My wife and I reserved The View 6 months in advance, which lead to a lot of anticipation in the run up. It certainly didn't disappoint. What a phenomenal secluded place to stay still within a stones throw of the action.
It does exactly what it says on the tin. The view of the lake is breathtaking from the very private balcony. The property is light and clean. Both Tracey and Calvin were very communicative and helpful.
One suggestion is to not bother with the #9 bus. For the extra 5 nzd it was so much easier to take a Queenstown taxi into/from town.
Highly recommended.
