Holiday Homes in Makarora

"Great little getaway cottage that allows for peace and quiet but not being far away for Wanaka. The fact that the lake is literally within arms throw is amazing and that is not even to mention the views when the sun starts to rise and peak over the mountains"

"Great accommodation and perfect location for a break."

"Spent 2 nights in this lovely house w/6 adults. Gusty winds at first but views still can’t be beat. Very well stocked w/cookware, glasses,plates etc plenty for group. Construction of roads a bit confusing & house a little dated (beds) but very comfortable & great open layout for group gathering."

"We loved this location, a few minutes' walk to the wonderful Makarora river braidplain. The house is unique: rustic and a little run down. Comfortable enough if you aren't expecting luxury. Some things could use a little updating (i.e. floors and bath fittings) but all this is secondary to the stunning landscape. We enjoyed our 10 days exploring the area--be sure to check out The Craypot fish and chippie at the end of the road over Haast Pass and the Wilkin Jet Boat tours."

"good place"

"Wonderful home - excellent facilities - we thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

"Great stay for a couple of days for the Wings over Wanaka. The spot had everything we needed whilst there. Just a suggestion, when people travel with the luggage restrictions, it might be a good idea to supply a hairdryer and complimentary shampoo and shower gel. Other than that, the place is great."

"For garden lovers perfect"

"Wonderful place, spacious and modern. The area is superb and we are extremely glad to have chosen Hawea, and this property in particular to base our holiday."

"Great space for rainy days off the mountain. Excellent heating. Lounge space divided up to spread out an extended family. Very comfy beds. Clean, tidy and everything we needed in the kitchen. Thanks for the stay."

"Had a great stay at this property. The house and location were fantastic. Plenty of room for a large group. The only downside was the property manager, who didn't turn up to meet us at property. After nearly an hour of calling her and trying to communicate with the main office from the driveway she finally answered her phone."

"Perfect wee get away from the business of Wanaka while only being 10-15min from town. Great Location for Snowboarding/Skiing and walking some of New Zealand's great nature walks"

"Great house, big kitchen and very warm! Nice to be in Hawea rather than Wanaka, quiet and beautiful. Gorgeous views too. Would stay again for sure 😊"

"Location was perfect, hiked from the cottage to a bit above the bush line towards Mt Shrimpton for lunch and a great view of the valley"
