Excellent views from the living and every room. Very clean, quiet and well managed apartment with great facilities. The location, great relaxing walk to the town centre and back almost every evening. Excellent communication with the office.

Didn't get the oven to start up but workaround it by using the stove. It will be good if appliance instructions are left next to it. I could ring the front desk but, really, a minor matter.

Great view and lovely walk into Queenstown along the lake - also we enjoyed the sauna.

Absolutely stunning view and location! We stayed in cottage number 2, which has been completely renovated. Everything was perfect: spacious rooms, beautiful bathrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen. A very large living room with a view of the lake and mountains. The hosts are wonderful people and gave us plenty of tipsโ€”highly recommended!

The location by the water was superb. The weather was great, and it showcased the beauty of the place.

The geography of the surroundings means you need to be able to climb steps. But this was manageable..

We were in apartment no 3. The view from the apartment was spectacular across the lake from living room and main bedroom below. The apartment is on two levels living and kitchen etc, top level and bedrooms on lower level so there are stairs to navigate. The apartment was well furnished and comfortable although a little dated and obviously more suited to a ski holiday. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

We booked a weeks stay at a 5 star apartment and it was expensive so we expect the best. The orientation to the view is 5 star and the apartment space and furniture is excellent but a few things need improving. Cheap equipment in kitchen eg hotplate old and dials impossible to read. Oven trays not cleaned properly.Utensils equipment etc. not really so good eg frying pan burnt bottom, variety of bowls etc missing. A minor point but for money paid we expect toilet paper to be 3ply at least not tissue paper thin. A big issue was car parking. Although each apartment has a garage, access is very difficult and tight, particularly apartment 3, because of the slope - necessitating either a 5 point turn backing out to exit forward, or a hairy back out to main access road. A large SUV would have great difficulty. Walking to town a little further than I expected.

Beautiful large apartment with spectacular views and walkable along the shore into Queenstown.

The complex roads demand some very tricky driving and we chose to park alongside the pool rather than negotiate the terrible camber trying to use the apartment garage.

Immediately the door to the apartment was opened it smelt clean and of new carpet. The panoramic view of the lake was spectacular. The apartment was beautifully presented and had absolutely everything we needed and more. It was a 20 minute walk along the lake path to the centre which was very manageable. We had four nights at this beautiful property and wish we could have stayed longer.

Spacious property - everything we needed for our stay and brilliant view with big windows and little balcony to sit out on.

Nothing really - so on a personal note - My husband has a few problems with balance so probably walk down to the walk to town would be a little difficult for him. I walked no problem and also plenty Ubers available so easy to navigate around. Also to have a brilliant view you are going to have a few hills. So all good.

amazing apartment which was huge! on two levels. Beautiful view over the lake from large picture windows and a small balcony. very spacious open plan, lovely kitchen area with everything we needed. Even had a garage for our car. Steps out the back down to a path which was then a lovely lake side walk into the city. Amazing place for shops, restaurants, great buskers in the evening. we had the best trip of our months tour, to Milford Sound. We took the coach there, then the cruise, finished off with flying back in a small plane. Saw hundreds of waterfalls and flew over glaciers, amazing experience.

Wow! We were so lucky to be in Apartment 2 which had recently been renovated. The renovations were outstanding and it was an absolute pleasure to sit in the lounge area and take in the magnificent views. A great location where you can stroll into the centre of Queenstown which is a bonus considering the chaotic traffic and lack of parking.

Be aware parking on site is challenging but this is not uncommon due to the location but not a major issue.

Fantastic views of Lake Wakatipu, the rooms were large, so it would suit a long or short stay, close to Queenstown.

I was a bit disappointed, the whole place is a bit tired, needs a good spring clean & touch up, smelt a bit funky. Top level floor creaks badly, showers only had one speed - sandblast. Bathroom fans clogged, didn't work, main king bed super hard, basic kitchen facilities, utensils.

We loved our stay at the apartment, and were blown away by the stunning view of the lake and mountains as we entered the living area. The accommodation was mostly very well equipped and we had everything we needed to make our stay very comfortable. The location was perfect, very quiet, but only a 25 min walk along the very pretty lakeside into Queenstown. The washing machine and drier were also great, thankyou.

The parking. Unfortunately, like other guests we did find it rather challenging, and reckoned that we had one of the 2 worst garages to park in (appnt no 10). However, after the initial shock our very able driver navigated it well and was able to manoeuvre our car in and out of the garage. Also, possibly a few more, and larger mugs and some extra crockery would have been useful as we had lots of room in the dish washer, and would rather have not kept putting it on because we had run out of things.

The location is great, overlooking the lake and a 25 min walk along the lake edge path. The property is very dated, so it's a bit cheaper than other similar properties in Queenstown. It is large and there are heaters to keep it warm, but, the bed is rock hard and the worst bed we slept in over 26 days in South Island. Unfortunately for us, we had 5 nights in it and had to put bedspreads and throw rugs under us to even get any sleep. We usually check reviews for how the beds are in any place we stay as we both have back issues, I don't know what happened here. We were in no.11.

The view, the facilities, the people, the view, the pool, the proximity to town without being in town - It matched everything we'd hoped for. Power boats, personal boats and water taxis passing your window all day. Rainbows from the balcony, stars at night Nothing disappointed from the core perspectives

A construction site to our left was audible all day and not ideal - but that's not on Spinnakers. The lack of a cover over the balcony to shelter from rain. The parking was tough but certainly not impossible for most competent drivers. As a person with a mobility disability I only went bonnet deep into garage to park but that was no issue, for us or our neighbours access.

We loved the view from each unit. The townhouses were very spacious and well decorated. The bath and kitchens all well appointed and supplied. Easy parking in front of the units. Really appreciated the washer and dryer units as easiest we found on a vacation to use. It a bit of a walk into Queenstown, so better to have a car to go back and forth. Was nice to do breakfast in our unit and even have wine and appetizers in the evenings all together.

The access from the main road is a little tricky, but once you figure it out it is fine. There are stairs in the unit as the bedroom and bathroom is downstairs from the living room and kitchen.

It's one thing to have a lake-view, it's another thing top have a lake-view without seeing ugly rooftops ahead of you. You see the lake side greenery and path leads to the lake-side walk, making a stroll to the town centre truly relaxing.

The washer and dryer are next to the bedroom door and the vibration rattles the doors affecting your sleep. Don't use these during the night. Do it when you are going out.

this place was amazing! We loved that it had such great views right from the living room as well as the two bedrooms!It was also in walking distance from town and other dinning spots. It was a nice quiet location away from the crowds down town. It also has amazing outdoor areas to enjoy which is something we really look for when traveling. everything was very comfortable. Also Sue was very helpful with places to see and where to get good food. She was very friendly.

We didn't really see anything that was in need of changing

Be careful with parking if youโ€™re bringing a bigger car, itโ€™s a little tight. Also some kitchen equipment like pans should be replaced, apart from that it was perfect :)
