Beacon

Overview

Being close to town & close to the lake are two massive draw cards when guests are looking for Wanaka accommodation, and Beacon certainly ticks these particular boxes. This stunning architecturally-designed property sits on an elevated spot enjoying lovely views of the lake and mountains. Clad in cedar, the vacation rental home, designed by Assembly Architects Ltd, boasts a beautiful, modern interior and is the winner of several architectural awards. A series of large windows and sliding doors facing west allow the afternoon light to flood into the open plan living area. Combine this with polished concrete floors and crisp white walls complemented by colourful artwork and accessories, and you have a bright oasis for guests to enjoy. The kitchen has everything you need to cook up a feast for the family, which you can enjoy at the large dining table. At the far end of the living area, in the recessed lounge area, vibrant yellow couches provide a pop of colour and also a comfortable spot to relax with a wine or beer after a day out exploring Wanaka. Outside at the rear of the property is a sheltered deck area complete with barbecue and outdoor seating to enjoy some alfresco dining if the weather is warm.

Upstairs, three good-sized bedrooms sleep 6 guests, each with a nice view of the lake & mountains to wake up to. The master bedroom – a king room – has a wardrobe nook plus its own ensuite bathroom with marble vanities and a tiled shower. The second bedroom is a queen room, which shares a tiled family bathroom with the third bedroom – a twin room. At the end of the upper level, there is a comfortable day bed with a window looking down into the kitchen. Relax here with a book and catch up on some reading, or perhaps enjoy an afternoon nap after a big day out. If you want to get into town, it is an easy 10 minute walk along the lakefront. This makes Beacon a great option if you want to go into town after a day on the slopes and enjoy a few drinks with dinner and not have to worry about a designated driver! The lake is also 200m away, so you can enjoy a cool dip on a hot Summer’s day with ease. There is a garage for parking or storing the toys, plus space on the driveway for several cars. The minimum stay requirement at Beacon is 3 nights.
