Scenic Queenstown

Great view, nice and warm with heated floors. The kitchen is a good size and well designed. The property is up in the Queenstown Hills so a car is useful!

Stunning views, beautiful property, great hosts!

We arrived to the property and were blown away by the incredible views over Queenstown. The outdoor deck and lounge made for the perfect place to soak it up and relax! Amenities were excellent, loved the eco products as opposed to the harsh chemicals you usually are forced to use. Hosts were great and made no issue with a last minute request for a later checkout. Thoroughly recommend staying here!

Spectacular view

We loved this property. The view is almost indescribable. Located a short drive (minutes) from the town centre but worth it for the incredible view. Apartment is modern, clean, with everything you need. Property manager was attentive and available. They had even arranged for the heating to be turned on prior to our arrival so as it was nice and warm for us. We did not want to leave and hope to return one day.

A very comfortable visit with stunning views!

We had a very nice stay. The house was clean, comfortable, and came with everything we would need. The views are stunning - just like the pictures. Only downside - we did not find the property walkable to town due to the hills and construction at the time. Suggestion - having something in the bedrooms to elevate suitcases, like a bench or or chest, or even one of those foldable suitcase holders would have been helpful (especially for older guests).

Amazing views and total comfort

Awoke every morning to the most amazing views of Queenstown. The pictures do not do it justice. Total comfort and minutes drive into town. The only downside was the home above the apartment. Can hear footsteps if people have children and are active. The kitchen and home amenities were perfect and warm bathroom floors with warm towel racks were very comforting. Would recommend this apartment 1000%. Very safe community.
