Perfect property

This property was amazing. The views from the large patio were spectacular! I loved the ability to open the huge sliding glass door that was actually the wall that faced Lake Wakatipu. The property was very clean , the bed was very comfortable and we had all the amenities that we needed. The property was also close to town so it was easy to just walk in to town. I would highly recommend this property.

Stunning apartment and views!

The apartment was large, with a full kitchen, comfortable lounge area with fire, very comfortable bed and a large bathroom which included both a bath and separate shower. The views were absolutely amazing! Everything was extremely clean, it was very quiet and parking was provided. It is an easy short walk into the centre (uphill on the way back). Our stay here was unfortunately cut short due to Cyclone Alfred, as our flights were cancelled twice. Rene and his team were amazing and very understanding. Communication with them was excellent and they went out of their way to try to accomodate us when our dates had to change. We can certainly recommend Highview apartments and will definitely stay here again whenever we get the chance.

Fabulous apartment and views.

Loved this apartment and the beautiful views across the lake to the Remarkables. Very comfortable and had everything we needed for a 5 night stay. Easy walk into town but the bus also stops near the door (I believe). The apartment was very clean but there were a couple of obvious stains on the carpets, otherwise I would have rated excellent for cleanliness.

Eric’s 2 night stay

We enjoyed our 2 night stay here. Although the room was described as no-view, we found there was a view of the Lake and the Remarkables from a large window. The staff were so helpful and kind. Parking on site is a real plus in Queenstown. The room was clean and comfortable. Its a bit of a walk to town but not too bad.

The bed was super comfortable and had a great sleep however was a bit underwhelmed by the place. Room was quite small we could barely walk in it with our two suitcases, there were no outlets near the bed, and the fan in the bathroom was super loud but we couldn’t turn it off so had to keep the bathroom closed. First come first serve parking is not ideal as finding parking was a challenge offsite and we thought it was closer to the lake or had lake access and was instead a hill climb to and from town.

Great spot for an extended stay

Amazing stay & amazing location views. The room itself is a bit like a studio, with a foldable wall to close off the bedroom area. The apartment has a really nice living room with a fireplace, fridge, kitchen, washing machine all built into one.

The check in process was a little stressful as their office hours do not align with what I think would be needed for the area, considering it is a stopping point for many continued travelers, many of which have late arrivals, early departures, and/or tours. I was not given instruction on how my out of office hour check-in would be accommodated so I had to reach out during our travels to find out the process. Other than that, the place was relatively nice except there was a lack of flat surfaces to place our toiletries on in the washroom. There were also an extreme amount of dead bugs around the entry to the hallway but thankfully we didn't run into any live ones.

A clean and nicely decorated apartment with a great view of the lake! Walkable to the main parts of Queenstown but a little bit away from the busy main tourist area, which we preferred because it was quieter. We really enjoyed our stay there and would definitely stay again!
