We stayed in a standard double. Many bathroom shower facilities around, nice and modern. we even had a sink in our room. noce big open kitchen space and breathtaking views from the lounge and dining room. would very much recommend and stay here again.

By far the nicest hostel we stayed in during 2.5 weeks in NZ. Great facilities, great views, fantastic price. We stayed in the twin ensuite, due to the double being booked.

We stayed in a double with private ensuite and got the one on the end, facing the lake. It was a good sized room and everything was clean. The kitchen was well equipped and up to date. The property in general was well located overlooking the harbor and also within walking distance of the very quaint town of Wanaka (Where... More

I just wanted to pass Wanaka on my way to Queenstown -but I stayed almost for a week in this awesome hostel. Wonderful location, close to city, quiet, close to lage and walkways, bike rental and, most important, clean, good beds, greate kitchen and relaxed and community.

They basically just said they were sorry but they had no other space. We all go to bed early as we have an early morning start on a multi-day snow trip... More

Situated above the Marina, the views are just mind blowing! Lovely place, nice and clean common rooms and places to relax. The staff are helpful and friendly (bikes for hire!). We... More

We came as a party of 5, my parents, aunt & uncle. Stayed here only for a night before heading to Queenstown, wished we could have stayed longer. Reception was good, Ian & Liz, were friendly & helpful. This place seated on a hill surrounded by bushes & trees which is a very good thing. From the reception area &... More
