Views on Florence

The view is beautiful

The Wi-Fi is not that good

The view is absolutely breathtaking🤩🤩

It is small but perfect for a 3-4 day stay in Queenstown and would highly recommend, the view is worth everything!

Très bien équipé au vu de la petite taille du studio

Un peu petit quand on voyage avec 2 grosses valises (84 et 118L)…

The view was OK but access was not good and parking was poor

Far to many pillows empty salt pepper shakers a little cramp

This was my second stay here! The photos of the view don’t do it justice!!!!!

The views were sensational.

Not that I didn’t like it, and I was aware because of another review I had read, but there are few steps down to the apartment, which I would recommend not doing in the dark the first time.

The view is beautiful, would be even better when you get to see snow on the Remarkables.

The stairs down carrying heavy suitcases isn't ideal and the parking isn't the best, but they are just small annoyances, for me the view and price made up for it.

Clean and beautiful

I’m giving 10 despite the following downsides: 1. No kitchen utensils available for cooking except microwave. 2. The neighborhood is under construction, which causes a lot of noise.

景色无敌，地方不难找，钥匙盒自助入住方便。

门口的停车位会刮到小车的底盘，非SUV最好停在坡上的路边；房间内空间小了些。

The view of the lake and Queenstown is great! Beautiful sunrise snd sunsets. Easy check-in and check-out. Clean and nicely decorated. The bathroom is nice and the kitchenette has tea, coffee, and everything we needed.

Nothing against it but just a personal preference on the bed which was too firm for me and the pillows are too big and the other option is too flat. The bed is heated which is a plus for the cold weather.

The views were absolutely stunning! The property was very comfortable and felt homey - it was nice to be able to have our own space away from the busy town centre (still a close and easy drive). We very much enjoyed our stay here and would definitely rebook in the future. :)

Certainly can’t go past the scenery, second to none!!

1 Kilometre up steep hill

The location was great, view was spectacular. Very comfortable accommodation.

Path down from car to flat was quite steep with no railings, so difficult for my elderly mom to get down and challenging to get heavy bags up and down. Unfortunately they were building in the street below us, and they started before 8am in the morning.

Amazing view and beautifully furnished

Amazing location, fantastic views. Clean and comfortable. Highly recommended.

Steps down to accommodation tricky with suitcase but worth it for the view!

Small but very clean and comfortable for a couple. Great veiws and away from the crazy busy centre of town

No real parking area

The views were stunning… clean bright and modern accommodation, excellent shower!

Path down to the studio is quite steep for the MAHOOSIVE suitcase I had, there wasn’t an airer or a full length mirror. Silly things…

Die traumhafte Aussicht von unserer Terrasse, die nur uns gehörte, aus dem Zimmer auf den Lake Wakatipu und die Berge! Ein ruhige Lage! Ein sehr netter Austausch mit den Vermietern. Wir würden die wunderschöne Unterkunft auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!

The studio offered a warm, comfy bed, small kitchenette, clean bathroom with toiletries and the most stunning views

The stairs that you need to walk down to access the studio, just a bit tricky with a bunch of luggage that’s all

Amazing view!!!! Great location!

Amazing views. Lovely and clean. Perfect for a couple

Absolutely breath taking views! Quite close to everything.

The hosts worked with us to find a solution, but ultimately we lost out despite booking the accommodation months in advance.

It's a beautiful location but when we arrived at 8pm on the 29th of December and a couple was already in the property. It become clear that there was a double-booking. As we arrived second, we lost out, despite the host telling us she was expecting us rather than the other couple. Booking.com has said the hosts accommodation was double-booked; the host says its a technical error on the part of Booking.com. To say we were gutted that this happened over the New Year period is an understatment - and it did ruin part of our time in Queenstown. The host put us up for the first night and gave us tea as she was still engaging with Booking.com by 10pm, for which we are genuinely really grateful, but the following day we had to find alternative accommodation for 800 dollars for the night in a very substandard motel given the time of year it was. The net result was we booked two nights at a lovely Airbnb but, for the same price, got one night in the hosts spare bedroom (free of charge) and a second in the motel.

