Time Out at Cadrona

The premises is part of a recently built village just south of the well known Cadrona Hotel. Consequently it has all of the modern conviences one would expect. Very comfortable and quiet. If you are looking for somewhere to stay other than the commercial areas of Queenstown or Wanaka, I suggest this might be for you. If you are looking for conversation, a short walk to Cadrona Hotel. Enjoy

Great place to get away

Its a great spot to get away. Just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Queenstown but close enough to be convenient. Was perfectly clean and well presented and the the owners we more than happy to give us details about the area after reaching out to them. The surroundings are just amazing and an amazing break from our normally very busy lives. Thank you for sharing :-)

15 mins away from Wanaka

Great place, short walk to the iconic Cardrona tavern, LOVED IT! Helpful locals. Unfortunately we didn't take advantage of the spa or swimming pool, we were too busy visiting beautiful Wanaka and were blessed to stay at this place at the right time because we got to experience Tuki festival with beautiful views. Our hosts were welcoming and helpful . Only a phone call away even when they were in Auckland. Recommend totally. Awesome spot.
