Family stay

What a amazing spot amazing views. Really like how bedroom was away from lounge. Was a bit disappointed spa wasn't in kids were really looking forward to that and it was one of the main reason we looked at this place. Also there were no towls provided so we had to go purchase or own.

No-one was more disappointed than our owners about the new Spa; with heavy winds, heavy rain and snow work was affected by 2 weeks.. however our owners hired a spa for this period to ensure our guests weren't affected. Towels are included with our linens in every room and bathroom, we do recommend if guests wish to have spa towels, then simply let us know and we can arrange additional hired towels or alternatively you're most welcome to travel with your own spa towels

Million dollar view

The house is lovely and cosy, with the most incredible views over the water from the deck. We stayed as a family of 5 and found it comfortable and close enough to Queenstown to walk to most of the attractions, although off street parking was great too. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful stay in Queenstown!

Fantastic views, steep car parking - good hand break essential!

Fantastic views, steep car parking - good hand break essential! Clean, lovely, great location- few mins from Q-town centre by car. Unfortunately dissapointed that despite the ticked washing machine and cooler facilities viewed on property website, we received an email just prior to our arrival saying a wash was $10 and that the kitchen could be used for light meals and snacks. We feel these details should be made clear before you book. Apart from this, everything was great, thank you!
Response from VrboOwner on 25 Mar 2020
Thanks for your feedback Christopher, however for future guests reading this, I'd like to make the following corrections - Parking. There are 2 spaces, either beside (flat) or in front of the garage on the driveway. Its very short and only steep at the bottom. - Kitchen. Is fully equipped with lots of utensils, and for full use. - Laundry. Complimentary, includes detergent. An honesty box is there as often guests will use the opportunity to wash lots and use the dryer
