Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Central Otago District

Vicki and Dan are superb hosts. They are so proactive and helpful. They showed how much they cared about us having a great stay by their excellent communication. This home is decorated so well, and each detail is stunning. They have built much of the decor and it is so beautiful. They had the fire lit for us when we got there, which was such a great touch. The house was well stocked, and well maintained. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook. The bedrooms were very comfortable and very nice. The hot tub was enjoyable, and the neighborhood was peaceful. We truly appreciated our stay. Thanks for sharing your home with us and for sharing your beautiful corner of the world!

the host are very friendly and place is really great. would go back and highly suggest this place.

Great place for a bigger group. Fire was lovely and other heating was effective.

We had a wonderful stay at Jan’s place. We loved all of the details and the interesting art, books and furniture. It felt really homely and there were lots of helpful and thoughtful touches. The beds were all really comfortable with lovely fresh linen. Jan was an incredible host who really made sure that our stay was enjoyable. She was accommodating with a few last minute changes and always responded to messages promptly. We will definitely be booking a stay at Jans the next time we are in Otematata.

Julianne’s home was perfect for our stay. Situated in a superb location to enjoy all that is special about Wanaka. Fabulous views over Lake Wanaka and the mountains. Magical sunsets. Beautiful surrounds all walkable. Peaceful neighbourhood. A very spacious and comfortable home with everything we needed and more. Thank you Julianne for being a superhost. Very easy to communicate with and clear instructions before arrival much appreciated.

Had a lovely stay. Secluded and private with friendly hosts on site. Scenery was absolutely beautiful and the night sky was something else. Very homely feel, the board and card games were great entertainment in front of a nice warm fire. Monopoly deal was a standout, particularly for my partner who nearly won every game. Even managed to catch 5 rainbow trout from the river which I was absolutely stoked with. We only stayed for one night, wish we had longer there to explore and relax.

Tom’s place was spacious and comfortable, beautifully furnished and well equipped. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Thanks Tom for the stay.

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful Airbnb in Wānaka. The home was warm, comfortable, and perfectly presented, with thoughtful touches throughout that made it feel so inviting. The outlook was absolutely stunning — peaceful, private, and a true reflection of the natural beauty of the region. The spa was a standout feature — soaking under the stars in the crisp mountain air was something we won’t forget. Check-in was seamless, everything was clearly laid out, and we felt at ease from the moment we arrived. This place truly felt like a retreat, and we’d come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a serene and memorable stay in Wānaka.

Beautiful immaculate Loft barn apartment with views of the countryside out to the lake. Loved staying here as peaceful and so relaxing sitting with wood fireplace each evening. Lovely well appointed kitchen too. Favourite accommodation thus far in all NZ travels and wished it was a longer stay. Will definitely try to return and stay again. Highly recommend. Lucie is a great host who was friendly and responsive.

Love the ambience, incredible and convenient location with stunning views. The place was super cozy and had a very homey vibe. Toilet floors are heated which is something that we did not know we needed haha - mind blowing. This airbnb blew our expectations out of the water.

We had a great stay at the perch! Gabrielle was easy to communicate with and it’s the type of place you can tell a lot of love and care has gone into making the guest experience great. Highly recommend!

Love staying at these Apartments right on the beautiful Clutha River trails and right next door to our favourite cafe the Pembroke Patisserie, Albie Tavern & Takeaways right there, Four Square and laundry mat, so everything you need on your doorstep. Very close to Wanaka town and the beautiful Lake Hāwea.

Very clean house; looked just like the photos. Well stocked kitchen and super close market to walk to made cooking easy. Jill also included a notebook with clear instructions and stuff to do in the area.

We had a great stay at Victorias place over Easter Weekend while we were up from Southland for Wheels at Wanaka. The property was very clean, tidy & as described/displayed in the pictures. We were really pleasantly surprised at how quiet the property was! I was worried that with it being a ground floor unit that we might experience noise from the house on top, but we barely heard a peep! The property is also situated in a really quiet area, in a cul de sac near the base of Mt Iron, so there was also zero traffic noise - fantastic for us country folk who are used to the quiet life! Victoria was great on the communication front & very obliging with extra requests we made. Thanks for a great weekend!

Very clean. Enjoyed our stay!

Second time staying here, beautiful spot! Thanks Eve

Great location. Walking distance to town and lake. Quiet rear section. Villa was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. A home away from home.

The house exceeded our expectations. It was beautiful, thank you. We will be back!

We came here with friends and it was an amazing stay! The house was lovely, private and had beautiful views. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

Lovely peaceful house with good amenities and very comfortable.

Amazing house in a beautiful scenic spot right on the lake. Photos don’t do justice. Super cozy and all the conveniences you could want. Right on lake Hayes walking path. Very responsive. Wine and local tips on arrival were lovely extra touch Our kids loved it too

The villa was beautiful and close to hotel and restaurant. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub and the food in the restaurant was amazing! This is a real treasure with all this history. Beautiful set up garden too!

Lovely cottage, in a quiet and tranquil location. Will definitely return!

Lovely place and close enough to Wānaka or Queenstown as needs. Great, friendly hospitality from Aleishia to greet us and check we had all the info required.
