This is an amazing property. We had a front facing apartment that was clean, comfy and well stocked. The guy on the front desk was really friendly and gave us the room slightly ahead of check in time. We were over the moon with our selection, we had booked this last minute, after an itinerary change meant the original hotel we had booked couldn't accommodate us. Once we arrived in Wanaka we realised the original hotel was at the top of the hill away from the town centre but the Bella Vista Motel Wanaka was superbly located just a short stroll from the lake. We were not aware of any outside noise during our stay and I would highly recommend this property for your stay.

Great location in the center of Wanaka. We did not need to drive at all after we arrived to explore the town. Everything we needed or wanted was within walking distance. We were placed in a unit on the second floor. The doors into the room are glass sliding doors, but as a result, we had a beautiful view of the lake & surrounding mountains throughout the day (esp during sunset). We appreciated that there was a laundry facility on site. They only accept coins, but was priced reasonably in comparison to other places we saw on our trip and you can exchange cash for coins at reception. Detergent was also provided. They also made late check in super easy.

Our unit was at the edge of the second floor. We believe that their might have been a bar nearby as we could hear some sounds & loud voices in the evening. But the noise did not run too late into the night.

The motel was situated in middle of town, absolutely perfect! The room I booked was a studio and was perfect for me. It had everything a person could need , was exceptionally clean and very well appointed. I loved the dark tinted glass on the outside door and windows, giving total privacy from the outside. The bed was so comfortable! I just melted into it. I loved how the stairs and balcony walkways were carpeted with an outdoor carpet, great idea, preventing anyone from accidentally slipping in wet or damp conditions. The hosts were very and friendly and welcoming . I will recommend this motel to anyone traveling to Wanaka, it cant be faulted.

There was nothing I didnt like, it was perfect in al aspects

Excellent Location handy to walk anywhere in Town, Clean Tidy Unit. Staff were friendly and Helpful.

This accommodation met our requirements for our 2 Night stay very well. No Car Park for us we had to park out on the street. Having said that we did arrive outside of normal Check-in Hours.

A great location right in town, very handy to shops and lake front, just a short walk away, many Restaurants very close by, to cater to all. Room had a view of the mountain range, very nice sight in the morning, room compact but comfortable, great shower and bathroom area.

Short 5mins walk to town shops, restaurants, ice-cream outlet, New World supermarket and the beautiful Lake Wanaka. Cold during our stay on 29 Nov with strong sun shining into the unit. Close the curtain to solve that but you missed the beautiful mountain views right infront.

The 2nd level units require some work bringing heavy luggage up the stairs.

Within a few minutes’ walk to the lake and business center. About 10 minutes’ walk to the “Wanaka Tree”, and about 10 minutes’ drive to the Puzzling World. A restaurant (2 minutes’ walk, forgot name) offers 10% discount for Bella Vista guests. Room is clean and tidy.

The toilet seems a little old, but OK

Central location (middle of Wanaka but still very quiet ), had everything we needed for a one night stay or longer, spacious and sunny

Quite loud plumbing noise when the neighbours turned on the shower. Otherwise it was very quiet in our corner room.

the bathtub and the bath salts that were provided, i definitely took advantage of this as the night was cold in wanaka

better wifi connection and sky tv would have topped this off for the hubby to watch his rugby also the other drunk tenants above the reception veranda making an awful lot of noise up until 3am! but that's something the owners couldn't control or could they?
