  Loved our cosy Queenstown stay

  The view was incredible, lots of space to enjoy it, in front of the fireplace or in the hot tub. Liked the heated tiles for our winter stay. Comfortable beds with ample space in the rooms.

  The stovetop wasn't working and although we were given detailed instructions about most things in the house, there was no easy way to figure out why it wasn't working. We accidentally deadbolted the door which made it hard to collect our luggage at the end of our stay as the PIN no longer worked – some warning or signage to prevent that would be helpful for future guests

  Not worth the expensive luxury price tag

  The views

  The views from this property are absolutely stunning and were the highlight of our stay. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience did not live up to the premium price tag of over $1,000 + per night. Communication was poor throughout. The spa pool was unavailable on our first night because it had been drained and refilled due to the previous visitors, when we queried this we were told we should have specifically requested it be heated before arrival. There was nothing in the booking information or house rules advising guests that this was required so be aware. For a three-night stay, only one towel per guest was provided with no extra towels or linen available. No sheets, warm blankets or anything. The heating doesn’t work in two of the bathrooms and wall heaters kept turning off leaving the bedrooms very cold overnight. The toilet door downstairs is completely broken so no privacy available for the bottom three rooms. Basic amenities such as milk or welcome back were also not supplied, which was disappointing given the cost of the accommodation. The driveway is very steep for drivers that are not confident be aware and it is three levels with no use of the lift and it’s quite a hike to the top for anyone especially with luggage, elderly people will find it particularly challenging. Overall, while the location and views are exceptional, the lack of communication, unavailable spa pool, and limited guest amenities meant the experience did not represent good value for the price paid.
