Garden Cabin with Mountain Views- Outdoor Bath!
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)!

Remarkable View Apartment
We had a beautiful stay in Queenstown. The location had amazing views after some rain and snow blanketed the remarkables. Perfect for our family of four!

Peak-Sportchalet - 2-bedroom Chalet
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!

Secluded Sanctuary, Stunning Mtn Views, nr Wanaka❤
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. =)

Sunny & Modern, Garden Cottage
Great place to stay with stunning views and very peaceful. The cottage had everything we needed

Charming self-contained unit
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!

The Spruce Hus, Studio by the Lake.
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.

Modern 1 bedroom Unit with adventure at the door.
Great spot unfortunately the weather wasn’t great for much outdoors but easy access to fab cafe pub and supermarket

Woodpecker Studio
What a delightful and comfortable bnb. We had a wonderful stay in Rob’s place. It was beautifully presented, private and comfortable. It is beautiful appointed, modern, clean and spacious. I’d definitely stay again if given the opportunity.

Peninsula Bay Guest House
We had a lovely stay, very cosy spot and nice and warm with great afternoon sun coming in. Had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Jet the dog was so sweet and well behaved!

5-Star Boutique Retreat
Pros: Quiet and lovely place. The SPA pool was amazing and garden view was great. Cons: WIFI was slow and no breakfast provided.

Relaxing 1 bedroom studio with a private deck area
Very convenient location, just a few minutes drive from the town center! It was nice and cozy unit in a quiet neighborhood… Sandy was very responsive and helpful with addressing our needs. Great stay and would recommend!

Sunny studio with hot tub and mountain views
We had such a beautiful and relaxing time staying at Steph’s studio and it really became a home away from home for us! It was so peaceful and away from the busy Queenstown which was perfect for us. The scenery was breathtaking and the studio itself had everything we needed; perfect for a 1 night or 1 week stay. We would recommend staying at Steph’s studio to anyone looking for a serene place to stay away from the hustle and bustle!

Adorable 2-bedroom guesthouse with onsite parking
Lovely unit in quiet neighbourhood. Very close to amenities but felt out of the way. Grace was a welcoming host and provided great information.

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

Hillside Retreat & Woodstoked Hot Tub
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful and relaxing place. The hot tub is amazing, and the personal touch of checking in to see if/when we wanted it lot every day was really kind. Whether it’s watching the stars by night or staring at the view by day, this is the perfect spot to do it from - comfortable and well-equipped.

Cosy on Cumberland
Our stay at Mei's place was great. Very comfortable and cosy and has everything you need, with a fully equipped kitchen. There were 5 of us, 3 adults and 2 kids, and felt quite comfortable. The accommodation was exactly as shown and nice and clean. The wifi was good which was really helpful for work purposes. We also really enjoyed the fire pit. Would definitely recommend it.

Studio Apartment @ Cherry Tree Farm
The accomodation was fab, set in a quiet spot among their horticultural property. Only a few minutes from Cromwell, we enjoyed being able to unwind and explore.

Wanaka WOW
Natasha’s proactive communication and brilliant recommendations made our stay one of the highlights of our trip. The property exceeded expectations. Clean, comfy, just the right amount of privacy, and stunning views to boot! Can’t recommend staying with Natasha highly enough!

The Little Stone Cottage
The Stone Cottage was perfect. Warm, quiet and in a lovely setting surrounded by gardens and with views of the lake and mountains. It is very well-equipped and spotlessly clean. The bed is very comfortable too! Janet is a great host with excellent recommendations and on hand if you need anything. We really enjoyed our stay.

Rural Retreat minutes from Lake Hāwea
Beautifully clean and peaceful apartment on a farm property surrounded by beautiful mountains. Very scenic and my kids enjoyed being close to the animals too, very friendly hosts. Will come back.

Guesthouse Remarkables
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.

Towack Beach House Next Door Brand new studio
Beautiful, clean, quiet and cosy perfect for a couple of relaxing days.

Lorimers Retreat, Te Anau
Very good location, near to the beautiful lake. Easy to drive in and park. Adam is be friendly and gave clear instructions for check in. Very sweet to have welcome treats. We had a great time there.
