Jenna prepared everything we needed for living and breakfast, the house had an exceptionally beautiful view and was the most satisfying accommodation I had on the trip. Bicycles were also provided for us and the house is next to a walkway that takes us directly to Queenstown. Very easy to get around!

    Great location. Helpful staff. Was roomy for the 6 of us. Loved the little deck. Was mostly pretty quiet for being central. Was great to have a luggage storage while we were hiking.

    Beautifully presented, clean, cosy and welcoming. Lovely little touches like cereals left for our for breakfast, speciality tea selection, local honey, plunger coffee (in addition to instant coffee) and some chocolates left for us too. Super friendly hosts and great location just a few minutes drive from QT centre. Great to have the separate unit so we felt like we were staying in our own wee home away from home, quiet location with a stunning view and the sound of the river (and occasional jet boat!).

    Great location. Sort of a hostel vibe with a shared lounge kitchen that worked well. Comfortable bed . We did the shared bath option. Very affordable . Bathrooms need attention though. They do have newer ensuite options which is probably nicer. Overall a great option for a good price

    Lovely space with great views, sufficient space to park 2 cars. Despite the quiet location, place is located near to the town hence getting day to day items and grocery was easy. Kitchen has all the equipments needed to cook up a simple meal even if you're travelling in a group. Host was nice to prepare wine & chocolates for us. Easy to check-in, and host is responsive!

    Great room! Was super comfortable and spacious. Located in a great and quiet area, slightly out of Queenstown but it’s no problem if you have a car. Both Anna and Martin were great hosts and were quick with responding to any questions or issues.
