Spectacular views and just an absolutely amazing stay here! The pictures do not do it justice, we genuinely could not have asked for a more amazing property for our Queenstown stay :) Don’t think twice about booking this place. It truly is magnificent!! The beds were so comfy, the kitchen was well stocked and the sofas were very comfy too. The hot tub outside is also a great added bonus. We will definitely be back for another stay here!

Prime Location with a View
I was blown away with the view upon arrival, it is hard for cameras to show the true size and awesomeness of the surrounding mountains and lake. Just lounging or eating dinner with the massive windows really helps you appreciate how beautiful Queenstown is.
The house itself is very accommodating and comfortable and warm when we needed it to be. The beds were amazing and I had a better sleep here than I do at home. The spa was also amazing and very welcome after a long day of snowboarding. The main living area and kitchen was the highlight for us due to the large space, high ceiling, big windows and breathtaking view. The master ensuite was to die for with the bath having and equally great view of the mountains and lake. A very popular activity amongst the us.
Also, the location was very handy as the way into to town was away from the main road and would avoid the traffic heading into to town, so driving in was always a breeze.
Thank you to our host for providing such a great experience, we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

Large home with great view!
The house was set up very well and clean throughout. Some of the items in the house are starting to show age such as kitchen, TV furniture etc but nothing that stopped us from enjoying our time! Would recommend.

Better than the pictures
My group and I had the most amazing stay here over the New Years period. The check in process was breezy, the house was immaculate and the views are better than the photos. There is a very well equipped kitchen, it has everything you need to cook and a pantry with all the basics. Beds were all very comfy and the black out blinds meant that we slept for hours! It doesn’t get any better than the deck though. The view is priceless and very sunny with lots of seating for you to relax and enjoy the views. 10/10 recommend
