Apt12 Lakefront Apartments
The absolutely breathtaking views, just a few minutes' walk to Queenstown center. Deborah provided lots of helpful information. The room was well-equipped and incredibly cozy — I’d choose it again next time. Highly recommended!

Right on the Lake Front!
Loved the place. It was exactly as described and better than I could imagine. Everything was easy and smooth. Lyndal is always there to help you with anything. Overall, great way to make our Queenstown trip memorable.

Beauty on The Bay - Best location in Timaru!
very comfortable home to take a break. Great bars and restaurants at your door.

Retro Charm close to Queenstown airport
A wonderful place with beautiful surroundings, quiet and comfortable.

No Cleaning Fee | Staff on-site 24x7 | Bag storage
We really appreciated having a clean, convenient space for our 2 night get away to the city. We are from the states staying in Twizel but wanted to come to the city for a few nights. The place was perfect with all the amenities. Great for kids. Loved the balcony views! Can’t beat it!

3 Level Lakeside Luxury, Bikes & Car Rental Option
thank you so much. Was a amazing stay. cant wait to come back. Will definitely be staying here again.

Lucky #8 Penthouse
Had a great weekend in Queenstown staying at Charlie and Rob’s. It’s a great set up, my friends and I loved it. I’d also strongly consider bringing my wife and kids back here, as the apartment would be perfect for families also.

Taihuna Lakefront Luxury

Waterfront house rentals

Wairua Moana ~ Spirit of the Sea
Our stay well & truly exceeded our expectations! The views are stunning and the home has been thoughtfully designed and furnished. The beds are comfortable, the gas fire was on for us on arrival, the bathroom spotless and well thought out. Would highly recommend - we will be back for sure.

Fabulous beach front house by the sea
Great wee place to stay, clean and tidy. Lots of things to do, books, games, TV, etc. Has most amenities you’ll need!

Modern Lakefront Holiday Home
I had a great time with my family at this Air bnb, it had amazing views, the house was clutter free and very clean, felt just like being at my home. Kids loved the bunk beds 😊

Pure Lakefront, Corner Peak Cottage
We had a fantastic stay! The cottage is incredibly well-equipped, and we especially loved the fireplace, which made the evenings warm and cozy. The view is absolutely stunning, probably one of the best lakefront locations on Lake Hawea. The hosts were also very responsive and friendly, always quick to help with any questions. We would love to come back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfort and amazing scenery!

Lake View Townhouse
Jimmy was a very thoughtful and responsive host . The house was very comfortable with stunning views. The setting opposite the lake is beautiful, and a great base for exploring other areas of interest around Queenstown. We’d highly recommend Jimmy’s place.

Kakanui Surf Bach
This property is such a gem, it’s a bit like stepping back in time to a proper family bach, but one that has been cared for really well. The position is absolutely stunning; the most amazing view - sitting with the door open listening to the birds and the sea was glorious. And a big walk along the beach below was a great start to the day I cannot wait to come back here, I felt so relaxed after a couple of nights here, I only wish it had been longer. Super easy to drive back to Oamaru, 15 mins tops.

Archtecturally Designed Home with Stunning Views
This is the most striking house in the most beautiful location I have stayed in New Zealand. If you have a big group and are looking for something posh, this is a terrific place. We felt right at home.

Lakefront Luxury @ Pisa
The house was terrific, spotlessly clean and attractive with a beautiful view out to the water from the living area. It is a quiet area, the beds are super comfy and everything felt thought through and welcoming. If we were staying for longer we would have certainly pottered off along the walkway beside the water. Wendy was very friendly and I would definitely stay again.

"The Prospector on Miners"
Our favourite accommodation of our NZ trip, everything was excellent! I can't decide if my favourite feature was the super comfortable bed and linen, the heated bathroom floor or the sensor light for the bathroom! Carolyn was great with communication and very helpful. Highly recommended, we will definitely stay here if visiting this area again.

Lakeside Escape
The place is self-sufficient and offers a gorgeous view of Lake Wakatipu. It was perfect for our family with a toddler—fully equipped with all the necessary amenities. Very private, clean, and in a great location. Being close to the airport, we occasionally spotted airplanes, which was an absolute hit with our toddler! Highly recommend

Absolute Waterfront Studio. Unreal CBD location!
Exactly what we needed for short stay in Queenstown. Great location walking to everything. Host is amazing and extremely responsive! Couldn’t have been better.

Lakeview Haven
Julia’s place offers one of the best bang-for-your-buck views in Queenstown! With two separate bedrooms, it was more than spacious for us as a couple. The living area has a gas heater that warms the space quickly, plus finned heaters in each room kept us cozy during chilly nights. The kitchen comes thoroughly equipped with 4 gas powered stoves, electric kettle, microwave oven and nespresso machine. There's also a washing machine and clothes rack to dry your clothes! The hot tub was a highlight — perfect for a solo soak under the stars, with consistently warm water. The location is super convenient: just 10 minutes from the airport and around 15 minutes to the CBD. Plus, major supermarkets like New World, Woolworths, and Kmart are close by. Highly recommended for a comfortable and well-located stay!

Alpenglow - Q1 Apartments
Really great apartment in a great location. Keren was very responsive and extremely accommodating. Wish we could have stayed longer!!!

Lakefront Twin Studio in Queenstown CBD!
The studio was in a great location. It was easy to find, clean and tidy. Will definitely stay if im in Queenstown again.
