Kamana Lakehouse
We did not have breakfast there. It’s quite a ride to the airport. No shuttle. Earliest bus is 6:00am. Not the fault of the property owner of course.

Mercure Queenstown Resort
Stunning views, beautiful location although a bit out of town, easy quick drive though. Slow wifi although better if you’re in reception. No smart tv or streaming which was rough with the kids as theois no abc kids or kids channel. Hotel is a bit dated.

Ramada by Wyndham Queenstown Central
Our last nights in Queenstown were enhanced with the awesome room which included laundry in the room. Bathroom had heated towel bar. We were able to wash all our cloths before leaving for home which was a big convivence not having to perform that choir after the trip.

Copthorne Hotel and Apartments Queenstown Lakeview
Parking was very tightly spaced but was under cover and convenient. The views from the room were superb and the staff was very professional and helpful. The hot tub was a bonus.
