Local cafes, restaurants, spa treatments, and the Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa are all within a few minutes walking distance. Venture out for a bushwalk or go off-road for a mountain bike or 4WD tour. For the adrenaline junkies white water rafting or bungy jumping is on the ‘must-do list.

Nice home and getaway
Home is nice, view is beautiful, just a few small complaints. The driveway is only designed for Suv's and trucks with ground clearance. This needs to be noted as my car got damaged. The camera facing out onto the deck felt a bit invasive.Towels,bedsheets and spa really needs to be included in the vost. anf

Disappointing
Unfortunately my worst experience with a holiday home. We ended up staying elsewhere and left 10 minutes after arriving. First of all property was nothing like the photos. It was very small and outdated, pics made it look so much bigger. There was also a security camera facing the back bbq/decking area which felt like a huge invasion of privacy. I booked this trip for my recently widowed sister and family who flew down from Auckland. Unfortunately as someone who was a first time user of bookabach we were unaware that we were meant to bring our own bed linen (which is difficult when flying from outside of Christchurch. When i called the owner to ask if i could hire some linen (very basic request) i was absolutely shocked by the way in which she spoke. I was told on the phone she would rather just ‘cancel the booking’ after spending so much time/travel etc flying from Auckland. We were told it was ‘disgusting’ not to bring linen. I requested the hot tub which was locked when i arrived and when i asked about this was told that if im not going to be responsible enough to fill the tub up to just not bother using it. Overall just a really condescending unpleasant woman to deal with. I have never been spoken to in such an inappropriate manner from someone in the hospitality sector. Honestly do yourself a favour and dont book this house. Its cheap for a reason!

Great place to stay
Love this house, love the view, the ease of access to Conical Hill and the walking tracks. It's well laid out with the bedrooms downstairs, plenty of comfy beds, fire place upstairs which allows the house to get really warm, the kids loved the loft. Everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. The hot tub was awesome too. Loved the stay. Thank you :)

Good family sized home but needs some work
Lovely view. The driveway is quite dangerous, we tried to drive up it but decided to park out on the road. House was roomy and had all we needed but not very clean on arrival and couches/beds were pretty dated.We had thought there was a pool but turns out that was just the hot tub. Owner contacted several times with lengthy conversations as was getting hot tub fixed when we were there...was meant to be a couple of hours but the man was there all day until 6

Great Location
Communication with host was terrible. Also, I knowing that 10 people were going to be there for 2 nights we were left with 4 toilet rolls. Spa wasnt working when i requested it via text and bookabach message. Only to be advised at 11pm the nignt we got there it hasnt been working for ages. The spa was one of the reasons we chose that property.

Great stay, amazing location and house
Had a group of 7 adults, there were plenty of sleeping spots, great cooking utilities and heating options provided. Only critique is that the loft has not had proper cleaning in some time and so has an off putting smell.

Solid little Hanmer bach
Nice solid bach with some amazing views in a great part of Hanmer. 4 proper bedrooms with tons of beds, and extra couches for kids who like to shift in the night! Bedrooms are all on ground floor with a bathroom, living/dining room on first level with deck and a loft above living room. Loft ladder is a vertical ladder on wall with no sides and loft has no way to lock it or secure so active supervision of young kids required. Flooring has no insulation so any light sleepers will hear every footstep from living area. Outdoor hot tub is good but an extra $30 a day to use. Would recommend and happily stay again - thanks!
