The staff were fantastic, very welcoming & engaging! They were also extremely helpful. In particular, Case the Bar Manager & Max the Reception Manager!
The food was fresh & delicious. The King bed was superior quality and extremely comfortable. Rooms well appointed, location & views spectacular.
We will definitely return!

Felt very welcomed by the staff. The chalet had everything we needed. It was clean and very bright. Surroundings are very well kept and nice. Location is either good or bad depending on needs. Its a bit further away from town centre.

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.

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.
We spent two nights in this spacious, comfortable, private and beautifully fitted out loft apartment. Our hosts, Claire and Jim, were warm, friendly and helpful. Claire has thought of everything you could possibly need. The breakfast supplies were varied and generous. The home baked blueberry slice awaiting us on our arrival was delicious. The view from the bed and the verandah of snowcapped mountains and Wanaka Lake was superb. The accommodation's location was perfect for us... an easy five minute drive to the middle of town.
Very Friendly Hosts that came round to welcome us. the property is a self contained annexe to the house and private with its own patio and BBQ. felt very homely after travelling round NZ staying in motor inns and hotels. property had good nformation about things to do in wanaka and books on NZ. it had a washing machine so we were able to do our laundry (at no extra cost). It had all the facilities you would want. was so good we wanted to stay for a few more days, but unfortunately it was already booked.
This place is set up like a classic "motor hotel", with every room being able to park right outside your door, but once inside the quality of the furnishings was like a high-end business class hotel. We all remarked on how everything was so much nicer than one would expect from a "motel". The guy at the front desk was also super nice and helpful. Location, while not much to walk to, was a quick drive to everything, very convenient for travelers with a car.
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!
Decent place in the town centre, good price & value but the room could’ve done with some TLC. The heater was broken and there was a space heater but the room was still pretty chilly. Front desk lady was very friendly. Wifi was also pretty good, which was a nice bonus considering all the other places we’ve stayed had pretty shitty wifi. I’d stay here again if I was on a budget but I’d stay elsewhere if you could afford a bit more :)
Although the room is a little tired it was clean and nicely prepared. The hotel is in a great location in the centre really of the main town. Our room had a view of the lake which was great as most of the rooms (on our level) have a balcony. The lawns and gardens were very pleasant and provided a nice area for adults and children near a great Mexican restaurant and bar. Recommended
This apartment was wonderful! Spectacular views across the lake and mountains. There was so much space and the furnishings are to a high standard. It was great to have a garage to park the car. So nice to have a gas fire and plenty of heating to keep us warm. Jenny and the housekeeping team were really helpful and great to deal with. Very easy, short walk into Wanaka.
Cozy motel, just few minutes walk to all the restaurants, bars, shops and grocery stores. Our host was very informative and helpful, showing us all the attractions of Wanaka. Apartment has everything you need for a short or longer stays. Highly recommended stay. Clean and very comfortable beds.
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.
This hotel is exceptional. The lake views are gorgeous and the staff goes out of their way to accommodate their guests. The apartment is cosy and well-stocked. We can’t wait to stay here again; it was hard to leave!
I'm normally a hotel person but I loved Wanaka Top 10. The staff were amazing and the cabins were exceptional. Clean to a very high standard, comfortable and very relaxing. Great family facilities.
The motels were comfortable and warm. The facilities in the studio were clean and adequate. The 2-bedroom apartment had a great laundry, 2 good bathrooms and good living space for a family.
The rooms were tidy, staff were helpful & friendly and bar with pool table was fun. The kitchen and dining area was good to socialise. The hotel dining area had a nice view of the lake
Owners were very friendly. Room was clean. Location of the motel is quite close to the Wanaka tree. There is also a self-cleaning car wash facility with brush and hose provided.
Very spacious open plan apartment, great to live in, complete kitchen, laundry facilities and only 2 blocks walk until you find yourself in Wanaka town Center!
