Low rating as we didn’t stay here, changed our minds. Drove in and straight out and took a hit on the cost. Looked run down and further out from town/lake than we wanted. We went to the wonderful Belvedere apartments instead which was well worth it.

Nice stay at this motel in Wanaka. We stayed in the two bedroom - the beds were comfortable, the kitchen had basic utensils (as well as Teas and Coffee), but no cooking oil. The laundry was really convenient and nice - cost $5 for one load (both wash and dry). Staff were really friendly and helpful! I would stay here again and would recommend it!

This reservation was cancelled on 13/02/24, which is when we requested a booking. Manuka said they had cancelled this. I see a charge has been raised and demand it be reversed.
