Rooms where clean and son had a room to himself which he enjoyed, pool and hot tub were great to use after days activities, bar could have been open more but realise it's late in season.

Great staff
Super friendly staff. They were hard workers, cleaning in the mornings and painting in the afternoon. I lied that someone was always around to ask questions or offer help.

Everything was amazing, only thing that would have made our experience there better would have been if our room got serviced whilst we were out and about.

Lovely place to stay. Beautiful apartment with a lovely view. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed for supper the evening we arrived and we hadn’t been notified until our arrival.
Facilities were excellent and clean.
Bed was comfortable.
View was stunning.
Unfortunately our outside door to the apartment opened during the night. Slightly unsettling.

Tidy resort with hot pools
Nice hotel with great pools and hit pools. Rooms are tidy, but can be loud if you someone is in the upstairs unit. A car is needed because it is quite far from central Wanaka

Great pools but unsafe to get in and out if unsteady on your feet.
Likewise the bath-shower didn’t have a nonslip mat.

Lovely apartment with everything provided. Huge balcony with views over the mountains. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed, as it was full every day with group bookings, and one day the bar was closed too. In the apartment the shower was running cold. Maintenance tried to fix it, but it still didn’t work. Hence the 4 star rating, but everything else was great

The resort was really good for the pools, the relaxing feel to it, and just out of the busy heart of Wanaka. It was a great place to relax after a few days of tramping.
