"Location was the only plus (lakeside, 5 minutes walk from Steamer Wharf). Negatives: tired, scruffy, very poorly equipped kitchen, same twin room we had last December STILL stank of cigarette smoke. Room needs some hanging space and/or shelves. Showers need to be completely replaced."

"I had a great stay at Haka. The staff were very helpful, my room was good and everything was very clean. It was also in a great location and walkable to everything. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again."

super close to city centre and supermarket! was so easy to walk where we needed to go! The staff were so lovely and we felt we could always just ask a question, it was warm, clean, and had all the things we needed for our weekend stay. would definitely stay here again 100% !

I was very impressed with the lodge. I was dubious staying in a backpackers (I am nearly 60) but was impressed from the moment walking in. The place is clean, comfortable, has parking, spa pool, great kitchen and laundry facilities. My bed was very comfy, nice sheets and warm as toast when those radiators came on. Great for wet ski gear. The showers were powerful and hot, the ablution area was spotlessly clean. Well done Black Sheep, I will certainly book here again

A seriously good stay! Check in was easy, Lylo is close to everything which makes it worthwhile straight up. I was in an 8 pod room and everything about it was great, bed was way more comfortable than I expected, privacy if you need it but good for a solo traveller with plenty of opportunity to socialise. Bathrooms were pretty good as far as a hostel goes, the staff keep the place very clean and tidy, and were there to help with any questions that I had. Highly recommended and I’ll be staying...

How can I get to Nevis and get around on a budget?
Scoping out the transportation options in Nevis can help keep you on budget. The most convenient airport is 16.6 mi (26.7 km) from the centre in Queenstown (ZQN-Queenstown Intl.). However, if that doesn't suit your budget, you can look into flights to Wānaka Airport (WKA), which is 31.3 mi (50.4 km) away. Nevis might not have very many public transport choices so a rental car could be an economical alternative to see more of the area.
