The spot of the studio was great, very easy to get to the famous Wānaka Tree. Also, we loved the letter from Goe, which is full of recommendations about everything around the studio. That was so kind of her. We felt quite cozy and relaxed in Goe’s studio, especially the massage chair, the comfortable sofa, the bright bathroom, and the beautiful kitchen. Goe was really nice to us that she waited at the door to greet and welcome us. The handwritten letter was very lovely. Thanks for everything. We had a wonderful night in Wānaka!!!

It was a beautiful home and there was lots of private spaces for my family of 5 persons. It was well equipped for cooking at home too. Also liked the fact that it was in a quiet neighborhood but close to town.
