Studio Apartment @ Cherry Tree Farm
A true bed and breakfast in a sea of stale air bnbs! Sharon met me upon arrival and showed me to my private abode in the center of a working cherry (and other things!) farm. The fridge was stocked with eggs, milk, butter and bread, and there was a nespresso machine + a selection of teas. She also gave me a book of local wineries and their backgrounds which I greatly appreciated and used throughout my stay. Would stay here again if I’m ever back in the area!

The Studio @ The Old Naseby School House
Very cosy studio with very comfortable bed and everything we needed for a short stay in Naseby. We enjoyed being close to the forest and the cafe!

Garden Cabin with Mountain Views- Outdoor Bath!
Location location location! I came to Wanaka specifically for attractions around the Lake and Amanda’s place was close to everything I wanted to see. The bath is a really nice touch and as a solo traveler (especially as a woman) I felt very safe.

Arrowtown Lodge Luxury Garden Cottage
Awesome walking location to all Arrowtown main st . Spa was well received after golf and biking activities . Outdoor lounge is great under cover for summer rains and comfy. Everything you need here . We loved it .

Peak-Sportchalet - 2-bedroom Chalet
Really lovely house with a sweet little garden at the back. We were travelling with two small children and it was perfect. A lovely distance from the town and really nice walks nearby. The house was spotless and had super comfy beds and an amazing shower. We would definitely return. Thank you so much for having us!

Sunny & Modern, Garden Cottage
Great place to stay with stunning views and very peaceful. The cottage had everything we needed

Charming Arrowtown Sanctuary
We really enjoyed our stay in this pretty cottage. The area is super convenient and Shantelle was really easy to communicate with and responded far more quickly than I expected. The unit is toasty warm and the bed comfortable with a very fluffy duvet and excellent pillows. Lots of power outlets are available for charging phones and devices. The whole place was very clean. There is nice glassware and crockery. As stated in the listing, the only cooking is on the BBQ outside or the microwave so we elected to enjoy the wonderful restaurants around the area - thanks for the recommendations Shantelle!. There is a great small supermarket across the road for bits and pieces. The towels were clearly line dried which was lovely and the shower has great water pressure and heats quickly.

Delightful Detached Apartment
Great stay, fully equipped, especially the kitchen.The best choice to climb Isthmus Peak

Peninsula Bay Guest House
We Loved our short stay at this wonderful little cottage. When we arrived the sun was about to set behind the mountains which was really beautiful. The cottage was everything we needed and saw in the photos. Very warm from the sunshine during the afternoon and speaking of warm. The underfloor heating in the bathroom was to die for!! Great little kitchen that if you really wanted to you could get stuck in and prepare yourself a feast. We spent two nights in a very comfortable bed and this is so important when you are travelling. Nothing worse than waking up crippled. Lots of fun driving about the urban streets of Wanaka to get to our destination. Once you are in there the views remind you of why you booked this spot. We will definitely be looking to book this little gem when we return to Wanaka in the future

Sunny studio in a quiet suburb
Nice place for a short stay for visiting Queenstown. Close to the airport so you will hear some of that traffic if you're a light sleeper.

Relaxing 1 bedroom studio with a private deck area
Very convenient location, just a few minutes drive from the town center! It was nice and cozy unit in a quiet neighborhood… Sandy was very responsive and helpful with addressing our needs. Great stay and would recommend!

Glencairn
The most amazing spot! Unbeatable views of mountains all around on a tranquil farm in Arrowtown. Truly a special place. So much better than paying a similar amount for something tiny in Queenstown. Our 2 kids (7 & 4) also loved having their own little ‘wing’ complete with giant soft toys, a TV, bathroom & wardrobe. Three small buildings are joined by a central semi-outdoor area, but you can mainly close this from the elements with two large doors. It made the stay feel like an adventure and we all loved it! The master ‘wing’ felt luxurious with beautiful views from the bed. Double-head shower was a nice touch. The kitchen/living space was stylish and really comfortable with everything you need. Looking out to a mountain range from the dining table was perfection. Weber BBQ outside was great. We loved the cats / dogs / cows - all so friendly. Close to Arrowtown and the 20 min drive to Queenstown was a breeze. Recommend the scenic drive to Wanaka too. Highly recommend this stay!

Sunny studio with hot tub and mountain views
Stephs airbnb is a short drive from queenstown and was exactly what we were looking for. The studio was pristine with beautiful surroundings. Really glad we picked this airbnb as our base whilst in Queenstown and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Newly renovated 2bdrm/2bthrm cottage in Arrowtown
What a georgeous, quiet, spacious property for my husband and I in the final days of our NZ holiday - a perfect way to finish our trip. Everything was spotlessly clean and the private courtyard was perfect for morning coffee (thanks to the Nespresso Coffee machine). The most comfortable bed of our trip - it was so lovely not to wake up with a sore lower back and hips each morning and the temperature was perfect for sleeping. We loved that the bathrooms had underfloor heating and sensor lighting under the vanities once it got dark outside. Communication with Sandy was easy and her instructions were easy to follow. Overall 10/10 and can highly recommend.

Cosy hideaway
Gail and Peter were fantastic hosts. Parking and accessing the property was easy and all the information we needed was provided to us. The place was clean, tidy and very welcoming. Would 100% recommend a stay here :)

Shotover Guesthouse
Apartment was very clean and spotless. Hosts even turned on the heater and played music before we checked into the apartment. We were impressed at how they look into the little details (they even have a stamp on the toilet paper ><) Will definitely come back again :)

Cosy on Cumberland
Our stay at Mei's place was great. Very comfortable and cosy and has everything you need, with a fully equipped kitchen. There were 5 of us, 3 adults and 2 kids, and felt quite comfortable. The accommodation was exactly as shown and nice and clean. The wifi was good which was really helpful for work purposes. We also really enjoyed the fire pit. Would definitely recommend it.

Wanaka WOW
The view from the balcony is great!

Cozy Gunn Road Bunkhouse Cottage with Logburner
We enjoyed staying here. The fireplace was amazing! We would 100% stay here again!

Amazing stay! I loved this place!

Rural Retreat minutes from Lake Hāwea
We absolutely loved our stay! We came to Wanaka to elope, and this Airbnb was the perfect place to stay during such a special moment. A huge thank you to the host for kindly allowing our makeup artist and photographers to come on short notice — we truly appreciated it. The surroundings are fantastic, especially for stargazing. We’d love to come back someday!

Honey Cottage in Ettrick, Scotland
Great wee spot to get away from the crazy city life. Peaceful and relaxing and some great wee walks around

Private flat in Wanaka
Beautiful, comfortable home. Easy access to everything we needed for our stay.

The Shed Guesthouse | One Bedroom & Kitchen
Wonderfull host! We had a great night at The Shed. Thanks for the warm welcome. Angie and Mark are great host. It’s a beautiful place to stay longer. If we could, we definitely would have stayed longer. Perfect place to stay in Wanaka! It’s all clean and looks like the picture. It’s also close to the town centre and the lake.
