Excellent location. You can take the water taxi from the Hilton hotel into Queenstown. It runs every hour on the half hour to Queenstown and the ride back is every hour on the hour. The cost is ONLY in cas=$10NZD. FYI- a local taxi(NO UBER) is a flat rate of $45NZD. The taxi is the best deal, as parking is horrible. Difficult to find and costs money, not free. Best to take the water taxi. The ride is about 20minutes. Lovely views...It is great fun to sit on his deck and watch the planes take off as they come over the deck. The views of the lake are very relaxing. We watched people on the front lawn of the lake practice their paragiding skills on the knoll....There is a lovely BBQ for those who want to cook. Quiet neighborhood on the bay and away from the tourists in Queentown. The airport in 10minute drive(only because of traffic!) behind his location. The planes start flying at about 7:30am and stopped about 9:12pm. There are a total of 17/day right now. Thaks for a lovely stay. We would come again!
