What guests think

At Alpine Resort Wanaka THC Hotels and Resorts, guests consistently highlight spacious, family-friendly apartments with impressive mountain or lake views, a short drive to town, and helpful staff who make late arrivals easy, creating a comfortable base for Wanaka stays.

Facilities such as pools, spa, tennis, and games areas are appreciated, but recurring issues include patchy Wi-Fi, limited or worn kitchen gear, and maintenance gaps with appliances, heating, and some amenities not operating as expected. Cleanliness is often praised, though several reviews report dusty areas, dirty laundry rooms, or mold, and noise can travel between units or from nearby roads. Overall, it suits travelers seeking space and self-catering more than a full-service, in-town hotel vibe.

The property is in a great location and offers good facilities overall. However, we were disappointed with the cleanliness—our room had not been properly cleaned, especially the floor. We were also looking forward to using the spa, but the sauna wasn't warm enough, and the gym was outdated and lacked proper equipment. Thank you.

El Hotel está limpio pero las instalaciones están en mal estado! Dice que hay alberca y jacuzzi pero el agua está fría, el gimnasio está todo tirado, no hay agua! Sebastián nos atendió en el check in y con las bicicletas y nos dio buena atención! Su servicio fue excelente pero el hotel no está en las mejores condiciones! Las fotos no son lo que uno ve en realidad

度假村設施充足，例如Spa，暖水泳池，乒乓球，網球，健身設施，桌球等等。但健身設施的保養有需要改善。廚房抽油煙機及洗碗碟機也需加強保養及清潔。樓上三房單位設施不錯，景觀可望到遠方的雪山。其他一般都很滿意。

Typical resort. You will need to drive to get to any groceries, restaurants and attractions. Location is in the suburban area on the edge of the town. Apartment we stayed in was missing some cooking utensils like an egg flip sharp knife. Generally clean. Not all ammenities pools spas etc were functional. Our checkout was 10:00 am but had at 9:09 am the cleaner walked straight into the apartment with out announcing himself. Not a great end to our stay. Everything else was good.

While the room was perfect . The pool and spa were infested with bees. When we went back to reception we were told ‘ they are bees are we have reported them ‘ , this was after we asked about the pool ( where it was in location to our room ). We were told to use the other pool - which also had loads of ‘ bees’. When speaking with other guests - they told us they were wasps. So no spa available . I’d argue that it was unsafe for anyone - and should have been informed of that during checkin. Also no parking in front of our room. Meh - stay was ok but could have been better

We were in a bottom unit and it was noisy. The first night we had to listen to kids noisily running on the floor above us. Same thing in the morning. We could even hear the toilet flushing. The second night we had to hear a couple having sex. The unit didn’t look anything like the on-line pictures. It was dirty and beat up. The shower stall had a moldy drain, mold at the base and mold on the tile grout. The carpet was worn in places and the unit was dark. Inadequate lighting: the only lighting was bright ceiling lights. Not recommended.

The place needs updating and very odd, they give us a garage door opener to enter and when I open the garage door the entrance door to the room was wide open and we are not sure whether someone was in the room or not. They have a small space heater in each bedroom and no heat in the living room or kitchen, so cold living room! The kitchen gas stove did not work and the whole carpeting is old and rundown. Do not recommend this place.

Our 3 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment was very spacious with the choice of a king bed or twin singles in each bedroom. A garage with automatic door was included but it was a snug fit for our small SUV. There are lovely views of the mountains from the living areas and spacious balcony but nearby construction works detracted from the overall environment. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathrooms were clean but one of the beds was uncomfortable and quite low. There are quite a few stairs at the entry to the apartment but once you are upstairs, everything is on the one level.

We had a great stay at the alpine resort. Staff were super helpful, place was clean (they don’t have daily service) so up to us to keep it tip top. Can’t complain. Supermarket and the main part of town was only a short drive away. Great for families. Only downside is if you are in a ground apartment, upstairs can be a bit noisy especially if they are having an earlier start than you. Highly recommend and even moreso if you don’t mind not being right in the centre of town.

What an incredible place to stay! My husband and I booked here very last minute (10 minutes before showing up) and were greeted warmly at reception. They even gave us a free upgrade! It was a beautiful, very nicely updated 3 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment with a full balcony overlooking the town, the lake, and the mountains. It had so many nice features, like heated floors in the bathrooms, in-unit washer and dryer, a fireplace, and the whole back wall in the living room and dining area opened up to the balcony. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and the beds were comfortable. The amenities on the property, like the pool and the hot tub, were lovely. This was an incredible place to stay and we can't wait to return!
