Marvellous in Marsden
Awesome place to stay. Love the outlook onto water and to the hills (little bit of snow still visible). Room was an excellent size - plenty of space. Area was quiet. Close to Cromwell but far enough away to feel like a resort. Fully recommend to others.

Staff are friendly and the location of unit beautiful. The room was comfortable however, a few things need addressing. The curtains are ripped and the shower glass door at the bottom is dirty, the walls need a repaimt as marked, The deck should be water blasted from duck poo as this made it unusable. parking was good but there needs to be long two space parking for people with boats.

We stayed here for 3 night as it was in between places we wanted to visit. The accommodation was absolutely beautiful. It had a lovely view over the little marina to the snow capped mountains. We stayed in triple room appearance was almost brand new, electric blankets, heated tiles and towel rack in the bathroom made keeping warm easy. Highly recommend this to anyone anytime of year.

Everything was great, location was good with a stunning view from our balcony, Cromwell was close by for dining options or if you don’t mind a 30 min or so drive you can go to Wanaka. Only downside would be our room was on the very end so no wind block, very noisy at night. Otherwise loved our room.
