It's a lovely place, the owners have worked hard to make it elegant, well-equiped, extremely well looked-after and friendly. The Homestead Lodge is a very pleasant walk along the lakeside into the town centre, with spectacular views the mountains. The owner couldn't have been more helpful, he even gave us a lift 12k to the start of a beautiful walk back into town. Make a point of talking to him, he will tell you the best places eat, where to get cheap petrol, where to find the best pastries and how to make the most of your stay. If you are interested in doing the Wanaka Park run, it's only about 100m to the start. It's a great place. ##### Jon Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashley 18 Mar 2026 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Flawless.

Kaalene and Allan were so kind and thoughtful. We felt genuinely cared for, and could have easily stayed for weeks. Breakfast is delicious, with nice variety. The property is lovely with a rustic vibe, yet completely modern, spacious, and comfortable. Our room felt both posh and homey; the kind of place you could happily laze in all day if it weren’t so nice to be outside. The location is ideal: close to town but not right in the hustle and bustle. From there, we enjoyed walks to the lake and into town. In fact, we so loved being there that we got take-away and enjoyed meals out on the patio or lawn tables. We never quite made it to the jacuzzi under the stars. Next time! We left rested and happy, feeling like we’d made life-long friends. We can’t wait to go back. ##### Carlo Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Copthorne Hotel Greymouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greymouth-Hotels-Kingsgate-Hotel-Greymouth.h12933.Hotel-Information) > - [DoubleTree by Hilton Queenstown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Queenstown.h4412246.Hotel-Information) > - [Distinction Heritage Gateway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Omarama-Hotels-Heritage-Gateway-Hotel.h519242.Hotel-Information) > - [Falcons Nest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cromwell-Hotels-Falcons-Nest.h31053004.Hotel-Information) > - [Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Hilton-Queenstown-Resort-Spa.h4268206.Hotel-Information) > - [Cardrona Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Cardrona-Hotel.h9629768.Hotel-Information) > - [Beachfront Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitianga-Hotels-Beachfront-Resort.h6960059.Hotel-Information) > - [Millbrook Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Millbrook-Resort.h584862.Hotel-Information) > - [Hahei Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hahei-Hotels-Hahei-Holiday-Resort.h9869496.Hotel-Information) > - [Kinloch Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Kinloch-Wilderness-Retreat.h3848386.Hotel-Information) > - [Rosewood Matakauri](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Matakauri-Lodge.h1097561.Hotel-Information) > - [The Sands Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Omapere-Hotels-The-Heads-Hokianga.h1217506.Hotel-Information) > - [The Amberley Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amberley-Hotels-The-Amberley-Hotel.h83782595.Hotel-Information) > - [Richmond Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Richmond-Hotels-Richmond-Holiday-Park.h29218591.Hotel-Information) > - [Parkview Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/National-Park-Village-Hotels-Parkview-Apartments.h32421560.Hotel-Information) > - [Kelly Rd Cambridge Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Kelly-Rd-Cambridge-Lodge.h17679551.Hotel-Information) > - [Porters Boutique Hotel & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Havelock-North-Hotels-Porters-Boutique-Hotel.h15965962.Hotel-Information) > - [Blue Ridge Studios and Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Te-Anau-Hotels-Blue-Ridge-Boutique-Bed-Breakfast.h9625233.Hotel-Information) > - [Waitomo Caves Guest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Waitomo-Caves-Hotels-Waitomo-Caves-Guest-Lodge.h16121337.Hotel-Information) > - [Scenic Hotel Punakaiki](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greymouth-Hotels-Punakaiki-Resort.h982476.Hotel-Information) > - [Treetops Lodge & Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Treetops-Lodge-Estate.h912953.Hotel-Information) > - [Bayside Holiday Units](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitianga-Hotels-Bayside-Holiday-Units.h49101011.Hotel-Information) > - [Te Anau Lakeview Holiday Park & Motels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Te-Anau-Hotels-Te-Anau-Lakeview-Kiwi-Holiday-Park-Motels.h4192650.Hotel-Information) > - [Ramada Resort By Wyndham Rotorua Marama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Ramada-Resort-By-Wyndham-Rotorua-Marama.h3512184.Hotel-Information) > - [Anglers paradise and great family holiday place](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makarora-Hotels-Anglers-Paradise-And-Great-Family-Holiday-Place.h37278832.Hotel-Information) > - [Hidden Lake Hotel and Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Hidden-Lake-Hotel-And-Apartments.h29081973.Hotel-Information) > - [The Barn Cabins & Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marahau-Hotels-The-Barn-Cabins-Camping.h15886153.Hotel-Information) > - [The Duke of Marlborough Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Russell-Hotels-The-Duke-Of-Marlborough-Hotel.h1038082.Hotel-Information) ---
