The views promised by Whare Iti did not disappoint and they are just one of the many delights of staying in this well-appointed contemporary little cottage. The extensive double glazing and insulation not only regulate the temperature and make it cosy but also make it so very quiet. Sleep was easy. Looking out at night to see the Southern Cross and Orion in the same star field was quite something. Whare iti is spotlessly clean and comfortable. The shower in the modern bathroom has great water pressure. A real pleasure to use. Enjoyed the little treats like Whitaker’s chocolate in the fridge. Sunny and Selina were great hosts, providing us with advice about which were the best local vineyards and places to visit. Friendly, providing access to their wifi by approaching the “big house”, but respecting our need for privacy. For us city dwellers, Whare Iti had everything we needed being centrally located between Wanaka and Cromwell and with easy access to Queenstown.
