The view from this place is amazing, as it is way up on the hill overlooking the Frankton Arm of Lake Wakatipu. I think a rental car is pretty much a must for two reasons. First, cabs are ridiculously expensive here, the ride from the airport was $34 NZD which is more than what we paid for a rental car with the extra insurance costs per day. There is a path to the bottom of the hill, and a bus stop if really needed. Second is that with any kind of luggage, getting it up the hill would be quite a workout. Nice clean and tidy place that was very nice for two couples, rooms were a nice size, and we each had separate bathrooms. It was also very nice to have laundry facilities.
