We did not stay at Lakefront Apartments! We were not contacted until we arrived in New Zealand that we had been bumped to their sister accommodation - The Lofts! Communication was disgusting and although the people at the Lofts were helpful - the apartment had a leaking roof, no cutlery to chop or slice vegetables, no plug for the kitchen sink. On the last night we had no power due to the road works this was not told to us until we went to find out why we had no power!! Would not recommend ever! Why were we not at the lakefront apartments when our booking was made 8months previous?????

The images online were not representative of the properly which actually the lodges not lakefront apartments - it is in poor condition. Carpets a trip hazard. Leaking water through light fittings. No cooling in bedrooms. Slip hazard bathroom tiles. Quilt covers dusty. Would not recommend for the outrageous price - very disappointing property

So nice to have a full two bedroom apartment! It would be perfect once the boil-water notice is lifted but it's such an easy walk in to the centre of Queenstown it didn't really matter too much.

This is waterfront so very noisy for traffic and very noisy from other units in the complex with doors being slammed. Does not seem to be double glazed.

Views are amazing. The two bedrooms with a kitchen and lounge is fantastic for a family or small group. Easy walking distance into town
