This place has great views across Lake Wakitipu and the Remarkables. It is a 20-25 minutes walk into town, otherwise about a 5-10 minute drive. The no. 11 (yellow) bus is another option on Frankton Road. Reception is open 9-5, but there is a resident manager onsite.
When you enter the property there is a sign that says "luxury apartments" - these may have been luxury apartments when they first opened but they are starting to show signs of wear and tear. The apartment I stayed in was nice enough and had cable TV with 50 channels. However the appliances were dated (and a bit smelly e.g dishwasher), carpet was worn in stairwells, light globes needed replacement and some basic utensils like a chopping board were missing. There was mould in the shower recess and some mirrors were not clean. The balcony was tiny and I did not feel safe on it. There was no internet access. Apartments are not serviced so you need to empty bins etc and keep place clean yourself. There is no restaurant on the premises. The apartments in the complex are staggered on a hillside. The roads leading to the apartments are very steep. Reception is located half way down the complex and not at the entrance which seemed strange. Walking up and down roads is perilous. There is no path with steps and railing, just the road, so in winter if the road surface freezes over if it's wet, it's quite slippery and dangerous.
I probably wouldn't stay here again unless some improvements were made. There are better properties to stay at offering the same views but better quality apartments and service.
