The photos do not do the view any justice. You open the blinds and the mountains and lake fill the whole apartment. Walking distance to the centre of Queenstown (40mins along the lake 2.5hours if you take your camera) or a quick 7min drive, paid underground parking on Man St, usually the go. There is a bus stop just outside the apartment on the main road. Since your halfway between Queenstown and Remarkables, do your groceries in one of the bigger supermarkets in Remarkables, cheaper and more options. Finally, when they say allow extra time when driving anywhere in NZ, just double it and you won't be that far off.
