Shared kitchen was spacious & well equipped with cooking utensils and cooking oils as well as Asian spices. The owner really cares for each detail in the kitchen and we are really surprised by his complete tidiness and cleanliness of the kitchen areas. The best shared kitchen in New Zealand I have used during our trip! Share bathroom also clean and tidy. The living room with wooden construction is quite really nice. The lodge is located in a peaceful and quite street filled with autumn vibes, really beautiful lodge in Wanaka. It is very close to the downtown and easy to walk. Highly recommended! We wish we could stay here much longer! Next time, I would definitely stay here when having a chance to come back to Wanaka. Thank you so much!
