I love these apartments. Heated floor boards, cosy bed, fireplace and heated bathroom. The view of the Frankton Arm of Lake Wakatipu was beautiful as well as the snow capped mountains. The staff were friendly and the location was perfect for a walk or taxi ride into the town, as well as getting picked up by the buses to go... More

Stayed at Pounamu for 5 nights in the school holidays with our 6 year old grandson and 9 and 11 year old nieces. We were happy with the accommodation - 2 bathrooms with underfloor heating, a laundry with washing machine and dryer and the kitchen and lounge more than met our expectations. We were back from the road so had... More

We stayed here for four nights in Feb during HM trip. It has a great view of the lake. Check in was okay as we had reached early, we had to wait for sometime. The place is a km away from city center, Shotover street. Its a very pleasant walk though. Shotover street is the main street where you get... More

We stayed at this place during our recent trip to Queenstown, and it was fantastic. Great rates, super friendly staff, and easy access to downtown. We stayed one day, were gone out of town for a day, and then stayed another day. The staff noticed our schedule and offered to let us keep our stuff in the apartment for the... More

We stayed here at the start of a three week NZ vacation. The staff couldn't have been more helpful, remaking the king bed into singles late in the evening and allowing us to leave our bags in the room while we did the Milford Track. The bathrooms were spacious with gorgeous soaking baths. Fireplace was a warming feature and we... More

New Zealand was our destination in April 2013 to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. We had a wonderful 2 weeks driving the south island and spent 4 nights in Queenstown staying in one of the studio apartments. Although very small, it had everything we needed. The kitchen was very cleverly designed and well equipped - we ate at home one... More

Stayed for 3 nights in a one bedroom apartment. This was our splurge for the trip & it was worth it. The views were SPECTACULAR looking out from the lounge/kitchen & bedroom through the floor to ceiling glass. It was fully self-contained with an oven, cook top, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, computer, printer & free Wi-Fi, stereo system, DVD/CD player,... More

We stayed in the cheapest studio apartment without lake views as we were only staying one full day (two nights). We arrived late on the first day and planned to be out doing and seeing things most of the next day. (We rode the Skyline Gondola, drove to Arrowtown and Glenorchy, visited several Central Otago wineries, and dined at a... More
