the views of the mountains and lake are breathtaking.
the best part of this airbnb is the view, and that was maximized by the sliding glass doors to outdoor patios, and many windows. the hot tub was also a great feature, with again, views of the lake. this home was huge, and something I didn't know until staying here was that America and NZ classify their bed sizes differently! the beds seemed smaller than advertised to me, as I am used to the USA sizes.
the inside of the house was very clean, but dated. it seemed to me that the decor/style was from the 80s and the appliances/tvs seemed well-loved. all very functional, but when paying the premium, just know that it is for the location and views, not a luxurious accommodation. little things like reminders and warnings to be careful with luggage scuffing the walls, or remember to pick up more toilet paper on your grocery trip (plenty provided), and this is *not* a hotel were slightly unwelcoming in my opinion.
overall happy with it!
