“Open-plan villas with floor to ceiling windows, glass doors and open plan layout including dining and living areas. Stunning views across Lake Wakatipu to The Remarkables and Cecil and Walter Peaks, only five minutes to Queenstown. Perfect for a romantic getaway.”

Hotel review

Set high in the hillside of Lake Wakatipu, these nine modern villas offer peace, tranquillity and uncompromised luxury only five minutes from the centre of Queenstown. The open plan layout includes a bedroom, lounge, dining area and outdoor deck in neutral tones with big comfy beds, open fires and snug carpets. Each has been designed and carefully positioned to optimise the stunning views across the lake to The Remarkables and Cecil and Walter Peaks. Fabulous features such as floor to ceiling windows, glass doors and sumptuous bathrooms with double sinks and Jacuzzi baths under large bay windows. There’s a bottle of boutique local wine waiting on your arrival and breakfast is provided too. In the evening there’s an in-room dining service so if you don't want to, you don’t have to leave your nest after a day’s skiing, sight seeing or walking in the great outdoors. A masseuse can easily be arranged, and there’s complimentary access to Queenstown Gym. A spectacular hillside retreat.
