“Beautiful location, stylish, comfortable and clean stay.”
Beautiful views and lovely area where the place was situated. 15 min walk into Arrowtown. 6-20 min drive to various wineries, restaurants etc depending how far you want to drive. Very comfortable and safe place for a solo female traveller. Would stay again.

The apartment was immaculately clean and very comfortable . Very easy walk into Arrowtown and great location for exploring the Wānaka area. We had to extend by a day due to weather conditions and Belinda was very accomodating . We loved this property and would highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed .
