Property Description
Welcome Adventure Wanaka Hostel, Wanaka's newest refurbished hostel, put together by the owners of Queenstown's two highly rated and mulitple award winning Adventure Hostels.
Catering to independent travellers from around the world we offer mostly shared room accommodation and run in-house activities 7 nights a week to make it easy to meet fellow explorers from all around the world. We are a small-medium sized hostel, the perfect number for keeping a family atmosphere, which is still fun and vibrant. Adventure Wanaka (AW) is the most centrally located accommodation in town, you are just moments from Wanaka town centre and 2 minute walk from Lake Wanaka beach. At night we guarantee you'll sleep soundly as there are no bars directly by us.
Through 2022-23 we spent considerable time renovating this amazing location. Our spacious and well designed rooms feature custom made hand-built timber bunks that sport ultra comfortable innerspring mattresses. You'll have the luxury of two pillows with freshly laundered linen all made up and are ready to hop straight into. Each bunk also includes USB charging ports & electrical outlets, a reading light, a secure under-bed storage locker, and privacy curtains. Our rooms also include A/C, heat pump, free high-speed wifi and towels are included as standard!
AW's outdoor spaces are the best in town, with a grand courtyard and two deck areas AW is a great place to enjoy a drink in the sun. The guest lounge, chill out room and dining areas are super spacious for such a small hostel. This allows plenty of room for guests to chill out, work nomadically or meet new friends. In our kitchen, you'll be cooking up a feast where you'll find it superbly equipped featuring everything from crockpot's and crockery to salad knives and spices!
Our wonderfully friendly staff, whom all live on-site with our guests, can help you plan your activities and time in Wanaka. We have separate storage/locker rooms with one for luggage of those guests arriving and departing, and another for secure bicycle parking and ski & snowboard storage. AW also offers loads of free stuff and even a simple laundry service.
Operated by a well-travelled owner, we draw on experience from having collected the best ideas from hostels in dozens of different countries and putting them all in the one place amazing place! We can't wait to host your Wanaka Adventure.

Such good vibes, hostel filled with like minded skiers/boarders which made it so much fun! Great kitchen, perfect location, nice spacious rooms and heaps of social areas. The shared toilets in the kitchen building could have been a bit cleanlier/toilet paper needed better restocking but not many other complaints. Didn’t see much of the staff but didn’t particularly have any questions for them so it didn’t matter. They do shut the kitchen after 11pm which can be a bit annoying.

I enjoyed my stay at this hostel. All the people were mostly skiers and boarders and were very friendly. The kitchen was the only spot to hangout but there was usually good music playing. Also in a great location. Provided shower towels which was a great touch. Would stay here again because of the fun ski bum vibes.
