Clinton and Mel's place is truly the Goldilocks of accommodation - everything was just right! The space is located in a nice quiet neighbourhood but is within easy walking distance of downtown Queenstown and amenities such as groceries and dining. On arrival, we found a thoughtful handwritten card from Clinton and Mel welcoming us as well as a few treats including chocolates and a bottle of wine! Our stay was for three nights over a weekend, and we found the space to be a perfect place to retreat to after spending the days out and about in the Queenstown-Lakes District.
A quick round-up of our favourite things about the property - the kitchen is exceptionally well equipped in terms of both utensils and appliances, and we found it very easy to prepare a variety of meals ranging from quick and easy to more complex. It was also really nice to have access to a full laundry setup in a separate mud room, especially since we were in town for a trail running race. In the bathroom, the shower has an extensive range of adjustment that can accommodate individuals over 2 metres, which is really nice, and the extractor fan does an admirable job at keeping the space free of condensation. Finally, there are USB ports present on several outlets in both the kitchen and the bedroom, which made charging electronics very easy.
Mel and Clinton were excellent hosts throughout and very communicative. They also gave us a recommendation for a local restaurant (Botswana Butchery) that we thoroughly enjoyed. If you are looking for a home away from home while in Queenstown, look no further than this property - we had a lovely time and we will definitely look to book again when we return to the area.
