much wifi anyway! Thanks for a great stay 😊
