Welcome to The Rest Nest. We are located in central Wanaka just a few minutes walk from the town centre. I purchased this property a couple of years ago. Interestingly it was originally built as a Bed and Breakfast. After extensive renovations downstairs including a new laundry and 2 new bathrooms. We are ready to welcome guests! I live upstairs with my dog Bertie and Louie the cat - who may decide to visit you!
Welcome, I have many years experience hosting guests from all over the world. I have run Hotels, and used to own a Motel in Te Anau as well as a holiday house business. I look forward to welcoming you into the downstairs part of my home.
We are located just a 2 minute walk from the town centre, including New World Supermarket, the lake and many bars and restaurants. My favourite 'Pembroke Wines' is located just 2 short blocks away. No need to drive to town.
