Wanaka Bakpaka

Wanaka Bakpaka Traditional Kiwi homestead hostel with spectacular lakeside views Wanaka Bakpaka offers quality budget backpacker accommodation for the independent traveller.

We are the only hostel in Wanaka located right on the lakeside giving you spectacular picture postcard views of Lake Wanaka and the Southern Alps. We are also the highest rated BBH hostel in Wanaka (2013 - 92%) and pride ourselves on our "bus and group free" ambience allowing you to fully enjoy our garden courtyard and cosy lounge. Away from the town hustle but still only a 5 minute lakeside stroll to the centre for shopping, cafes, bars and restaurants.
