We stayed there for a short stay- 1 night only- but the hosts were very welcoming and made us feel at home instantly. It was hard for the taxi to find the place as it was off the main road. The house and rooms were cosy but we had to share the shower (which was OK since we were staying... More

Very helpful with the area and we even enjoyed a couple of evenings of playing cards together. AAAAA+++++ homestay!!! Annie and... More

If you want to visit Wanaka (which you should!!!) and want to stay on a quiet place on walking distance from the center of the village, I advise you to book a place at Collinsons Cottage B & B. Not only will you find owners Susanne and Brian very pleasant hosts, but, as a couple, you will have the choice... More

Our stay at the Cottage was only for 2 nights but I wish we could have stayed longer as the cottage was fantastic, well laid out, gorgeous views and completely self contained. It was really like a home from home but with better views. Brian showed us around his fantastic garden and made us feel welcome without intruding on our... More

We stayed 5 nights at the Collinson's Apartment. The house is well equipped, the view from the balcony over the gardens gorgeous and the hosts were super friendly. Some of us being coffee fiends, we'd bought a coffee plunger just before arriving. We were pleasantly to surprised to find a moka pot on the shelf! Not only were their a... More

As you can see from the reviews below Susanne and Brian are truly thoughful hosts who will go the extra mile to ensure their guests have a wonderful stay. I left my spectacles behind at their B&B and they immediately posted them back to my address in Christchurch - they arrived home before I did! I highly recommend this B&B... More

Hi This is a long review, but I couldn't cut down anything about our experience... We were in NZ for our honeymoon, and planned to start our South Island tour with Wanaka. We did not want to have an expensive accommodation here, but just to relax, since, we had already booked an expensive one in Queenstown for our longer stay.... More

We stayed one night at Collinson's Cottage (Jan. 2006). We stayed in the studio and had a lovely time. It was nicely appointed and had everything that we needed - full kitchen, laundry facilities, and very nice bathroom. The location is in a quiet residential neighborhood and the breakfast room has beautiful views of Lake Wanaka. The cottage is a... More

The Collinsons are very welcoming and friendly hosts. The rooms are very comfortable and spotlessly clean, as is the bathroom. There is a very comortable guests' lounge with tea/coffee making facilities. The garden and views are stunning. However, I would not recommend this property if you do not have your own transport. The breakfast time 7-8.30 am is a little... More
