We had a very comfortable family holiday in this lovely house with plenty of room for relaxing and enjoying the stunning views over Queenstown. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped and the bathrooms were very nice with great water pressure. All in all, a fantastic place to stay!

Gave 4 stars only for ‘how accurate was the property listing’ because it is actually better than what was described! E.g. Kitchen is fully equipped and there is hair dryer. We had everything we need for our stay. The property is conveniently located, spacious, clean and comfy just like home! We enjoyed the mountain view. Hosts were friendly, helpful and answered messages promptly. Feel very lucky finding this property.
