Goodall Crib - Wanaka Holiday Home

Great quiet location and a bonus to hear birds singing in the morning.

It's a very tired property. Nothing has been spent on updating or replacing furniture.

Location and views .

A little old but still ok

Close to Cardrona

There was no paper to light the fire and nothing to light the fire with. We have gifted a lighter as we couldn’t fly with it. There were not enough working lights. When you turned off a heater the switch arced - which it shouldn’t do. Maybe something wrong with the wiring with all the blown lights???

Unfortunately, the place has not been maintained. Steps and balcony timbers are held together only just. We paid to rent a two bedroom and two bathroom property. This place definitely has only one bathroom,

The unit was spacious, for three adults, and well equipped for our needs - though it lacked wifi and dishwasher. A sunny outlook across rooftops and through trees to the lake nearby added to our enjoyment. Comfortable beds, strong water pressure and good chairs and standard lamps for reading were also pluses. We appreciated the flexibility of our booking when our adult daughter decided late in the piece to join us for a short stay.

The 70s decor and fittings presented a trip down memory lane, which we rather liked, but routine maintenance had lagged, in some cases significantly, eg the entrance steps. These pockets of shabbiness did not detract from our enjoyment as much as the very dirty windows and ranch slider door glass and the fact several light bulbs needed replacing. All of these shortcomings could be remedied quickly and inexpensively.
