Get checkin instructions and code before arrival! We really had poor start. Reserved 72 hours before arrival. Received confirmation. No further instructions given. Arrived to find everything locked and no answers at property manager phone. Sent text to only get reply it may take a few days. No compensation offered for more than an hour of scrambling. Poor management. Really felt compensation would have been in order. We really felt stuck. Few alternative options. Thankful for Expedia.

Comfortable, large room with all the amenities you need. The only downside was the terrible internet - at times we had no connection, at others it was very slow.

The flightpath of Queenstown airport was both noisy and amusing. It was good to finally get an accommodation that you could hang up coats, etc, but the closet only had 4 hangers...more would have been nice for our 4 day stay.

Great view and very private. All the amenities needed to self-cater and generally well equipped. Walking trails nearby. Fascinating watching the planes land and takeoff at nearby Queenstown airport and this was not disruptive at all. The view and scenery are worth it in themselves.

Private, spacious, warm with a stunning outlook over the Shotover River and ranges. We were delighted that we could see the lights on the Cadrona Ski Field from our room! Meticulously clean and fantastic ammenities. A short but scenic drive (10 mins) from Queenstown so perfect if you’ve hired a car. Can’t wait for our next trip here!

Great views, quiet location, modern well appointed unit. Quiet and comfortable. It is situated in a residential area so you must drive for shops, bars restaurants etc, but we were aware of this beforehand, so didn't bother us at all
