The views are to die for!

The apartment was stunning with the fireplace and views the highlights. Communication was on point with the venue and keys easy to find. The stairs could be a problem for solo travellers like me having to carry their suitcase down 3 flights of stairs. Overall I loved my stay here - it was home away from home.

Another fantastic stay!

We've been lucky enough to stay here twice before, and very little has changed. Same great location, same quality furnishings - very, very comfortable! You do pay a premium for the magnificent view east of the lake and snowcapped mountains. Quality and comfortable bedding, lounge, dining area, and kitchen. Could have easily been comfortable here for a couple of weeks. There has been one change with no onsite reception anymore and the site being managed centrally by Hello Queenstown. The location is both good and bad - an exceptional view so close to town, but Frankton Rd can be an absolute pain between 4-6pm on weekdays. But we'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

Lovely place, views and great location ( we had a car so it was convenient). I thought i booked 3 rooms and 2 bathrooms but i was mistaken, and luckily that was not a problem for us. It was spacious and did have 2 bathrooms. I would definitely come back to it with the family again.

It was a lovely place that's close to the airport and not far from the town. We really enjoyed the lake and the snowy mountains view right outside of the place. The place was clean and tidy, and it came with everything we needed as a home, and we specially enjoyed the fireplace and heated floor. The customer service was the best service we ever received. The team responded promptly to our quedtions and they were nice and patient to provide as much information as we would like to ask. We would love to book the place in our next visit to Queenstown!
