We really enjoyed the stay, it was near but not too near town area, for some peacefulness, but just a walk/drive away from the town areas, or the lake. The room was spotless clean, and we really loved the lemongrass soap that Julie provided for us. Was greeted by Julie on the day of check it, really friendly host, and gave us lots and lots of great food recommendations that we got to enjoy throughout the 2 days in Wanaka. Part of the reason, why we liked wanaka for the trip as well.
