Vanessa place is a quiet, clean, spacious, comfy, with fantastic views. It is short drive to town. The seclusion and size of the property gives amazing privacy, with children being able to play safely. The whole place made us feel at ease, and was perfect for 2 families staying.. Vanessa's place is the most well equipped, best located, and real value of all the places we have stayed in New Zealand. The place was very clean, modern, had everything we needed to feel at home. It was the perfect escape! I highly recommend this wonderful house for visiting Franz Joseph.
