The penthouse was a beautiful space with great views. The apartment was clean, well stocked with kitchen essentials, and the hosts were very helpful and communicative.

This is a fantastic home base to explore the Queenstown region from.With killer views during your morning coffee and lots of space for the whole family to unwind after the many daily adventures, this place has it all.And if you want to enjoy nightlife in Queenstown - it’s a water taxi or uber away so you get to enjoy the hustle and the bustle, but in a much better price/quality home.We really enjoyed our stay with our family of four
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
This is my favorite stay with VRBO ever. The location is great, far away from downtown Queenstown to be peaceful, close enough to drive or take the ferry when you want to be there. The views are fantastic. The penthouse was comfortable with a well-appointed kitchen. The deck is like having another room. We had a few requests which the hosts responded to immediately. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay!
