Charming cottage feel

This was a lovely little roadside hotel with a cottage feel. Our room was very clean and well appointed. Great location with lake view and park view. Paragliders landed in the park while we were there. The laundry room is very convenient and there is a private clothes line to hang dry! Wanaka is a beautiful town with great restaurants and shopping. I wish we would have skipped Tekapo and stayed here another night or two instead.

We stayed as a family (2 adults, 2 kids) in the 3-bedroom chalet โ€” ideal for a group of six. The layout was roomy enough for the four of us and likely perfect for accommodating six comfortably. The full kitchen was a huge bonus: we could prepare meals ourselves which made things far easier and more relaxed than relying on restaurants for every meal. For a family with kids, having that kitchen made everything so much more convenient. The location is absolutely amazing. The chalet has lovely lake and mountain views and is only a short walk from the lakefront, town centre shops, cafes and restaurants. We walked almost everywhere during our stay โ€” and that easy access made for a very relaxed holiday rhythm. One highlight: on a family-bike day around the lake we appreciated how easy it was to return to the motel for quick breaks or โ€œnature-callโ€ stops, thanks to the proximity and convenience. Having a central base like this really made it easier to enjoy the lake and surrounding scenery without having to plan around a car. Overall โ€” great for a family getaway: roomy chalet, useful kitchen, unbeatable location and lovely views. If you want to be close to the lake/town and enjoy self-catering and flexibility, this place works wonderfully.

Studio or Chalet

Beware your booking is Studio or Chalet. My booking is Studio and it's actually the basement of private room (rentaler living?). All other are Chalets with better quality. Studio has window but you can't see outside scenery as you are in basement. All facilities are ok and room has reasonable size.There are 4 parking spaces only and you can park at opposite public car with unlimited time. The location is at the middle of lake front so you are conveniently going to both sides.

We booked this stay through Expedia on November 13, still planning rest of trip and decided maybe best to stay 2 nights in Wฤnaka, messaged hotel directly asking if we could add a night. No response so booked in Twizel. Arrive in Wanaka for our 1 night stay and leave next morning and PIp says no you are staying 2 nights thatโ€™s why I upgraded you. I said you never sent me a confirmation email, she said I did the 13th our stay was the 15th and we were flying from Sydney. You canโ€™t wait a month to say yes you have a room available another night. I asked for a refund for second night and she said thatโ€™s not possible. I need to get a cleaning lady in here and hope I can rent room. I offered to help clean room and there was only 1 other family there. I will be disputing charge with my credit card!
