Very good

Nice hotel with great pools and hit pools. Rooms are tidy, but can be loud if you someone is in the upstairs unit. A car is needed because it is quite far from central Wanaka
We stayed in a 3 room apartment, the heaters didnt work in 2 of the rooms, try to ask not to have 1/2/3 as its next door to the driveway which is quite loud with all the traffic coming in and out. Kids loved the spa
Everything was amazing, only thing that would have made our experience there better would have been if our room got serviced whilst we were out and about.
Second stay as had stayed a couple of days prior. Great location and friendly staff.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We were a bit disappointed we aren’t advised that the swimming facilities were getting serviced prior to us arriving at the resort. We had booked at Oakridge especially for the pools and spas, and they only had the lap pool available which was freezing cold.
The property was very good, facilities were great.i recommend staying there. But book directly with them. I booked through wotif and needed to change booking and cancell one room... wotif had a zero$ refund and u have to "speak " to a computer assistant, which did not work easily..even filling in this review on the wotif site dodoes not open the window big enough to see what u are typing. ,dont use wotif
Good place to stay. Room was a bit noisy- I could hear everything going on in the room next to me. Nice pools and hot tubs with a friendly and helpful staff.
