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!!!

We stayed here as part of our honeymoon trip, and it was truly one of the highlights! Jay and Nikki’s guesthouse is cozy, peaceful, and full of personal touches that made us feel right at home. The space was clean, comfortable, and beautifully set up — much better than any hotel we’ve stayed in! Communication was smooth and warm from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to relax and enjoy Wanaka. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet and heartfelt stay. We hope to return someday!

Wanaka has so much to offer as a destination in New Zealand.

Wanaka has so much to offer as a destination in New Zealand. Lots of hikes, beautiful countryside and activities. We had 5 nights but could easily have stayed longer, it was sad to leave. The Roy's Peak climb is epic if you have the stamina and Puzzling World is well worth the visit.

Awesome little town with so much to do.

Awesome little town with so much to do. The town itself is small but it has a coupple of nice restaurants and shops. But the surroundings are what makes Wanaka special. A lot of hikes, mountainbiking and other outdoor avtivities. Don't forget to check the cinema Paradiso. One of the cutest cinemas you'll ever visit. You can order cookies before the film and they bake them fresh so you have warm cookies during the break ;-)

Wanaka is gorgeous, peaceful, so quiet...and yet so many things to do. So many hikes. Water sports. Amazing restaurants, with plenty of choices for vegetarians (and even vegans). Easy to get around. Easy to park. Community events. So far, our favorite place in New Zealand.

Beautiful lake and mountain views.

Beautiful lake and mountain views. It’s an LONG winding mountain road from Queenstown…you wouldn’t want to be commuting back and forth from there (like I thought we were going to do!) Ate dinner at a fabulous Indian and Nepalese restaurant just back from the main road (top ranking restaurant on Trip Advisor). The tree in the lake was a bit of a funny “tourist attraction!”

A modern apartment with lovely area for cooking and dining. Nice view from outside. Handy being next to supermarket and hotel for food. Being able to get a second night at short notice was great. It was a short drive into Wanaka and it’s attractions.

Everything at Edgewater Hotel felt very high-end! We only stayed for one night on our way to Mount Cook Village, but we definitely thought it would be a great place to stay at with the whole family for a week. We highly recommend!

The lovely lady owner was very accomodating. The hotel rooms are more of a bed and breakfast type set up. The self contained rooms are very spacious and well equiped. The owner couldn’t have been more helpful to us.
