It has four sumptuous bedrooms to accommodate up to eight guests. The two super-king and two queen bedrooms are spacious and the simple elegant furnishings provide a comfortable and relaxing ambience. All bedrooms have their own modern en-suite bathroom facilities with shower, under floor heating, heated towel rails, demist mirror and hair drier.

The two master suites feature recycled hardwood timbers and tongue and groove vaulted ceilings, giving them an atmosphere of warmth and intimacy.

The master suite located in the bedroom wing of the main lodge has a capacious bathroom and dressing area with a deep freestanding bath and direct access to the pool courtyard.

The second master suite located in a separate character stone building has a sitting room with its own fireplace. The bathroom also features a deep freestanding bath.

Touches of luxury can be found in 100% cotton designer bed linen, down and feather pillows and duvets, fluffy bath sheets, bath robes, unique quality New Zealand toiletries, flat screen TV and telephones in all guest suites.

With a gourmet kitchen bathed in granite to Italian bathrooms and private pool, this villa is a destination in its own right.

The Great Room is the heart of the villa. With six metre beamed and vaulted ceilings, a huge and imposing fireplace, polished jarrah floors and deer horn chandeliers, the windows frame panoramic mountain views. Leather couches invite guests to sit and relax after the day's activities.

The villa displays character and a sense of permanence with natural materials characteristic of the region. Furnished with handcrafted furniture and fine textiles, New Zealand art and sculpture is a special feature, and all appliances and electronics are state-of-the-art.

For guests who choose to use their culinary skills to self-cater, the kitchen is a delight and there are three refrigerators, three ovens and three dishwashers. Upon arrival guests will receive complimentary regional beer, wine, non-alcoholic beverages and a cheese and nibbles selection.

Separating the main lodge from the bedroom wing is the pool courtyard, a second alternative for outdoor dining where you can enjoy barbecues by the outdoor fireplace whilst overlooking the heated swimming pool and waterfall features.

This luxury accommodation is set on nearly two acres of landscaped grounds that sweep down to the lake's edge (you can literally fly fish from the edge of this property) in the pristine alpine setting of Lake Wanaka, New Zealand and is designed for the exclusive use of discerning and sophisticated modern travellers who are accustomed to beautiful surroundings and excellent service.

Whether sampling the fine regional food and wine, snuggling up by the fire or gazing at the stars in clear mountain skies, a personal concierge will cater to your every whim, including provisioning the cupboards with particular foods, providing a personal chef for intimate dining, organising spa treatments, or supplying a personal guide.

Wanaka is located in the South Island of New Zealand, right in the heart of the spectacular Southern Lakes region. North of Queenstown, it is approximately 65 kilometers or 45 minutes drive via the Crown Range Highway from Queenstown International Airport. Wanaka also has a regional airport on the outskirts of town.

Hemmed in by the Southern Alps, Wanaka is Otago's second resort after Queenstown. The crystal-clear waters of New Zealand's fourth-largest lake reflect the snow-capped peaks of the Mt Aspiring National Park World Heritage Area, whose dominant feature is Mt Aspiring, towering above a magnificent glacier-sculpted wilderness.
