A fantastic view of Lake Wakatipu at any time of the day!!
Very happy to have spent 5 days in Queenstown with the view and peacefulness of the surroundings!! We took pictures of the gorgeous sunsets, silver moonlight on the lake, cloud formations- breath taking...We did not have a car but was in good shape for the 15 minute walk to the gondola or 15 minute walk to the start of the Queenstown wharf. Warning to those without a car and in a deconditioned physical state- this might not be the best place to stay unless you are open to having food delivered or calling a taxi/Uber. The last 15 feet of the hill to the house is a workout. Refrigerator, stovetop, microwave, toaster looked relatively unused. Beds, bedding were comfortable. Excellent temperature controlCommunication with property management was excellent (I had a package arriving and worried about the delivery because it was a bit difficult to identify the place when we first arrived).If I was to recommend an improvement, it would be to outline specifically what items are considered recyclable for the house. The bins in town seemed more restrictive than what is outlined by the city.

The two-bedroom property served the purpose for our holiday with terrific views over the lake.
The property is located at the top of a very steep road, which could be an issue if you don't have a car.
The accommodation would benefit from more storage space in the bedrooms.
