Paul is a great host. We were lucky that he was nearby when our plane arrived in Queenstown, so he was nice enough to wait for us and give us a ride. He also offered heaps of tips about restaurants and activities. The house has an amazing view and is only a 10 - 15 min from the downtown. The small kitchen is functional and more than enough. It might get pretty cold in the evening, but the house is well equipped with extra duvets and heaters.
