It was a memorable stay. The check-in process was a bit confusing at first since there was no staff available, but the facilities more than made up for it and completely won me over. The electric fireplace was lovely, the bathrooms were great, and the apartment was spacious. I wished I could have stayed longer, and I would definitely love to come back.

Ideal location for exploring Wanaka’s town centre. The views from the apartment were amazing. The apartment seemed like it was still brand new and was very clean and tidy. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked with all the amenities you need for a short or long stay. The couches and bed were very comfortable.

Spacious, luxury apartment with beautiful views. Easy walk to shops, restaurants, and trails around lake. Enjoyed the pool, hot tub and gym. The apartment itself is new and stunning and included a sauna.

The room was clean and comfortable, in a great location with excellent views. The name “Marine Terrace Apartments” was a little misleading for the studio room we booked, as it was more like a compact hotel room rather than a self-contained apartment. We had expected facilities such as a kitchenette, small lounge, and dining area, which were not included.
That said, the stay was still enjoyable overall, and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Amazing spacious apartment with a huge balcony and stunning lake view. Cooking utensils are complete with everything I need. They even got the coffee capsule machine and everything is so perfect. Swimming pool and massage are available with stunning lake view as well. My family and I had an excellent stay there. High recommend for a whole family.
I would recommend this property with its location and beautiful views of the lake. The property is within walking distance to downtown restaurants. The rooms are modern with a beautiful bathroom and comfortable bed. Nespresso machine and refrigerator were available. There was no microwave. There is a combo washer/dryer but ours did not dry well. The staff was able to dry our clothes elsewhere for us. There is a nice weight room, hot tub and indoor pool within a separate building. Overall, we were very happy with our stay.

The room we had was beautifully appointed with a terrific view of the lake. The only criticism I have is the lack of an option for daily servicing of the apartment.

Fantastic lake and Roy's peak views. We could see the lights of the climbers before sunrise. Stunning new property with high end everything. We booked a two room for the extra outside space and sat outside by the heaters enjoying the evening. Super quiet even though right on the road. Easy walk along a beach front walkway to downtown.

Nice modern building, gym and spa, walkable distance to town. Very small room and only a drizzle out of the shower. WLA better and usually cheaper option imho.

spent 2 nights in this wonderful apartment, had great time in Wanaka. They offer portable camping chairs so that u can drive around and find any place to chill out.
One thing to improve is the confusing check in email via Expedia about the assigned apt number, but the apartment team reached out to me on mobile directly on the day of arrival.

Beautifully appointed, perfectly located!
We love our stay in the Marina Terraces. First off our three bedroom apartment was well sized! Plenty of space for our group of 5! It was a short walk to downtown with a beautiful view of the marina. The kitchen appliances were high quality as were the furniture and beds. There was a laundry machine in the unit, a garage, mulitple coffee makers, a bbq, a wine refrigerator, a huge refrigerator, a lovely outdoor terrace with heaters, a fire place, comfy beds, a pool, hot tub and gym. I have no hesitation in recommending this apartment.
