A beautiful, comfortable and cosy studio to explore Wanaka with everything you could need for a short-stay. The host went out of her way to ensure we had what we needed, including an early check-in as my partner had a migraine. Hassle-free parking, a short and enjoyable stroll into town. We would happily stay here again.

The whole place was excellent. The location near the beach which the excellent host Jay pointed out to us was an added bonus. We had the privilege of seeing Adele in concert a few years ago. The shower cubicle in the bathroom reminded us of the set she used in the song ‘Set Fire to the Rain’. The song concept makes no sense but the shower was amazing just like at Minaret Ridge!

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!”

Hotel is located just a short walk down to the lake. Across the road is where the food trucks are, which is actually a great alternative for an evening meal. Room itself is clean and warm, if a little small.
