About this property

Lakefront Apartment w Magnificent Lake & Mt Views, option to rent Car & Mt.Bikes

Affordable Lakeside Studio Apartment with Magnificent Views of the Lake and Mountains, with your carpark right outside your door.

Super Comfy King Bed with Quilted Electric Blanket and Mattress Topper, spacious bathroom and on-wall Smart TV.

Enjoy alfresco/cooking dining on the undercover Balcony with fantastic new Webber E45 4-Burner Gas Barbeque which has Side-Burner (hotplate) and pots and pans for undercover external cooking, including roasting/frying etc, or just cook up a big breakfast or boil water for pasta :)

Inside a kitchenette with sink, under-bench fridge/freezer with a separate external door freezer (for ice-cream and frozen foods), and a microwave and small appliances, jug, toaster and a Nescafe Dolce Gusto Coffee Pod machine, (BYO coffee pods, available at all the supermarkets).

Your carpark is right outside your door, and there's an option to rent our RAV4 AWD (4X4) Car and Mountain Bikes. (please ask about availability for your stay).

The apartment is right above the famous Frankton walk/cycle-way, beside the lake ... there are literally 100s of miles of safe off-road scenic cycle/walkways all around Queenstown..

The apartment is 3.6km to the Airport and 4.2 kms to the centre of town. There is a bus stop at the road side entrance and it's an easy 8 minute walk to the Marina water taxi, great coffee and food at the Boatshed Cafe and Bakery and other options for dinner at the Marina too :)

Our rental car is an old (year 2000) Toyota 3 door, 4 seater RAV-4, SUV all wheel drive (4X4) with ski/snowboard racks, (please check availability). It is an automatic and easy to drive.

If you are over 25 and have a current drivers license, you can hire the car for the day/nights of your stay for only $59.00 per day, (a run through the carwash, and topping it back up to full before you leave it parked back at the apartment when you leave on your last day. It is a NZ$35-$40 Taxi to and from the Airport or catch the Airport Bus, it leaves the Airport every 15 minutes and costs only a few dollars... drops you off at the driveway entrance :)

You do need to pay a deposit of NZ$500, as this is our insurance excess for any accidents, it is a full commercial comprehensive insurance, (but unlike a car rental company), you get this back in full after your stay as long as there are no incidents ... if you are happy with this, and the car is available for your stay, you are welcome to rent it :) You are also welcome to take the car if you are under 21 to 24 years old too, but the bond then increases to our insurance excess of $1000 for younger drivers. SEE MY FEEDBACK AS A RENTER FOR ASSURANCE WHEN MAKING A DEPOSIT :)

We also have four older mountain bikes which live on site, which we rent out for just $20 each per day, (we can discount for a longer stays/use ), again please inquire as to availability during your stay.

The Magnificent Views of the Lake & Mountains aren't affected by a luxury apartment development on the neighbouring site, however do expect some intermittent noise, for which the nightly rates have been heavily discounted in the short term

Queenstown Council rules allow construction noise between 7.30am and 6pm Monday to Saturday. They do generally start later and finish earlier. There is not usually work on Satudays, but definitely all is quiet on Sundays and public holidays.

The construction site is vast with 63 apartments so noise is intermittent depending where on the property there is work occurring, l stayed in April and it did not affect our stay, however bring some earplugs to guarantee a sleep-in :)

Great place!

This is a perfect spot. Easy to get to ‘downtown’. The balcony is a huge plus - so nice to sit out and enjoy the view. The unit is spotless and had all the things you need. Excellent communication with the host. I definitely would recommend!

Nice Apartment with Lake View

This was a very clean and modern apartment with a nice, unobstructed view of the lake. It's convenient to both the airport and downtown Queenstown. The parking is a little tight, so be aware of that if you are driving a larger vehicle.

Great little getaway

Check in/out process was so easy, plenty of communication and clear instructions. Suzi went out of her way to accommodate a few requests for us. Having the option of the car was also a huge benefit. Super warm apartment, never felt the cold, and a stunning view...what more could we want! Would definitely stay again in the future.

The view from this property is very good. However, I would not refer to it as an apartment. It was the size of a motel room. Maybe from Queenstown standards this is an apartment. From my perspective it was very small. The parking situation was very tight. We got a list of warnings from Susy about the smoke alarm setting off the fire department coming out costing lots of money. So we did not use the toaster. There was an extra cleaning fee for the bbq. There were lots of rules with charges attached which we did not want to be a part of.

Amazing view, everything we needed. Clean and very tidy. Reasonably priced. Only fault was the kitchen, it was really only a kitchenette. Unable to cook even minor meals for a week was an issue.

View, Location, Clean - Loved our stay!

Perfectly sized for 2, the unit has a fantastic mountain and water view. Very clean with a comfortable bed. Small kitchen area with a grill and hotplate on the deck. Everything we needed for a week in Queenstown. Communication with the host was easy, and all of her directions were clear. Parking was a bit tight if you have a larger car, and this is a downstairs unit, so the renters upstairs can be either very quiet or not so quiet. We would definitely stay here again!

Proximity without the hassle n bussle

OVERALL the property is well situated halfway btw downtown & airport. Larger grocery stores a few minutes drive (or bus trip) away. Bus service is good. We used the car rental provided by host. Is a great little get around car. Our stay was comfortable. Big fluffy towels, comfy bed. Nice hot shower with awesome water pressure. Kitchenette & BBQ can service guests adequately when you're keen to not dine out constantly. Neighbouring unit didn't bother our stay, noise can be heard sometimes. Otherwise perfectly peaceful during our March stay. Internet was not great, if you could flip the orientation of the room the views from the comfort of bed would be epic. Host communication was spot on. Gracious and helpful.

Wonderful location

This apartment was pretty small. Not much bigger than a hotel room. But if that is all you need, it is in a great location with wonderful views of the lake and the mountains. You can sit out on the porch and enjoy. Suzi was very responsive when we had some TV issues. But now she has a new TV and cable (with very limited channel selections). It is only two minutes from the walkway to better enjoy the beautiful area.
