Important Booking Information
All rates are quoted in New Zealand dollars and include GST. Rates shown are indicative 'from' rates and may vary depending on your dates, length of stay, number of guests and seasonal demand.

Peak-season rates and longer minimum stays may apply, over major holiday or event periods.

A 50% non-refundable deposit is required for bookings made more than 60 days before arrival. The remaining balance is due 60 days before arrival. Bookings made within 60 days of arrival require full payment.

A booking management fee applies to all reservations.

A refundable security bond is required for every stay. The bond starts from $NZD 1,000 and may be higher depending on the property, nightly rate and length of stay.

Standard check-in is between 3:00 pm and 5:00 pm, with check-out by 11:00 am. Early arrivals and late departures are subject to availability and may incur additional charges.

Guest numbers must not exceed the confirmed occupancy. Parties, events and additional visitors require prior written approval. Smoking is not permitted, and pets are accepted only at selected properties with prior approval.

Villas, holiday homes and apartments are not commercial entities like hotels. Properties offered by Release NZ are often booked well in advance and can be difficult to re-rent at short notice. Payments are therefore non-refundable if a guest cancels. We strongly recommend that all guests take out comprehensive travel insurance to protect against cancellation charges, medical expenses, travel disruption and other unforeseen circumstances that may prevent them from travelling.

Only the services and amenities listed under Inclusions are included in the accommodation rate. Additional housekeeping, private chefs, provisioning, transfers, activities and other concierge services can be arranged separately.

By confirming a reservation, guests agree to Release NZ’s full Terms and Conditions.

What our customers say

"A stunning location and beautiful house. Very comfortable, well equipped and easy."

MARY, UK

"Buchanan Lodge was fantastic and secluded. I can't fault anything with the house. The house fit the setting nicely and will encourage you into exploring the surroundings..."

GEORGE, CHRISTCHURCH

"I can tell you that our group wish we booked to stay in Wanaka for longer than 7 nights! We absolutely loved our week at Buchanan - the house was gorgeous and so were the views! We also loved the Welcome Pack - we even went out to buy more of that milk. We are already planning our trip for next year so you'll hear from us again soon!"

JOANNA, SYDNEY

"What a wonderful property. Beautifully positioned overlooking Lake Wanaka and with stunning mountain views. If you're after some privacy, get away from it all and completely relax, then look no further. The house is gorgeous and very comfy. I would highly recommend this place to everyone and will certainly be returning one day."
