Belvedere Apartment 4 minute walk to Wanaka

CatRating, 5 stars2 months ago

We stayed here for over a month and had a wonderful experience. The location is absolutely ideal. It's tucked away on a quiet dead-end street, yet just a 5-minute walk to downtown Wanaka and the lake. It felt very private and peaceful, with no traffic noise, just the sound of the little stream/brook, which we could see and hear from both the bedroom window and the living room balcony. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and we cooked nearly every night. Elizabeth, our host, was incredibly responsive and helped us sort out a minor internet issue right away. We also really appreciated the hospitality—Mike, our local point of contact, even lent us hiking poles for some nearby trails. Overall, a fantastic stay in a beautiful spot. Would absolutely return!

The exterior of the modern apartment complex is shown, featuring a light gray facade and multiple balconies. Stone elements are incorporated at the entrance, while parking spaces for vehicles are visible in the foreground. Lush greenery commences along the side, providing a natural contrast.

Little Nest - Hot tub under the galaxy

EiraRating, 5 stars5 days ago

My husband and I stayed for three nights at the Little Nest and loved it. It was easy to check in and the accommodation was very tidy on arrival. Everything we needed was provided for a comfortable stay. The Little Nest is modern and cute, and in a great location. The street the accommodation was on was beautiful, peaceful and right next to Lake Tekapo. As we stayed during heavy snowfall, the water pipes froze (not the fault of the host, just due to the weather). I contacted the host when this happened and within minutes someone was sent over to help. The man who fixed the issue was so polite, friendly and efficient in solving the problem. We highly recommend The Little Nest for a cosy retreat.

EvelynRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Couldn’t ask for a more gracious host than Dean. He was so helpful and accommodating even before we arrived at his beautiful, modern home. My husband enjoyed the outdoor hot tub every morning. Everything for our comfort was available and Dean was immediately responsive when we had a question or request. Our twin teen girls joined us for 2 weeks while they were on spring break (we rented Dean’s house for the month of March) and when we asked them to name the top 3 highlights of their visit, they said: shotover jet, staying in Dean’s house, luging in Queenstown. Thanks Dean!! 5 stars all the way.
