Staying with Alicia and Karla was without a doubt a pleasure on our side. They are wonderful women who opened their home to complete strangers.
when we arrived we were greeted by loud barking - Indi the lab was already aknowledging us. She hase a lovely character and once her nervousness subsides (which shows itself by running around the house, wiggling her tail, teddy in her mouth) she will enjoy a pat on her back or a scratch behind her ears.
the house itself is located beautifully in Queenstown with a great view on the lake and the mountains. it has everything you need. if you can't find anything, just ask your hosts as they will reply in the matter of no time.
As this is a shared home, the hosts sleep downstairs and to access the guestrooms one has to climb a steep staircase and there you'll find a double bed and another room with two single beds. there even is a toilet upstairs. A bathroom with a shower is located downstairs.
Alicia prepared a very thorough guestbook! It tells you all you need to know regarding their home, local tips for Queenstown and nice walks and hikes nearby and the best part, she added the maori story about how the lake was created.
All in all it was a very warm home, and a great stay. We would choose it again.
