The unit was very comfortable. Our only concern was that we were not aware of the loud expansion noises that comes with a lockwood-type home. Had we been aware of this, we would not have booked. Plus the walls between units need better insulation as we had to put up with conversion next door at 1am for about 1.5hrs.

Great location in Wānaka for walking, shopping, groceries, and dining. Spacious balcony at our room with nice view for an evening drink. Area was quiet after 10:00 pm. With some street noise before that (we were there on a Friday night). Nicely stocked kitchen, but bathroom was stocked with only hand wash soap dispenser at single (body wash?) dispenser in shower Used our own shampoo, conditioner, and body balm. Room had unique “ski chalet” appearance with wooden planks on walls and ceilings, Great look, but apparently the warm day and cool night, the result was a “popping noise” of shifting planks. If you are light sleeper, this is not a good option for you. Overall, a pleasant stay for us.

The room had a sink to wash cups etc but it drained in to the overflow of the bath/shower tub causing the water to flow in to the bath/shower tub leaving black bits in it - yuck!! One of the wall lights was held on with electrician's tape and another had no glass cover. The mattress was lacking in padding so not a very comfortable night. The shower also had a constant drip which could be heard in the bedroom.
