"The room we chose was a studio with Lake Views. Loved the Lake Views, however the room is very much the original motel style and needs an upgrade. I have stayed here before in the newer 2 bedroom apartment style behind the original motel and was very impressed. The motel room was ok for a no-fuss overnight stay, but I would choose the modern apartment for longer stays."

Beautiful, cosy but large resort. Had a great stay as the staff are super friendly and the facilities are great. The only thing that annoyed me was that they add a 7 NZD charge to each room service delivery! Besides that, a great stay and I would definitely go there again!

The motel was in great condition everything was clean and clearly well maintained. The rooms was equipped with a fridge, a microwave and plates/cutlery. The staff was really friendly and helpful.

What a superb place this is.
From customer friendly staff throughout to the smallest details.
Everything is carefully thought about, delivered to the highways standards, mindful of the environmental impact each service may have. Sustainable, tasty food, recycled products, nothing wasted without compromise on quality of product or service.
We highly recommend Gibbston Valley.
10/10 all round.

We had a wonderful stay at The Moorings. In fact so lovely that we booked in again on our way back from Queenstown. Darren was very welcoming, he gave us some good tips for our travel routes and we had some great chats - a lovely guy. The property itself was very comfortable, well maintained, quiet, clean and had a lovely view of the lake. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils. Highly recommend!

We had a modern room with kitchen and all the facilities needed for a short stay while exploring the Wanaka area. We were in walking distance of the centre and only a few minutes drive from the start of the Roys Peak path, an experience we will find it hard to better.

Room (apartment!) was clean, staff member at reception was lovely and even accomodated our last minute request to have a room with a view for our honeymoon.

Stayed one night in February 2017 and found the motel very comfortable with friendly, helpful staff. 15 minutes walk to the centre and restaurants so fairly convenient location.
