Great location for a fantastic view of the lake!
Easy to find on main road into Queenstown.
Large spacious room, quiet and clean. Fully self contained apartments, great for families.
Parking out front.
Located about 5kms from Queenstown centre, so we had a car but also local bus stop right out front.
Best view of the lake and long walking track along the front of the apartments.
Wine bar close by and pop up brewery.
2kms to other large shopping complex and not far from airport.
We would definitely stay here again!

Decent room, terrible service
Tried to cancel my stay 3 weeks in advance and they wouldn’t accept. A lower level staff tried to help but it seems management is too greedy. No reception area so if you run into any problems outside working hours youre out of luck.

Beautiful location and apartment. Lots and lots of space in the room and a wonderful balcony with great views of the area. Cooking was easy, layout was wonderful. It’s a bit of a way from Queenstown, but then you’re safe from its bustle.

The apartment is spacious with a very nice view of the lake and mountains. The kitchen is fully furnished. Besides the kitchen wares and cutler, they also provide salt, pepper and cooking which is the basic condiments of cooking

Nice view. Spacious. Nice walk track next to it. Bus Stop in front by the main road.
Toilets a bit dated. Needs updating. Toilet paper was terrible like sandpaper. We had to buy toilet paper.

Spacious and calm, with a great view of The Remarkables. We took all our meals outside on the terrasse.
The only down was a missing remote for the TV in the bedroom.

The property was great with a lot of space, clean and everything new. The location was very convenient with a big shopping area 3 min away and close to the snow field of choice. A bit further from Queenstown centre but once you know where to park in Queenstown and what are the times to avoid the drive then that is not a problem.

Very comfortable and spacious.
Lovely apartment and well-appointed generally. Comfy beds nice linen, amazing location and views - very homely. Only things for improvement would be the lighting is very dull throughout so makes it difficult for reading and it would be nice to leave a bit more tea or tea bags given we had paid for three nights and only had enough for one night. Our friends in a studio room only had one pillow each on a King-size bed - no spares - no ironing board and no soap in the soap bottle in the shower. Also they were positioned right next to a family with young children and very little sound-proofing meant they were woken early by the young children running about in the hallway outside their door. Just little things but its details. Location out of the main township is superb - nicely positioned between there and the Remarkables and Five Mile shoppong centre and the close proximity of the excellent Bobatshed cafe is a definite plus.
