Apartment Lake Front Wanaka

KarenRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Sherril's place was in an ideal location. It was a five minute walk to the lake, restaurants and the grocery store. The view of the lake from the kitchen/living room was spectacular! We liked that each bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped with dishes and flatware. We made use of the washer and dryer in the unit. Sherril was very responsive to our questions. I highly recommend staying in Sherril's place.

Absolute Luxury on the Lakefront

KimiRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We cannot recommend Maria's place in Wanaka more! In my experience, it is not common for an Airbnb to exceed expectations, but this beautiful property did that and more! The apartment is pristine, the view unbelievable, and the very easy walk to and from town made this location a dream! It was wonderfully peaceful and quiet, truly a highlight of our time in New Zealand. We will absolutely return and hope to stay with Maria again. Thank you so much for having us!

Lakeside Road New 2 Bed Room Apartment

JaredRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Although we only stayed 1 night, it was the most memorable accommodation of our South Island trip. Great views in such a peaceful location of Wanaka that feels like you’ve transported into a completely different world. The guesthouse was immaculate and in pristine condition. Everything was perfect. Leigh was also a very active and fantastic host providing lots of recommendations and details. Thank you very much. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Nautilus Penthouse | Lakefront | Walk to town

DrewRating, 5 stars11 months ago
Even more beautiful than the pictures. The balcony is sublime and it’s a short walk to the downtown restaurants on a very pleasant boardwalk. We also enjoyed the pool and hot tub on the complex property.

THE BLACK SHACK - LAKE HAWEA

JessicaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This place is absolutely magical! The view from the front lawn is outstanding and the cottage is adorable and had everything we needed. It's a true gem and feels very much like a classic good old kiwi bach. We and our dog loved it and are planning to come back again.

Thanks Amanda. We had a fabulous break at your lovely home in Lake Hawea. The lake was breathtaking, we had a brilliant outdoor time on bikes and walks and we loved our meals at the Lake Hawea hotel.

Archtecturally Designed Home with Stunning Views

Christine AnneRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We felt right at home as soon as we arrived and the house met all our expectations. It’s in a fabulous location overlooking the lake and mountains, with the local pub, shop and cafe all excellent and so convenient. A short trip to lovely Wanaka can provide all you nay need for your stay. Our host, Sarah responded to all our queries promptly and made us feel welcome to her home. Every aspect of the property was clean, neat and had everything you could want for a relaxing stay. Thanks Sarah we hope to be back one day, there’s just too much to see and do around the area. We were happy travellers and would definitely recommend this property.

That Wanaka Tree House - BEST Lake Front Location

TimRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This home is absolutely perfect for families or a large group. We could not have asked for a better place to spend a week together with extended family and friends. The place is huge and spacious both inside and out, with toys for the kids and nice rest areas for the adults to relax and socialise. The location is stunning, private and so easily accessible to the lake and the trail that takes you to town. We would 100 percent stay here again if we could! Julian is a fantastic host and always did his best to help if we needed it, which wasn’t often as the place is fully kitted out.
