The Space:

Earnslaw A blends classic alpine charm with modern comforts, offering a welcoming retreat in one of Queenstown's most sought-after locations. Full of character and warmth, this home captures the feel of a traditional alpine stay while providing everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Built across three levels, the home has been designed to maximise both comfort and functionality. The ground level comprises the single garage with internal access.

This level is dedicated to the open-plan living, dining, kitchen, laundry, and guest toilet, while the upper level accommodates all three bedrooms and the main bathroom.



Enter into the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, where elevated ceilings create a sense of space and the rich timber features provide a cosy alpine atmosphere. Designed for comfort and relaxation, this inviting space is ideal for gathering with family and friends after a day exploring Queenstown's many attractions. In winter, curl up beside the open fireplace with a hot chocolate after a day on the ski fields, or during the warmer months, unwind with a glass of local wine while taking in the stunning surroundings.

Step out onto the balcony and enjoy picturesque views across Lake Wakatipu and the surrounding mountains. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee or firing up the BBQ for an evening meal, the outdoor space provides a wonderful setting to relax and soak up the scenery.



The property retains its old-school alpine character while benefiting from recently renovated bathrooms, providing fresh, modern facilities that complement the home's timeless appeal.

Queenstown getaway

Easy access, clear instructions , great location Property superb except beds are really not up to standard- mattresses very very soft , duvet /sheet set up unique and possibly not very hygienic. Kitchen could also do with a few more items eg serving bowls .

Hi Christine, Thanks for your review, really pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay. Goodstays, uses the triple sheeting technique adopted by most Hotels, if you search online for triple sheeting, you will see that this technique is extremely popular and hygienic as it ensures that you have new hotel grade sheets fresh for each stay not a bedspread or duvet cover that may or may not be laundered after every occupancy. Warm Regards Goodstays

Great Location / Needs Updating

Location was perfect, although the house needs some updating. Paint on the walls were peeling and the home needs to have portable fans in each room to make it more comfortable. We loved Queenstown and will be back! Unfortunately probably wouldn’t stay in same place. Everything was clean and we had everything we needed for our stay.

Thank you for your feedback, Maida! Much Appreciated. We're so glad you enjoyed the property and had everything you needed for your stay. We’re pleased to advise that the homeowner is currently renovating the bathrooms, which will address the areas you mentioned.

Master bedroom does have a few stairs to get to bathroom area - this is a duplex and you can hear neighbors, through wall. Not too bad for us, however I suppose depends on who is staying next door.

Top spot to stay in Queenstown

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wonderful spot - close to town, close to main highway but far enough away to be quiet and secluded. Great views on patio deck. Everything worked well. Garage was nice to have on rainy days. Spare adapters with iphone charger was a plus. Goodstays app worked well. We had only a minor problem and the response was immediate! Suggestion would be to add instructions for how to operate stovetop and oven (had very detailed info on all other items). We would definitely stay here again and use Goodstays for other places as well. Thank you!
