This resort is somehow deceptive from the first impressions. It is a very large resort with a lot going on and yet it manages to be very tranquil. The views are gorgeous, the room spotlessly clean and lovely linen! Another place with a stuffy room and no air con but an open window solved the issue and no noise from... More

I only have 2 regrets from my trip to Queenstown and Wanaka - My first regret is that I could not skydive due to weather conditions and my second regret is not having spent more time at Edgewater and Lake Wanaka. It is one of the best resorts I have been to and I had a truly memorable time from... More

Readonably modern, clean and good service (staff are a good blend of tourists / locals). Depending on the room, the view is lake / mountain and is incredible. Winter is awesome and laying on the grass in summer by the lake is equally stunning, good running track along lake from resort too. Close to Wanaka as well. Well worth a... More

This is a nice hotel with a good location and very nice suites, I can sympathise with 'bearsfolks' review tho', I was probably at the party this reviewer talks about, and have to say I would have been a bit fed up if I hadn't been at the party. Food was ok, Bar Staff very nice although did find the... More

Dear Stephen, Thanks for taking the time to let us know about your visit to Edgewater. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We do have quite large numbers on our accommodation wings which we chose to make it easier for guests to find their way around. The 15 minute stroll along the lakefront and through the poplars...

The Edgewater is a beautiful hotel with spacious rooms and a great view of the lake which is within a minute’s walk for a relaxing stroll. Or you can just chill out in your room or just outside and enjoy the tranquility. That is, you could do so, unless you happen to be there on a day when there is... More

Edgewater is very sorry for the situation during your stay, preventing you from enjoying a restful night at our usually tranquil location. The music came from the nearby vineyard as they hosted their biennial music festival. Unfortunately a change in the direction of the wind during the evening accentuated the direction of the music, affecting Edgewater more than we would... More

We received a really warm welcome from Naoko and she told us all about the plentiful resort facliities at the Hotel - we were travelling with our 5 year so the trampoline, playground and big outdoor spaces were put to good use....

Booked at the last minute for 2 adults and 3 kids, the 2 roomed apartment was spacious, clean and well serviced. It doesn’t have a pool, kids were a bit down on this, but tennis, kayaks and location made up for it. Friendly staff, only small gripe the BBQ;s are a bit small !
