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! ##### David G. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ellen N. 7 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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). ##### Ellen N.

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. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matt J. 1 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great spot It’s was a great stay and property was as advertised. ##### Matt J.

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. ##### Priscilla M.
