Wanaka Lake Studio (New)
We loved our stay at Gills. Place was immaculate and matched the pictures. Gill was very responsive with any questions and gave excellent recommendations. We only had one night but wish we could have stayed longer

Studio Apartment @ Cherry Tree Farm
A true bed and breakfast in a sea of stale air bnbs! Sharon met me upon arrival and showed me to my private abode in the center of a working cherry (and other things!) farm. The fridge was stocked with eggs, milk, butter and bread, and there was a nespresso machine + a selection of teas. She also gave me a book of local wineries and their backgrounds which I greatly appreciated and used throughout my stay. Would stay here again if I’m ever back in the area!

Garden Cabin with Mountain Views- Outdoor Bath!
Amanda was very nice to welcome us to her place. She gave a really details instruction. You will have everything you need, and especially you have mount views. The restaurant, supermarkets are nearby. The best and special thing is that there is a Sauna. We enjoyed it a lot!

Peak-Sportchalet - 2-bedroom Chalet
Really lovely house with a sweet little garden at the back. We were travelling with two small children and it was perfect. A lovely distance from the town and really nice walks nearby. The house was spotless and had super comfy beds and an amazing shower. We would definitely return. Thank you so much for having us!

Secluded Sanctuary, Stunning Mtn Views, nr Wanaka❤
We had a great stay at this wonderful spot! My wife, 11-month old, and I stayed for 4 nights. Cozy, clean, peaceful. Randall and Amanda were welcoming and extremely helpful. Loved the fresh bread, eggs, & jam and the apples and almonds straight off the trees! We were happy to support and experience this sustainable, off-grid farm. Would definitely stay again if we end up back in the area. =)

Peninsula Bay Guest House
Our two-night stay at Sharon’s guest house was perfect. The living space was excellent, opening up to an outdoor area where we could relax in the sunshine and enjoy the spectacular views. The well-equipped kitchen and underfloor heating in the bathroom made our stay even more comfortable. Thank you, Sharon!

The Studio - Modern stay in Old Cromwell
Another great stay at Sarah’s place. Very cosy on these colder nights. I’ll be back again for work 🙂

Relaxing 1 bedroom studio with a private deck area
Very convenient location, just a few minutes drive from the town center! It was nice and cozy unit in a quiet neighborhood… Sandy was very responsive and helpful with addressing our needs. Great stay and would recommend!

Glencairn
Further out of Arrowtown Junction than expected, but loved the rural location. Very well equipped property, plenty of space and really good separation between the two bedrooms. Both Danielle and Glenn great to talk to and very helpful Would definitely stay there again

Self-Contained Wanaka GuestHouse
Great place to stay, comfy bed and big bathroom with nice shower, quiet neighbourhood 15-20 mins from lakefront. Quick communication and easy check in. Thank you!

Peaceful Private unit, a rural farmstay
This was my second time staying here and it was just as amazing as the first! The house is modern, smart, clean, and very comfortable, with brand new facilities. I especially loved the smart furniture—the sofa and bed were incredibly cozy, I could lie there all day and not want to get up! The host was very friendly and welcoming. The surroundings are beautiful—you’re truly immersed in nature. At night, you can see countless stars, enjoy a cozy fire with firewood, and spot animals like sheep, cats, and sometimes even rabbits. The mountain view from the window is absolutely stunning. I’ll definitely come back again!

Kowhai Cottage, Dublin Bay Wanaka
kristy is very enthusiastic, thank you for her help, the room has a great view, very quiet

Yaya's House.
Rebecca was responsive and friendly! She even brought us fresh bakes in the morning, which were delicious! The place was clean, well equipped with essential amenities. Just to take note, the unit is further in from the road, so keep an eye out for the unit number. The main door has no blinds/curtains, but Rebecca provides a room divider for you to use if you want more privacy. Loved this place!

Woodpecker Studio
Rob and Shel’s place is a hidden gem. Beautiful and modern, perfect for two people. Parking on their own driveway off to the side with direct access to the little studio. Studio had all the amenities one could need. The place was in a quiet and private neighborhood with such a beautiful landscape of the mountains. Would recommend Rob’s place to anyone looking to stay near Wanaka or even as a stopping point for other nearby cities.

Elegant country hideaway
My time at Sunny's place was delightful. The views were absolutely stunning and I felt right at home. It was a lovely place to relax and unwind. The bed was very comfy and I had all I needed. Sunny was also very responsive and helpful. Thank you Sunny and Selena for a lovely stay!

The Little Stone Cottage
The Little Stone Cottage is an absolute gem—quaint, cozy, and perfectly located just a seven-minute drive from town. We especially loved capturing photos of the iconic Wanaka Tree; its beauty is truly breathtaking. Janet is a fantastic Superhost, living up to the name! She has thoughtfully added all the little touches that make a stay extra special, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience. We highly recommend staying here for two nights—it’s the perfect stopover. Visiting in April was an incredible experience, as the vibrant autumn colors painted the landscape in breathtaking hues. Thank you, Janet, for a wonderful stay! Lynnette & Scott

Rossana’s place was beautiful in rural area yet close enough to city! If you are looking for a peaceful place to stay this is highly recommended. The place lives upto its expectation in terms of hygiene and cleanliness. Would definitely come and stay again.
