I will start by saying that we stayed in one of the Penthouse apartments and on the whole it was very nice. However we did hear that some of the standard apartments were getting quite old and tired and were not nearly as good so basically the standard here varies a lot depending on how much you pay. The location... More

We arrived after booking online to find nothing like the brochure. The apartments were scruffy and in dire need of a good clean and a major update. We immediately started checking for another venue locally and checked out. The young receptionist offered other rooms but to be honest we knew we could do much better elsewhere.

Excellent facilities, lovely and clean! We booked two rooms at the motel and when we arrived found out we were upgraded to the apartments. The view was awesome, the staff so friendly. The walk to town was nice and easy, and just long enough for a 3yr old to do without too much of a fuss. The bedding and beds... More

The title of my review says it all, really. I stayed at Lakefront Apartments last week with an elderly relative, so was looking for two bedrooms, lake views, good value, and close to town. Lakefront Apartments is on the esplanade fronting the lake, a 5 minute, flat walk along the shore of Lake Wakatipu to the marina and the main... More

This is a superb location, just a shame that they are not priced to suit the decor and tiredness of the apartments. We recently rented a 2 bedroomed apartment. The pillows were like sleeping on nothing (very old and need replacing) as was the thin, old duvet inner (also need replacing!). The rooms themselves were fine, but the whole place... More

Just spent 6 nights in Qn at the Lakefront Apartments (3 bedroom unit) with my family. We had a great time, this place really was like a home away from home. Heating throughout, and comfortable. Lots of space for the children to play with a good open plan kitchen, lounge area. Loved the laundry facilities in the unit - so... More

The apartment had a fantastic view. We were in number 10 a three bedroom apartment and paid $375/night so were very disappointed with dated decor, not warm when we arrived and only 2 different wines! When I called into reception during 'opening hours' no one came out. The site has tons of potential and is close to town but was... More