It is a small but comfortable room and ensuite bathroom. Comfortable bed with nice linen. A spectacular view over the lake and mountains. The outdoor chairs and table are nice when relaxing in the sun. The kitchenette is well stocked with plates and utensils if you like to eat in.

There is not much space for parking, and it is a little awkward to bring the larger cases into the room as the access is quite steep. We left our big cases in the car.

Great location, perfect getaway for a couple. Amazing view

This place hands down has the most AMAZING view! I was completely blown away!

Well it was hard with very heavy suitcases to get down many stairs and back again. But that’s the only thing that we didn’t like.

Fantastic views. Well equipped and comfortable. A quiet location.

Lovely property with spectacular views. Very clean and modern inside with a very comfortable bed.

Nothing 😊

The view is spectacular ✨️

The view is magnificent, lake, mountains, airport. The bathroom was good, shower was good too. Easy check in with lock box.

The description said there was a bedroom and a living room. There is not. It is one small area, the size of a small hotel room with no space at all to put your luggage. It is very cramped. The description read there was private parking. There is not. You have to park in the street above, about 100m from the entrance to 5a. The other option is to mount the curb to park with two wheels on the grass, which wasn't feasible for our small hire car. While we parked on the very narrow street to unload or load the car, the neighbour was not happy. The description does not mention the long row of irregular gravel steps to reach the entrance to 5a. There is no rail and the lighting isn't great. The only place to eat is the tiny lounge, in bed, or on a chair outside. No table (there is no room). There was no human interaction. There is very little information and no instructions. We couldn't get the coffee machine to work, and didn't want to break it, so after one attempt, we abandoned it. The wifi was slow and the tv often froze. The curtains near the tv were dirty with ??? something green??? on the backing. Otherwise the place seemed clean. The bed was OK, a bit saggy. We learned a lesson about residential accommodation being listed on booking.com. we thought this property was over rated and over priced. We felt deceived and disappointed. If the description had been more honest about the limitations of the place we would have booked elsewhere. We travel a fair bit and we have never had to write such a poor review. The rest of our accom in new zealand has been wonderful.

无敌風景，干淨舒适

Beautiful view. Lovely shower. Extensive selection of tea & coffee options. Sensor light in the bathroom is helpful. Seats outside.

You had to park on the curb/ roadside. Felt like it was a bit of an unsafe parking space. Expect you to wash the dishes & take out the rubbish. When you use the bathroom light, the fan automatically comes on which is quite loud. Couch is tiny

While it’s 4kms from town, the views make it worth it, It’s a great little house for a single or couple travelling, you have everything you need in there, the kitchens were great, tea and coffee provided and was lovely and warm in winter I would definitely come here again

It is a small room, enough space for a 2 suitcases to lay on the floor but you wouldn’t want to have anymore

This property has amazing view located on the hills, so basically it catches almost all the landscapes. At first, it’s hard to find the property cause the house number is on the ground/grass, couldnt see clearly at night unless you turn on the flash light. Check-in and check-out was smooth. They have heater on the bathroom as well which is very good as Queenstown is very cold. The cabin small but modern-built and i get almost everything (cutleries, microwave, kettle, coffee machine, tv, heaters (on living room & bathroom), humidfier, electric blanket etc. most people complained about no stove/cookingware but hey! Who gonna cook on holiday anyway? And another the best touch is the owner provided plenty kind of teas selection and Lindt chocolates. The property also close to The Boat Shed cafe which have amazing view as well. Only 5-10 mins by Uber to the cbd and/or to airport.

The wifi was up and down, so the best bet is you need to buy your own local simcard/data as a backup. Because the wifi too, i cant watch youtube/netflix cause it always buffering. Another let down is because the property is up on the hill, so you cant save money to get bus. So it’s either you hire a car or get uber everywhere. Lucky the cbd isnt far.

