Guests can take in the views of the mountain from the balcony, which also has outdoor furniture. For added privacy, the accommodation has a private entrance and soundproofing. 1. The owner is extremely helpful and friendly. 2. Though, it is 10 miles from downtown, but the driving time is only 11 minutes. so it is actually very convinient. 3. The setting of the place is beautiful and we have our own small house. From the backyard, we can see the mountains, the view is just unbelievable. 4. It is very quiet and you can even star gazing at night, which we did and this is something I have always want to do. 5. Given the surrounding, location and facility, the price is very reasonable. If we go to Wanaka again, we will definitely stay here again.
