Queenstown's New Lakefront Marvel
Worth every dollar, location was perfect. Apartment was everything we needed for our stay in Queenstown. Highly recommend

Alpine luxury
We love the place! No doubt the view was amazing, and had all the amenities well prepared for us. The noise from the road was not an issue for us because the bed was comfortable and we just fall asleep straight away on the bed. The distance to the city was just a 8 to 10 mins drive so it was very convenient. Don't hesitate to book this place as it was such an amazing place to stay during your visits to Queenstown.

Alpine Village - Lakefront Apartment (2 Bedroom)
great place to stay and fantastic view

11 Esplanade Residences Lake Wakatipu.
It was great to stay at a place that was so easily accessible to the center of Queenstown, with the shopping and restaurants so close. The beautiful view of the lake right across the street was an added bonus.

InnThePink - Brand New Apartment on Lake Edge
We had the most incredible stay at Victoria’s space! The smell from the fresh florals was such a unique and wonderful touch. The space was designed so well and the views of the mountains and the lake are just breath taking. It’s across the street from the most incredible restaurant that Victoria suggested (The Sherwood) and we ended up going back 2 nights in a row to try everything on the menu. The proximity from town is great, you can walk if you are feeling like some exercise or it’s a quick 5 min drive/ uber. We also enjoyed an afternoon swimming off the dock in the refreshing waters of the lake. I cannot recommend this stay enough!

No Cleaning Fee | Staff on-site 24x7 | Bag storage
We really appreciated having a clean, convenient space for our 2 night get away to the city. We are from the states staying in Twizel but wanted to come to the city for a few nights. The place was perfect with all the amenities. Great for kids. Loved the balcony views! Can’t beat it!

Tāhuna Lakefront Luxury

Queenstown Lakefront Dream | Hot Tub | BBQ |
Travelling with family of 6 plus grandparents. Was a great stay and 5-10 mins from airport and 5-10mins from town depending on traffic. The layout was good for us as we could stay upstairs while the grandparents had the self contained unit downstairs. The main living room was great and had a big window that captured the views amazingly. The outside had a nice little outside space with table and chairs and great on the couple of sunny days. The hottub was good on our ski days and overlooked the water which was nice. The property was clean and functional and had the basics. The bedrooms were on the smaller side but was fine for that style and time of building. One thing to keep in mind is that the driveway is a little harder to get down coming from the south if you have a long wheel base. This is due to the orientation of the hairpin corner. It sometimes hard to get out from during busy times if heading south as you cannot clearly see around the corner and can be dangerous.

Fantail-Uninterrupted Mountain & Lake View-access
Beautiful apartment! Very clean looks just like the pictures. Can’t get enough of the views! Had everything we needed down to kitchen utensils and heater. Roughly 5 mins drive to the city. David is also very responsive and checked in on us which was nice. The only downsides I would say are the stairs to get to the apartment, more so only on check in and out days with heavy luggage, but we were very well aware of that prior to booking. Also the driveway is a bit tricky but still overall 5 stars. My partner and I enjoyed staying there.

Lakefront Luxury - Amazing Views
We had an amazing stay! The lake view from our place was absolutely stunning. The location was super convenient—so close to the airport and major supermarkets like Pack’n Save. Check-in and check-out were the easiest we’ve ever experienced. The interior was beautifully designed and made our stay feel extra special. We spent three nights here during my dad’s 60th birthday trip, and my parents loved it so much that we’re already talking about coming back. Everything was spectacular!

Lakefront, amazing views, spa & 5 min walk to town
we had an excellent stay at the Bay House. everything is as pictured— beautiful furnishings, spacious, super clean, uncluttered. the location also cannot be beat with the lake just across the road and an easy walk into town. there was plenty of room for the three of us, the kitchen was well equipped and the washer/dryer came in handy after going on rainy/muddy hikes. it was rainy a few days during our visit to Queenstown but we did not mind spending time indoors at this home playing board games and reading. highly highly recommend!

Lakes Edge, Kawarau Falls
This is a truly beautiful home and now our second stay! We love the views, location, the jet boats passing through and all the wildlife the natural environment provides. We prefer to commute to town on the water taxi to avoid the busy traffic. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful home.

Look At The Lake!
Jef is a top notch host. The house is absolutely beautiful and the location overlooking the lake is ideal. You won’t a better host or property to stay at!! Highly recommend.

Modern Alpine Retreat with Private Sauna
We recently stayed at Emma's place for 4 nights, and it was a fantastic experience for our family of five. The home was clean, modern, and stylish, which made our stay very enjoyable. The location was great, offering easy access to Coronet Peak for our ski activities, while also just a short 10-minute drive to the town centre. Emma was a great host, and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommended!

Private Retreat - Stunning Lake & Mountain Views!
We travelled to Queenstown for our wedding and could not be more thrilled with our choice to stay at this beautiful property - honestly, we cannot fault a single thing! Jo has gone above and beyond to think of everything you could possibly need for a comfortable and luxurious stay. This house will hold a very special place in our memories, and we hope to return on the future!

Lakeview Haven
Julia’s place offers one of the best bang-for-your-buck views in Queenstown! With two separate bedrooms, it was more than spacious for us as a couple. The living area has a gas heater that warms the space quickly, plus finned heaters in each room kept us cozy during chilly nights. The kitchen comes thoroughly equipped with 4 gas powered stoves, electric kettle, microwave oven and nespresso machine. There's also a washing machine and clothes rack to dry your clothes! The hot tub was a highlight — perfect for a solo soak under the stars, with consistently warm water. The location is super convenient: just 10 minutes from the airport and around 15 minutes to the CBD. Plus, major supermarkets like New World, Woolworths, and Kmart are close by. Highly recommended for a comfortable and well-located stay!

Alpenglow - Q1 Apartments
Really great apartment in a great location. Keren was very responsive and extremely accommodating. Wish we could have stayed longer!!!

"The Prospector on Miners"
Our favourite accommodation of our NZ trip, everything was excellent! I can't decide if my favourite feature was the super comfortable bed and linen, the heated bathroom floor or the sensor light for the bathroom! Carolyn was great with communication and very helpful. Highly recommended, we will definitely stay here if visiting this area again.

Lakefront Twin Studio in Queenstown CBD!
The studio was in a great location. It was easy to find, clean and tidy. Will definitely stay if im in Queenstown again.