Unbelievable view

Check in was a little unclear

the view only

we had no instructions to get in other than “key in lockbox on property” nothing else. when staff were contacted there was no answer. terrible and disappointing. we resorted to the neighbours help in seeking the code which was provided by the cleaner who knew the code and where the lockbox actually was. instructions were unclear and staff were absent and unreliable. absolutely disgraceful and would never return to your property. additionally photos are manipulated to make the space appear larger than it actually is photographing the lounge room and bed separately. only to find out they were 30 centimetres apart from each other with no kitchen or facilities only a bed, lounge, and bathroom. literally. all in reaching distance. extremely disappointing.

Excellent location, great views, nice small room for 2.

Could have a handrail down the stairs for those with physical challenges.

The view

There wasn’t a kitchen to cook in but I still liked everything about it

The view was incredible !

The view is second to none. Being high up on the edge of the hill with the lake view with the view of The Remarkables, breathtaking. If you have large travel bags I suggest putting one on the luggage rack along the large window leading into the bathroom and one on the floor in front of the window next to it to give yourself some space. We managed fine that way. Need to be aware those with mobility issues there are stairs running beside the main house to your accommodation. Park right beside the hedge half on the grass half on the road. Ther is a piece of wood that says 5a so you know where to go. Great shower, comfy bed, nice and quiet.

A compact unit but very nicely presented. Nespresso AND plunger coffee. The view was OUTSTANDING !! Very handy to shops and the airport. Did I mention the view ?

Good view

hard parking of Suv，only suitable for small car

What a spectacular location and view to wake up to!

Nothing. Access is a little bit steep with a heavy suitcase, but this is far outweighed by the views and location

The view and the shower

Tv wifi was so slow we couldn’t watch any tv at all. The room was smaller than we expected and there’s no parking spaces

Loved the location and the unit was awesome, only downside there were no cooking facilities apart from a microwave so had to go out for dinner rather than stay and enjoy the scenery otherwise it was perfect

No cooking facilities apart from a microwave, and no designated parking spot

Good location , good view and clean

Small for couple and low wifi speed

Excellent stay!

My Fiancée and I really enjoyed our stay here. Great views around, quiet neighborhood(besides the planes) and private spot we were in. Not too far from Frankton's airport/shopping center.The shower was the best feature of the property with its strong water pressure. However, part of the electric blanket wasn't working upon arrival either. It didn't really matter to me, but worth mentioning for the next guests. We'll definitely be back again next time we fly down to queenstown.

Very comfortable stay, nicely decorated, had everything needed and the view was spectacular! Very easy to get to from the airport, definitely will stay here again when back in Queenstown.

The view was spectacular. Bed was comfortable.

25 irregular steps with no handrail down from road, unsuitable except for those used to difficult tramping tracks. Dangerous parking option recommended on unguarded steep slope. Very small, approx 8metres by 3 metres and nowhere to put anything, especially the unneccessary large number of bed cushions at night and only space for 2 to eat was outside. Fridge was turned off and leaking water onto the floor when we arrived. Contact was away and no written alternative given - giving an alternative contact number once rapidly in a pre-recorded message is not an adequate substitute Very poor value for money, though this may be typical of Queenstown in general.

Comfortable and clean accommodations with an even better view.

Amazing views, quiet and private, small and cosy with nice amenities, great for short stays

Incredible views sitting on a mountain top overlooking the lake

Great View. Had everything needed. Loved the shower.

Bed was a bit harder than I'm used to. Parking space was small but worked. TV was great with free Netflex but needed Freeview for local programs, news etc

Excellent location. Nice place, very clean, absolutely fantastic views of lake and mountains. Picture perfect location. Right on top of hill. Uber rides to city center very inexpensive and accessible. Great value for money. Has fridge, coffee, tea, microwave, dishes, utensils etc. Very well equipped. Bed was super comfortable. Overall very clean.

Amazing location with a beautiful view. You can watch the sunrise or sunset from the bed. Very easy and simple check in process. Unit is seperated from the main house so you get plenty of privacy. Clean with everything you need. Nice hosts, highly recommend.

