“Would definitely stay again.”
Great Apartment in a great location. Lovely views to sit on the balcony for an aperitivo. A short walk in to Town and restaurants. It was well supplied with all requirements with a useful small kitchen if you wanted to self cater.

“Rooms with views - Great hosts”
We loved our short stay at Criffel Garden. Easy 10 min walk to Wanaka. Wide stretching views, comfortable beds, great shower. Good communication from Caroline and Suzie and they organised a helicopter trip for us when our original trip was cancelled due to bad weather. They gave us lots of good advice about the area and things to do. True to description/photos.

The apartment has a marvelous view of the mountains, a perfect place to sit on the deck with our morning coffee. It was conveniently close to town, but quiet and comfortable.
