Magic place - better than the photos
Magnificent house with very thoughtful and attentive owners. The pictures don't do it justice. The house has excellent views and facilities and is in a nicely manicured estate which is just a quick drive into town for when one needs some contact with humanity. Would definitely stay again.

Amazing Stay
Wonderful house in a great location. Superb views in all directions. Great to come back from a day skiing to light the fire, open a bottle of wine and relax. Kids and adults had a great time. Thank you!

Nice house.
We enjoyed our stay. The house worked very well for 2 families and the movie room was a big hit with the kids. Plenty of room, great views in a nice part of town. We will return for sure.

Luxury
We stayed at this property as a group of 7, and all loved it. There is so much space here, plenty of bathrooms and quality finishes throughout. It really is a home away from home. The added extras really make this place great (pantry supplies, welcome bottle of wine, fresh fruit). We had a minor issue when we checked in and Stephanie (owner) and Jill (Manager) we’re super easy to contact and happy to assist. They both went above and beyond to rectify the problem. Would recommend this house to anyone wanting a relaxing stay in a beautiful setting.

Chic contemporary home with spectacular views
This is a large, clean, spacious contemporary house with large rooms, wide hallways, comfortable bedrooms, modern baths, well equipped kitchen. The windows are huge, with magnificent views of the mountains in all directions. Large sliding doors admit plenty of fresh breezes. A big, sunny home that was a pure pleasure to live in.

We loved our stay in this beautiful house in Wanaka. Great location and a great house for a family.
It was such a pleasure to stay here. The whole process from booking to check in and check out was easy. The owner was very obliging with recommendations for things to do, and generous with their use of the amenities near by (a community pool was great for the kids) and their own equipment (mountain bikes). Would happily stay here again.

This home is in a league of its own.
This home is in a league of its own. The views from almost every room are stunning, and the outside BBQ area makes it difficult to leave. We loved the lounge and dining area with its floor to ceiling windows and indoor-outdoor flow. It was the perfect spot for my bridesmaids to get ready for our wedding. We especially appreciated the small touches like the welcome wine and nibbles, the access to mountain bikes and the butlers pantry of well-stocked basics. Even more beautiful than the photos.

Hi Steph! We had a wonderful week, such a special time with family.
Hi Steph! We had a wonderful week, such a special time with family. The house was perfect, a corner for everyone, Mum and Dad had the downstairs queen, with their own bathroom and easy access to the kitchen to make a quiet milo at 4am. The singles were very comfy and we shared the master, I did not close the blinds at night, I loved looking out to the mountains. We only ate out once, the kitchen was a dream to cater in. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home.

This is a top-class property - we would love to stay again. The house captures great views of the ranges (incl. treble cone) from many rooms. It is well fitted out (feels like a home, not a rental). The welcome gift was a lovely touch, and its a great idea to have a pantry all set to go which you top up as you use.