The views are incredible and the property has everything you need for a few nights. The bathroom is a very good size and the shower is good. Nice, comfy bed and the kitchen has enough to get you by.

The location at the top of the hill is a bit of a trek however this is the trade-off for the view you get so no complaints really!

Great, comfortable property with spectacular views.

Amazing location up high in Frankton QT, the views are beautiful & loved seeing the planes! Big sliding doors - you can even see the view from the bed. Beautifully styled. Good pressure shower. It is down under a house (the deck) but was very quiet.

This isn't a complaint, just a heads up as you will love staying here regardless - We knew it was going to be small, but if you have a lot of stuff there is nowhere really to put it - no drawers or wardrobe. (few hooks on wall) There was a suitcase rack/stand which if I had put my large suitcase on I would not have been able to get around the bed. I had to put it on the sofa while we were there. The bed Is firm, not cosy if you like a plush top. We couldn't leave a window open at night for fresh air because of mosquitos but I had bug deterrent.

Location was 10 minutes from main town, the views were spectacular. Very quiet and peaceful little spot.

Not a lot of parking options. We had a low car so parking up on the curb was a little difficult.

Incredible view

This was a problem The listing is for 5 Florence Close A This is confusing The property is 5 A Florence Close There were no check in instructions provided - I had to call twice Eventually had asomeone helpful give me the check in directions Not a good start Great p[lace But sort out your listing and check in instructions And make them easily availoable through the app Just an annoying start Thanks

Getting aCCESS WAS A REAL HASSSLE

Absolutely amazing views from the room. Little apartment has everything you need for a short stay. Close to town and close to airport.

The pillows were quite thin.

Location amazing, all we needed.

Nothing

Amazing view and great location. Bed was very comfortable, even had electric blankets. Shower was amazing, it was huge.

Street parking was an issue, there was no where easy to park. Even in a small Suzuki swift. Also very minimal room to keep large luggage items and no bench space in bathroom.

The great view, comfy bed and well equip kitchen

A beautifully appointed, clean and comfortable wee studio. We loved being on top of the world with such a stunning view!

Nothing

The view was great, the room modern and clean.

A little too far from downtown Queenstown. We had a car but we would choose somewhere close enough to walk in the future now we are aware of the lack of parking in Queenstown. I also couldn't have a drink when I drove or otherwise had to use Uber/taxis which adds up.

Way better than expected. Clean and tidy studio. Outstanding views straight from the comfort of your bed, the natural views, lake, or even the lights and stars at night. Next time in Queenstown, we are not staying anywhere else. Every single penny was worth it.

Street parking on a narrow street but wasn't a big issue at all.

Place was nice but wrong address given and no way to access accommodation given!

Wrong address. No way to access accommodation. No answer to the phone number provided as contact. Very lucky, person feeding dog of neighbours knew of right address and lock box and combination. If we didn't bump into her we would have been sleeping in our car most likely.

It’s a beautiful location with magnificent view. I would highly recommend it to anyone travelling to Queenstown. TV has Netfix and they have capsule coffee which is a plus.

Nothing.

An amazing spot with spectacular views. Had a great sleep in the comfy beds. Clean and tidy and everything you need for a relaxing couples get away

Everything amazing view

Could be difficult for an elderly couple with the stairs

Great location with absolutely awesome views of the bay! Everthing in that studio is top quality and it's very tastefully and cleverly furnitured to use the limited space. For the location we'd definitely book again.

It's not a whole 'Ferienhaus' as in the german translation of 'holiday home'. It's just a very small studio (as correctly indicated by the squaremeters) below the terrace of the family's house, that has everything you need, but on a suuuper limited space (apart from the bathroom - that's huge in comparison to the rest)! With 2 people with 2 suitcases and some supplies for the kitchen, the container sized living/bed-room was absolutely overloaded. If you travel with light luggage you'll fit. There is no table to have breakfast, it's just a little 'something' next to the couch. WIFI was quite slow!
