We had a lovely time in Kingston … soooooooo much nicer than Queenstown which is just plain ole hectic and crowded. Great Airbnb … plenty to watch on tv … fast internet … great shower … beautiful property/views … right on the cycle trail (bike available) … quiet and safe … tons of misc food items which were helpful.
For those who aren't sure whether they'll go to Milford or Doubtful Sound, we went to Milford. The drive is nice, but the parking there is $10/hour and unless you're taking a boat tour, I've been told that Doubtful is nicer and the parking is free.
