Amazing view!

The house was terrific! there were 5 of us and it was an amazing amount of space - bathrooms for everyone! YOU CAN NOT BEAT THE VIEW! It was spectacular. The kitchen was pretty well stocked and we were able to cook a couple of nights and eat on the upstairs deck -- so lovely.

The staff at the reception desk were less than friendly and made us feel like we were a nuisance to them. It was so hot when we first got there.... the blinds should be pulled to control the heat. The trash and recycling were both full at the curb when we checked in and didn't get picked up during our stay, so it was a bit difficult navigating that. Seems like the property needs to manage the trash if the city service doesn't happen timely. The showers needed to be cleared of hair, as they pooled at the bottom of the shower. Again, the staff at reception seemed unconcerned when we let them know at the end of our stay.

4 single beds, only 1 with a working electric blanket, hand basins with no plugs,toilet with missing flush buttons, House needs a good Reno, still ok but getting very tired

Very good

Was great for a large group. Nice, clean, good sized property close to main centre and lovely view.

Loved the location and the house was the perfect size for our group

Only small negative was a blocked/slow drain in the master bathroom shower which caused a bit of flooding and mopping. The kitchen cupboard where the rubbish bin was kept didn't shut well and would have been good to have an axe or some kindling for fire. All minor but feedback may help improve

Pleasant

Overall we did enjoy our stay at the Krook. Great views & close to town.

Great location, close to town. Plenty of room for 8 people.

Cleaning could have been better. Cob webs hanging from walls & ceiling inside. Upstairs bathroom had mould around seal. Maybe requires some other form of heating downstairs other than fire.

Outstanding location, huge well setup house

Excellent house in an exceptional location. Walkable to the lake (300m), with lake views,walkable to the main shops/restaurants. An abundance of bathrooms is always so handy (4 bathrooms!). All bedrooms are well sized. Well setup for 10 people/2 families. Huge dining table plus outdoor dining, two lounge rooms, full laundry facilities.

Only downside was that in the peak of summer the house can become a bit of an oven. All bedrooms have openable windows however the air flow isn't great and it was hot trying to go to sleep at night. There is one air-conditioner in the upstairs lounge but that's the only form of cooling, if you're localish and coming in summer I'd recommend taking some pedestal fans if you can fit them in! We went to buy some but wanaka was completely sold out which happens every year and I wish I'd thought to bring a fan as we have a baby. Other than that no complaints the house was perfect for us.
