    The lake frontage with stunning views of the mountains and lake and choices of eateries catering for vegetarians Good parking but roadworks made it difficult at times to get around Would recommend the Big Fig for vegetarians and Charlie Brown for great crepes

    We were amazed by the location near the lake with clean air, nice ambience in the Hotel Restaurant, with good food! I should have reserved 2 or 3 nights there. We booked 3 rooms all of us enjoyed it. Can swim, water activities and more.

    Wanaka is the most beautiful place to visit

    Wanaka is the most beautiful place to visit The views of the lake and surrounding area are really stunning. It’s seemed a really peaceful place with just enough to do. Plenty of eating out places to choose from and many activities and places to visit. We will definitely be back.

    A wholesome town just outside of Queenstown.

    A wholesome town just outside of Queenstown. I could've stayed here weeks. It was a great location to be based at for Roy's Peak Summit, more hiking and days spent by the lake. Bonus activity was a dinner and movie night at Cinema Paradiso. A really lovely town with a very live-able atmosphere.

    Wanaka itself is a lovely spot.

    Wanaka itself is a lovely spot. It was lovely without being too much of a tourist trap. The art gallery I visited was very good, and the two local restaurants also good and reasonably priced. The staff at the Thai restaurant were especially friendly and helpful. I wish I had stayed long enough to drive out to a few places from Wanaka.

    What a place! The apartment is stylishly designed, furnished to a high standard, well equipped and the hosts are fantastic. Kauri House Apartment offers a great place to stay in Wanaka. Bill and Noelene are kind, generous and hospitable hosts. Their level of hospitality is really over and above what you might imagine. And breakfast? Also superb. It really would not be out of place in a high end hotel. If you get the opportunity, you should book Kauri House for your stay in Wanaka - don't even hesitate a second!

    Hosts Noelene and Bill were very friendly and very helpful. The apartment is well equipped right down to potato chips, nuts and the free breakfast was amazing, using fresh home grown vegetables. On arrival we received a chilled wine. The views from this beautiful apartment are amazing, high up on the hilltop overlooking Lake Wanaka. This is value for money. Would highly recommend. Once again, thank you Noelene and Bill for your amazing hospitality.

    Everything was perfect! Location couldn’t be better! A really cozy apartment with a fireplace for cold times and an A/C to fight the intense heat of summer. Excellent kitchen with everything one may need. Super good and modern shower. A deck with a wooden table and chairs with the lake view for meals outside. And of course a super friendly host! Definitely the best hotel among all those that we stayed in during out trip on the South Island!

    This was an outstanding apartment. It was enormous, clean and well appointed. The outside patio was huge with a dining table for 6 and 2 lounge chairs. The views were spectacular of the lake and mountains. The location was right in town so it was easy to walk to everything. We stayed in 11 hotels during our trip and this was one of our favorites by far.

    The hotel is centrally located with easy walk to shops, restaurants and lake. Parking is next door and you are given a hotel sticker for display. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room is of average size but also has a balcony with a view. Room had everything we needed for our stay. Bed was comfortable and there was ventilation.

    This was a SPECTACULAR home away from home, close to town with magnificent views of the lake and snow capped mountains. It felt like a home not a hotel, and we were so comfortable for our stay in Wanaka. The beds were comfy, it was warm and had everything we needed.

    The rural setting was beautiful. Waking up to SILENCE was FABULOUS !! Unlike staying in a motel or hotel .... there was no-one else to make noise or interrupt your stay .... THAT, made it all wonderful. We would stay again and recommend it to family and friends.

    Lovely, private apartment at the back of the host's property. Around 20-30mins walking distance to the city centre, which is a beautiful walk. The street is safe and quiet. We enjoyed our stay there and can highly recommend.

    The location is very good and easy walk to many restaurants. The only cheap hotel that I can find during this period. Others are so expensive and the locations are not as good as this hotel. It is clean.
