The space was well laid out, clean and modern. Staff were very accommodating with our last minute booking due to a flight cancellation, and even put the heater on for us. Beautiful spot right on the edge of Lake Wakatipu.

They provided us with the best experience ever. I requested some roses for our anniversary but unfortunately they don’t have that and replaced us with a room upgrade, a bottle of wine and some hand written letter which I really appreciated!
