Hi Rosie! We aim to make your stay comfortable. It's a goal met for us knowing you were satisfied. We look forward to serving you again. Thank you! - TBR Team
We loved this place, modern, clean, tidy and the views were amazing. The kitchen had all the mod cons although we didnt use it much as we mostly ate out. Queenstown is a beautiful place to visit and highly recommend.
Breathtaking views. Well appointed amenities. All we needed for an extremely comfortable stay for 5 people stayed for 2 weeks. Only addition that I felt was needed for our length of stay was a mud stay clean, sheet and towel washing etc. other than this the stay was perfect. Queenstown itself is beautiful.
Spent 6 nights in this beautiful apartment close to the action in Queenstown. The views from the living room were stunning and definitely a "wow" moment. The apartment had everything we needed and was immaculately clean. A fantastic base to explore Queenstown and the surrounding areas. Highly recommended.
The property is all it was stated to be. Amazing views, very spacious living area, awesome kitchen that is fully stocked, super clean, perfect for my family of four. About a 10-15 minute walk to town with one hill, but no big deal. Garage spot was great but be prepared to maneuver in tight areas, we had a large SUV and it was fine getting in and out. Family rated this as their favorite place to stay over our entire 17 day trip. Will hopefully be back again someday.
Easy check in with code key. Property manager was very helpful when our flights were cancelled and booked later on that night. Great apartment living with lovely views over lake. A perfect spot for a weekend with friends in Queenstown.
