What a view! Staying at Philip's is worth it to wake up overlooking Lake Wanaka alone. Very comfortable bed and easy walk into town for anything you may need it is a perfect spot for a couple days in the area. You do have to walk down about 10 -15 steps to get to the private entrance - not a big deal but something to be mindful of if you have a heavy suitcase. Once there, you're welcomed by a large, comfortable bed and a great shower. Even a very lovely outdoor patio to watch the activities on the lake. Would absolutely consider staying here again when I am next in the area.
