    Wanaka is a great little town.

    Wanaka is a great little town. Primarily a stepping stone to the ski resorts. However we did not go the the resorts. We did do a day trip to Blue Pools and the nearby waterfalls (Thunder falls). the drive was scenic and the pools were well worth having a look at. Thunderfalls is certainly a photo spot as well. We circled back to wanaka and had a look at the Wanaka tree. Its a great picture just prior to sunset as the branches of the tree have and orangy color to them.

    Wanaka is a beautiful place, the magnificent scenery , ease to get around and the variety of food options makes it a place to meet a variety of experiences. Cycling along the tracks looked like a exciting option for getting around. Puzzling World was a great family outing and is worth a visit. The illusion rooms are fun and the maze was a great fun challenge.

    Wanaka is stunning.

    Wanaka is stunning. We were there in Autumn and with the leaves changing colour it made for amazing photos. A visit to the Lake Wanaka for the world most photograph tree is a must. Puzzle World is fun and worth the visit. The Wanaka Lavender farm was beautiful and the farm animals is a plus.

    Has come of age in recent years.

    Has come of age in recent years. For older NZ’ers it offers a much more relaxed experience than nearby Queenstown and still has plenty to see and do. The approach from the West Coast through Mt Aspiring reserve can only be described as spectacular. In the fine weather exit over the Crown Range via Cardrona also fits this category.

    Hotel style accommodation right on the lake. Direct access to the walking path around Roy's Bay. Well appointed with coffee maker, kettle, stove, full fridge, crockery. Very comfortable. I enjoyed the heated bathroom and was very appreciative of the washer dryer in room. I noticed they have two EV chargers available as well ($20 flat rate). Delicious dinner at the restaurant there. But quiet and realising at the same time.

    We absolutely loved staying in Wanaka at the luxury Lakeview apartment. We particularly enjoyed the gorgeous view, sauna and bonus pizza stone.. where we enjoyed homemade pizza with a lovely bottle of local bottle of Chardonnay ! The property is so gorgeous we didn’t want to leave. Underfloor heating, spa bath and super comfortable beds. Will definitely be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ five stars all around !

    Great location - only a few mins walk to the lake and center of town. Plenty of options for local café, pubs and restaurants nearby. Our room had an outdoor balcony with a great view of the surrounding mountains and we really appreciate the parking availability at no extra cost!
