Revisiting the Rees after 16 Years

We stayed here 16 years ago and it seems the furniture and fixtures & fittings were the same. Our L shape sofa had a stain. Couldn’t work out how to use the gas heater as it kept turning off. Comfortable stay and unbeatable lake side view. Dishwasher, washing machine and dryer were very useful.

We spent 3 days at the Rees. Really enjoyed our stay. Because of limited parking in Queenstown, expect to Uber/taxi to the town as it is a 40 minute walk to town. The service, the views and the rooms were all excellent. Would highly recommend.

Spacious Luxury Retreat with Home Comforts

Luxury Home Away from Home! This condo-like experience was amazing. The 2-bedroom suite was super clean, spacious, and thoughtfully equipped with a living room, kitchen, and washer/dryer. The staff were highly attentive and incredibly helpful. The location was perfect, with easy access to a walking path by the lake that leads to the downtown area. A truly luxurious and comfortable stay!

Fantastic stay

The best stay of our entire trip! We loved everything about our stay, especially the dual bathrooms and the fireplace. The heated tiles were a luxe little touch and also loved the skincare brand they use! The only con is that they're not in the center of town, but there's a shuttle every hour and it's a short cab ride.
