“The property's lakeside location and proximity to Wanaka's dining and shopping are definite assets, appealing to those prioritizing convenience and views. Apartments include fully equipped kitchens which are great for families or extended stays, while on-site EV charging caters to modern travel needs. The occasional report of dated facilities should be weighed against the overall value, but friendly hosts can help balance that.”
