Guesthouse vacation rentals in Shotover River

I loved driving through the cherry tree lined entrance after a day of exploring the area. Sitting in the courtyard with a drink, walking round the garden getting inspired. Very restful. The apartment was light and had everything you needed. Having fresh eggs for breakfast from the chickens you could watch outside the kitchen window and homemade plum jam harvested off the farm. I was there in harvest time so you saw pumpkins, walnuts, figs, strawberries, raspberries, peaches, plums, tomatoes, all many of plants. It inspired me to do more in my own patch! Lovely informative chats with Sharon and Julie. Felt welcomed and having little Coco the dog around the place was good too. For the type of holiday I wanted it was the perfect spot.

We had a great time staying at Amanda’s lovely place. She made us instantly feel welcome, offered us to prepare the sauna, do our laundry inside and let us use the dryer in the garage. She was very friendly, helpful, but also gave us our space and privacy. Absolutely recommend this place!! We found lake Hawea even more stunning than Wanaka (which is just 15mins away)!

What a perch! Great views across the lake to the mountains. Cozy apartment, thoughtfully stocked and immaculate. Fantastic location for enjoying Queenstown adventures! Lovely hosts, very kind and responsive. Loved our stay!

Really lovely house with a sweet little garden at the back. We were travelling with two small children and it was perfect. A lovely distance from the town and really nice walks nearby. The house was spotless and had super comfy beds and an amazing shower. We would definitely return. Thank you so much for having us!

We had a great stay at this wonderful spot! My wife, 11-month old, and I stayed for 4 nights. Cozy, clean, peaceful. Randall and Amanda were welcoming and extremely helpful. Loved the fresh bread, eggs, & jam and the apples and almonds straight off the trees! We were happy to support and experience this sustainable, off-grid farm. Would definitely stay again if we end up back in the area. =)

Great place to stay with stunning views and very peaceful. The cottage had everything we needed

Fantastic long weekend stay at Shantelles place. Well located just a short walk into Arrowtown for all the lovely restaurants and cafes. Warm and cosy for the colder nights. Shantelle was extremely helpful, responding to questions quickly and allowed me to have a dress delivered in advance of arriving!

A fantastic place to stay, exactly as described, perfectly clean, very well setup and we loved the homemade bread! Nice quiet neighbour hood, safe on street parking right outside the unit. Recommend taking the Queenstown water taxi into town, has a stop a short walk/drive away, takes you right into town, no need to find expensive parking! We would definitely stay here again.

A lovely, peaceful studio apartment. The bed was very comfortable and the apartment was well set up and laid out. Very quiet area to get a good nights rest. Highly recommend.

What a beautiful little space right in the heart of Wanaka. Close to everything & immediately felt at home. Wonderful hosts.

Keisha’s place was very warm & very cosy the space was perfect for a family of 3 however I have a naughty 1 year old so I wouldn’t prefer going here with infants or toddlers as your constantly making sure they don’t break anything the location is not to bad it is about 20 mins away from the town centre but quite close to the airport which is good but overall I enjoyed my stay and I will definitely revisit this place again it was worth the cost !

Absolutely wonderful place, thank you so much Sandy!

RECOMMEND! It was a great stay! Everything was perfect. Sunny and tidy studio, super relaxed hot tub with galaxy and nice location to Queenstown centre! But just one thing - it could be difficult to find the place in my opinion. I found out the place myself because I saw pictures already but my partner who's driving missed it. However I really enjoyed and felt free from here😍 Thank you for everything steph!

Small new apartment, which is good for two people and a little bit just for four. We had a pleasant stay there It's a 20-minute drive from downtown Queenstown . Good communication with Kimberley

The things there are new. But the sink in the bathroom is quite small. Water is easily splash out.

Super friendly host, Rebecca even baked fresh treats for the morning catering for dietary needs which was amazing and so tasty! Lovely cosy comfortable feel and very clean Highly recommend and would stay again, thanks for a great stay!

We had a fantastic stay! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The host was super friendly and responsive, making check-in and communication easy. The location was perfect — close to everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable and hassle-free stay!

What a view! This was an awesome location with a gorgeous view from the backyard. It is a very cozy and quiet place and only a short drive from downtown Wanaka. I highly recommend staying here, Natasha was quick in responding to our messages and was a wonderful host!

Janet's Little Stone Cottage was absolutely delightful and we really enjoyed our stay. Janet was super friendly, generous and helpful. The location was beautiful and the views from the bedroom were glorious. The bed was sooo comfortable. We would have happliy stayed for longer.

We had an excellent stay and Tish was a great host. The living area was cosy and the beds were super comfy. The layout was great and the bathroom was very clean. It was everything we needed for our weekend trip!

We had a comfortable stay. The home was well equipped. The only issue we had was with the spotty wi-fi service. This is mentioned more as a feedback - because for Airbnb travellers this is a necessary facility.

I had a fantastic time staying here for 2 nights. Very peaceful and quite property. Easy 10 min drive into wanaka. House was clean and cozy and just as described. Was nice to see the horses on property along with their cat!! Would highly recommend staying here. I was able to chat with Rosanna and her husband tom for a bit which was nice.

Wonderful place of stay, clean and a convenient location, also very family friendly. We loved our stay there and would come back again!

This might be the neatest and best presented place I've used for a short stay. It was like a real life brochure for AirBnB. The host was super helpful, including letting me arrive early to get some sleep. It's not in the central Queenstown area, more a satellite suburb, but was an easy bike ride to the lake, shops, airport etc. It was a prefect place to rest and to wash everything after a tiring few weeks.
