It was a decent, clean, safe place to stay for one night. :) Staff allowed us a late check-out the morning of, which we really appreciated! Easy parking, good toiletries, simple but efficient kitchenette layout for coffee or tea with a fridge and sink. Nothing fancy, but comfy overall.

Bridget, the motel manager, was lovely—she called ahead to check our arrival time and made sure everything was perfect with the room. The place has been nicely renovated. We drove, so we’re not sure about nearby facilities, but Wanaka is absolutely beautiful.

Lovely stay

The apartment was spacious and warm and bright. There was a full fridge with milk for coffee in little creamer cups and a small washer and dryer with washing powder. It was nicely situated between Puzzling World and the main street.

Fantastic value for luxury apartments

This motel was the best value and best equipped place we stayed in during our tour of the South Island of Nz . The owner was welcoming and accommodating and friendly. It even had a small swimming pool!
