Things were missing
Just finished staying at Alpine View. Location was great as it is out of town by 5 min. Quite and a nice place to unwind after a long day. Was looking forward to the hot tub but found out there is none. Pictures used in write up are from the previous owner. Breakfast was nothing to write home about.

Craig and Michelle are so lovely and kind and we felt very welcomed into the beautiful cottage. We enjoyed the delicious homemade banana choc muffins that greeted us on arrival 😊 The views of snow-capped mountains greeted us each day and we really loved our stay there. Can’t wait to return as soon as possible!

Loved it.
We stayed two nights here and wished we had booked for longer. The hosts are a very friendly couple who have gone to great lengths to make their guests feel at home. Our lodge was lovely, spacious, clean, comfortable with access to a beautiful garden. A wonderful breakfast is included sat in Michelle’s kitchen having a chat. The area around Lake Wanaka is a wonderful place to visit.

I highly recommend this wonderful accommodation. Friendly and relaxed hosts. Excellent accommodation with every need catered to. Well presented with extra touches and comfort. I didn’t have a chance to experience the breakfasts but I’m quite sure they would have been marvellous. Take a pair of togs for the spa pool ! Enjoy the beautiful gardens. I will most definitely be staying there again !

Excellent hotel and a short drive from Lake Wanaka
This was a splendid place to stay. Our Host Michele was awesome, as was Loraine who made us breakfast. The room was spacious and very clean. They even had a covered area for us to park our car. The gardens of the house were also lovely and one of our best evenings there was spent at the table outside our room enjoying dinner and some wine. When we get back to this area, we will definitely be staying here again.

Home away from home.
Our hosts - Craig & Michele - were welcoming, helpful and organized. The accommodation was clean and comfortable and sensibly appointed. The two bedroom cottage was a perfect size for our family of 3 for our annual Cardrona snow holiday. It is quiet and well-located with comfortable bedding and a well-resourced kitchen for home catering. They also have a good DVD selection for those fresh nights in. The chickens, sheep, and horses at the back of the property provided some extra entertainment.

Lovely B&B with welcoming hosts.
On arrival there was on one in the office. It was about 1.30pm and we realized that we were early. We returned about 2pm and Michelle drove in a few minutes later. Michelle was lovely and she just mentioned that check in was 3pm. I told her that no check in time was mentioned on my paperwork. It was not a problem for Michelle and she even gave us an upgrade to a lovely suite. The suite consisted of a huge bedroom with full length glass doors and views to the mountains. The doors also opened onto a beautiful garden area. The room had a table and two chairs, a two seat lounge, TV, DVD player, fridge and tea and coffee making facilities. There was a very large bathroom. This suite had undercover parking right at the door. Michelle recommended and made a booking for dinner for us at a very good Italian Restaurant in town. We met Craig at breakfast the next morning. They were both preparing breakfast when there was a power blackout. Craig just started up his backup generator and power was restored. The breakfast was fantastic with choices of cereals, fresh fruit, yogurt etc. Michelle cooked a hot breakfast of your choice. Toast, fresh tea and coffee were brought to the table. We highly recommend the Alpine View Lodge.

The ONLY place to stay in Wanaka
Craig and Michelle were wonderful hosts and made us very welcome. Gave great recommendations for local food spots and walks. A wonderful room with comfy beds, after a great hot breakfast we even got to feed the sheep!! Our 9yo loved it. I loved the beautiful gardens. Can't wait to go back and see it in another season.

Such a great experience! The hosts were so sweet and kind, gave us some great hiking tips and because of their information we ended up doing one of the highlights of our trip! The property is great, really beautiful with awesome views of the mountainside and very private rooms.

Rural, yet handy to everything, and great hosts
As a base for exploring the region, we couldn't have done better. The location is perfect and the scenery is wonderful. Hosts, Michele and Craig, make guests feel very welcome, do a great breakfast and are a mine of local insight. The room was cosy, despite a cold snap, and very nicely furnished. Even the shower (my usual gripe in hotels and B&Bs) had great pressure and warmth.

The place is a little tucked away up the hill (Less than a minute drive from town), but its not far enough to be inconvenient. The cooked breakfast from our host was fantastic and welcoming and the room was warm and well equipped. Absolutely no complaints here.

great place to stay
The hosts were friendly helpful it was a pleasure to meet and spend time with them. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful. Please don't mix the name when looking it is alpine lodge View other places have similar names. The room had a king size bed and very comfy. Tea coffee facilities with home made biscuits . Ample space to move around TV and free wi .fi connection. Own outside courtyard with table and chairs. Very very happy with our stay. Position is close to town but not a problem with car younger persons could pedal, quiet and peaceful garden areas.

Michelle and Craig are very welcoming and instantly make you feel at home. Wonderful breakfast with the addition of a chat with the owners. The rooms are very clean and comfortable and generously proportioned. It feels secluded but Wanaka is only a 3 minute drive away. Beautiful views of the gardens and muntains in the distance.

Wonderful stay at Alpine View
Craig and Michelle are marvelous hosts for this B&B. We obtained friendly and quite useful advice regarding things to do, places to eat, and directions for travel. We also appreciated Craig’s advice to use the spa after our hike up to the Rob Roy Glacier in West Matukituki Valley one day. The room was very clean, comfortable and in tip-top shape, with pleasant garden patio seating out the sliding glass door. I would happily book to stay with them any time.

Had a really lovely stay here. Michele and Craig were excellent hosts and we felt right at home. The room was spacious and comfortable with our own private deck and view over the fields and hills. This was great for having a bbq in the evening sun. Breakfast provided was delicious and set us up well for the day! We also enjoyed meeting the sheep and lambs :) We would definitely stay again and recommend this to anyone!

A fantastic vacation home away from home.
It was way beyond our expectation. Our host Michele and Craig made us feel really at home. The morning breakfast was great. The accomodation was well maintained and kept. The location just out of town, was just exactly what we wanted because of the breathtaking view of the snowcapped mountain and the surrounding farms.
