Lovely apartment for families
We had a lovely time in this apartment in Queenstown. It was well stocked and clean. The hike up the hill from town we affectionately nicknamed bum burner hill! The only annoying thing was the roadworks happening near the apartment that make access to town on foot a bit longer as you have to go right around (not the apartment’s fault!). The photos are all spot on. I would also reiterate the other comments about rubbish. Maybe guests could be allowed to use the wheelie bins if they put them out and bring them back in to not stress about rubbish? We came internationally so obviously had to buy everything and unfortunately that means more packaging than we would have liked, that we needed to get rid of which made me a little worried. We ended up taking two bags of recycling elsewhere to dispose of in the end. Overall though a lovely apartment.

Thank you for your wonderful review Lisa, so pleased you enjoyed your visit. If we may address the rubbish comments. The challenge with waste management arises from the fact that the council bins are emptied weekly. If a guest fills up the bin on their last day and it so happens that their departure falls the day after the bin was emptied, the bin then remains full for the next guests, creating the risk over overflow that may also lead to a negative guest experience. To address this, the council mandates a waste management plan for short-term visitor accommodation to mitigate the impact on the community. The most practical solution is to allocate the equivalent of the weekly allowance using red-lidded council bins, providing 75-liter heavy-duty bags for guests, totaling 150 liters per week, along with recycling services. We handle the collection and disposal of these bags at the transfer station as part of the booking. Additional 75-liter bags are available for guest use with a small disposal fee. Thanks again Lisa, take care we hope to see you again. Take Care & all the best the Goodstays team.

The views here are incredible. The property is comfortable and spacious. This is an amazing option for a stay in Queenstown. The only downside is that access to the property requires a hike up a steep additional block from where the property appears on the map. Current (early 2024) construction on the streets below also makes the walk to town a bit longer, that is a temporary condition.

Amazing Views and great customer service
We stayed here with 2 families ( 4 adults, 3 kids and 3 babies) and it was perfect for all us! Location was amazing right in the middle of town. Big hike up and down the hills with prams but was to be expected being in Queenstown! Lots of stairs in the apartment so was not a great fit for a toddler but after a few days he learnt how to use them safely. Apartment was clean and had all the needs you needed for a short or long term stay. Downfall was only having 2 bags of rubbish allowed - especially having 2 families with nappies for 7 nights but understood the reasoning behind it all. The information pack on how to get to the apartment and into the apartment was very handy and all communication and customer service was amazing Will 100% stay here again if we come back

Lovely to read your review, we are pleased to read that everyone enjoyed their time in Queenstown and that you also enjoyed the property. Kayla reading your review it seems from your comments that the total occupants that actually stayed was well over the total allowed at this property. The maximum persons this home sleeps being 6 people total. For a stay of less than a week 150 Litres of general waste (2x75L Black garbage bags) should be ample for 6 people. It is important that when booking a holiday home that you register all persons staying and not exceed the maximum guests allowable. Thanks Again Kayla Goodstays

We absolutely loved our stay. The property was easy to find, the place was cleaned really well, and all expectations were achieved. Plenty of room for everyone and a beautiful kitchen and living room to spend our time in. The area was in a great location with the mountains being straight across from our lounge view. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay.

Beautiful view, spacious apartment.
Beautiful views from a homely, well equipped & spacious apartment. Close proximity to the city of Queenstown. We were travelling with an infant so found carrying them up the hill a challenge. The workout was worth the view in the end. Property Manager was prompt to respond during our stay to help with check in and dishwasher. Provided portacot with extra cost.

Great location
The property was wonderful in a great location. Although being in QT the walk back from the main area of town is up massive hills which wouldn’t have been ideal with our toddler and parents. There are 3 levels to the property, with a lot of stairs. Great view. Parking was difficult at times as there were multiple cars parked down the same area as the car park.

Thanks Kaitlin Appreciate your feedback, yes Queenstown has lot of steeps hills which can be difficult for those with mobility issues or young ones, this is the trade off for having such great views. So glad you enjoyed your stay and the property itself, hope to welcome you back next time. Best Wishes Goodstays

Wonderful panoramic views in queenstown
Fantastic views from the balcony. Beautifully spacious living area and kitchen. Bedrooms all of a good size with comfortable beds. Everything we needed in the kitchen. 10 minute walk into centre of queenstown. Steep hill on the way back but good for the legs
