Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Wānaka

A beautiful home that was peaceful and serene surrounded by calming nature. We’ve had some of the best sleeps of our lives during our 3 nights here. The private hot tub with the amazing view under the stars was awesome too. A perfect way for us to end our NZ trip.

Four of us (couples in 70s & 30s) have just enjoyed a lovely 3 nights in Tarras..facilities exactly as set out, any questions/issues promptly resolved by friendly and welcoming host..the cottage particularly warm..other highlights looking up at the night sky and the wine tasting (and buying)..yes, an unsealed road on approach but no issues if driving appropriately..

Julianne’s home was perfect for our stay. Situated in a superb location to enjoy all that is special about Wanaka. Fabulous views over Lake Wanaka and the mountains. Magical sunsets. Beautiful surrounds all walkable. Peaceful neighbourhood. A very spacious and comfortable home with everything we needed and more. Thank you Julianne for being a superhost. Very easy to communicate with and clear instructions before arrival much appreciated.

Tom’s place was spacious and comfortable, beautifully furnished and well equipped. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Thanks Tom for the stay.

Modern, clean with everything we needed, located within beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Just a 10-15 walk to the lakefront cafes and shops. We loved waking up to the sounds of natives birds.

We enjoyed our staying at this lovely, cozy and well prepared place. The house is beautiful and the kitchen is organised perfect and easy to use. The location to the town centre is great only 5 mins taking to pretty all of restaurants and marts. Definitely recommend this place.

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful Airbnb in Wānaka. The home was warm, comfortable, and perfectly presented, with thoughtful touches throughout that made it feel so inviting. The outlook was absolutely stunning — peaceful, private, and a true reflection of the natural beauty of the region. The spa was a standout feature — soaking under the stars in the crisp mountain air was something we won’t forget. Check-in was seamless, everything was clearly laid out, and we felt at ease from the moment we arrived. This place truly felt like a retreat, and we’d come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a serene and memorable stay in Wānaka.

Leanne was friendly and responsive, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommended – would definitely stay again!

We had a lovely stay at Megan’s place. Perfect for two, looked exactly like the pictures. The studio was clean and was exactly what we needed. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to others. Megan was quick at responding and allowed us to check out later with no issues:))

Thank you for having us. Great place to stay. Will have to visit again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Celia’s place. Celia was friendly and very helpful. Her Airbnb was spotless and was in a quite location

Very clean house; looked just like the photos. Well stocked kitchen and super close market to walk to made cooking easy. Jill also included a notebook with clear instructions and stuff to do in the area.

Robyn is a sweet and thoughtful host and it reflects in her home as well. She turned on the heater before we arrived so we were welcomed into a warm and toasty home. Beds were comfortable, bathroom and kitchen were spotless. She lives next door and our kids enjoyed playing with her friendly dog Molly.

I found Uli’s place to be clean and peaceful during my stay. It has everything you need and is quiet, making it suitable for anyone who enjoys spending time alone. It’s a small town, and I took my time walking around. However, it takes about 30 to 40 minutes to walk to the lake. Be aware that there was some road construction ongoing, which made for a lot of uneven surfaces. Despite these, the property was great, and I would definitely book it again for my next trip.

Excellent location, 3 minute walk to town. Amazing views of the lake and mountains. The house was lovely and clean. There was even games and books there for our kids to use

We had an absolutely perfect stay at this Airbnb! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail was thoughtfully considered — from the well-stocked kitchen to the cozy bedding and relaxing atmosphere. The location was ideal, quiet yet conveniently close to everything we needed. Communication with the host was seamless and welcoming. Truly one of the best stays we've ever had — we can’t recommend it highly enough and would definitely love to return!

Location is great with private parking so you don’t have to worry about finding one far away and shifting luggages. The place I clean and near most of the needed amenities, beautiful surrounding and walking distance to the lake. Full function kitchen with no restriction of what are allowed to be cooked. Jane is a wonderful host ensuring our safe arrival and proactively helped us check on the status of the road closure, ensuring our safe arrival. We were greeted with a warm welcome, chocolate and a pre warmed house. :)

We could not have loved Wanaka and this condo more! Everything was so clean, located close to the town area, and Alex & Jesper were wonderful hosts! It was 3 days of bliss for us. We would go back in a heartbeat.

The apartment was spacious, homely and clean. Some people might have a difficult carrying their luggage up 2 flights of stairs as it was on the 3rd floor. We were blessed to have a quiet stay, as the restaurant on the 2nd floor was closed temporarily during our stay. Host is responsive and helpful, will recommend for a short stay!

Our stay at Carmen’s was one of the best stays we had during our time in New Zealand. The apartment had everything you could want, including a nice box of chocolates on arrival! It was a walkable distance into the restaurants/bars in Wanaka, while also being private and peaceful. The apartment was spotlessly clean, and very comfortable, perfect for our stay in Wanaka. Finally Carmen was a pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend staying here!
