The view is really stunning - both the living room and the two front bedrooms look across the lake to the Remarkables - the photographs do not lie. The walk into town takes about 20 minutes along the lake, less if you go direct - and for a family, is nice to be out of the main town centre/backpacker/tourist hustle at the end of each day. The apartment has everything you need for a family - extra plates, lots of glasses/mugs, etc - we stayed for two weeks very happily. Pauline was very responsive to any issues that arose, even arranging for someone to come (within the hour) and fix the wifi when I had an issue. Very happy to recommend, and would definitely go back.
