Also this property has a wood burner so please be careful operating it with young children present.

I live locally so I am never too far away.

This property is very close to the centre of Wanaka.

There is no public transport in Wanaka so hiring a car is advised. Although due to the close walking distance this home offers to the Wanaka Township where you can easily hire bikes you may decide against car rental.

Once your booking is confirmed, you will be directed to our guest app. Prior to check-in, you will be required to complete an identity check by scanning your licence/passport and credit card before being provided with your arrival instructions. This provides security for the owners of the property so they are comfortable that you are who you say you are and you have the documents to prove it (similar to a hotel check-in procedure). We do not charge your card, nor does it get stored by our system, and you are welcome to block out some numbers, but please note that our Guest App has the highest level of PCI compliance available. This process is necessary due to the fact that we have a self-check-in system.

Wanaka stay
We loved staying at this house with lots of room and an excellent location. The only thing I would say is there could have been more toilet paper and rubbish bags but other than that it was great!

nice place
Had a great stay. Just a bit disappointed with the internet. with unlimited broadband packages pretty standard around the country, we were a bit miffed to be limited to 1 gig per day. We all thought it a bit ridiculous.
