One thing to consider about central otago as you get older is medical cover is pretty bad. Qtown a bit better than wanaka as at least kew hospital (invercargill) is “only” 2 hours by road. Advanced private clinics might pop up like is planned in wanaka but id say the prices would be through the roof if you don’t have good health insurance. Then again might as well enjoy life and worry about those things if and when they do happen. Oh and qtown really does get outrageously cold in winter. Those days where you barely get any sun because of the mountains!
