Great Place
We spent three weeks in New Zealand. This was our favorite place. It is a pleasant short walk to town. I like to swim, and was able to just walk across the street and jump into cold clear water. The house is very comfortable, homey and well cared for. Great view of the water from the patio. Friendly owner.

Excellent Stay
We enjoyed the Absolute Lakefront unit and would stay again if we found ourselves headed to Wanaka. It was comfortable and a good location for Mt. Aspiring NP. The location was quieter than we expected, easy to access with a view of the lake from the front door. We enjoyed hiking to the Mt. Aspiring hut - the Google lies, it does not take 2 hours to get to the trailhead, unless you're terribly distracted by the scenery. Other hiking opportunities abounded. The shower curtain made us smile (the perfect kind of quirky) ;-)

Set on a quiet road. Short, lakeside walk into town. Well equipped. Great view. We especially enjoyed being able to do some great, lakeside walks without having to drive anywhere.

Old and Quirky Indeed!
This property is described as old and quirky. I agree with the old part, but quirky has a positive connotation that we did not experience. A better description is bizarre! When we arrived after 3pm the house hadn't been cleaned - dirty sheets on the bed, dirty towels on the washing machine, rubbish left, dirty carpets and toilet! We were not impressed. I contacted the owner. First she blamed the cleaners, then she said someone must have broken in and left the mess. I told her I would take phots to show her, which I did. Then she forgot people were there before us and her sister would have to come to clean. We had to go into town for 1 hour and 30 minutes. When we returned almost 2 hours later, the sister was still cleaning. We finally settled in and then had a problem with the upstairs tenant. We were relaxing in the backyard when she came and tried to put our chairs away. We said we weren't done with them yet. She was very rude to us! You won't need an alarm clock either because these tenants wake up at 6:15am every morning and are very loud. The property is not like its description. It is not absolute lakefront but across the road and down a hill from the lake with cars parked along the road obstructing the view. The bedrooms are small. If you are too big you won't fit in the toilet or the shower. But if you are too small you can't reach the microwave perched on top of the fridge. Furniture is old and dishes are mis-matched. No hair dryer. A bad experience for us in Wanaka!

Having just walked the Arrowtown to Wānaka section of the TA with my family it was a perfect place to stay, handy to town. We were able to get all the washing and organizing done for the next section right next to the trail! Yes quirky but everything you need and incredible views.

Stunning Location
We absolutely loved our stay here. We could quite easily have sat and watched the view change throughout the day but we did manage to get out. Easy walk into the town. The property was as listed and we wouldn’t have changed a thing about it.
