homestay di Otago, Selandia Baru

We chose this hotel because we expected to enjoy its winery/food. Otherwise, we should have stayed in Queenstown with a lot of restaurants and pubs. As we would arrive in the early evening, we put a note for our hope for experiencing their winery and food (or at least finger foods) when we booked the hotel, and received email that they cannot guarantee but will do their best to serve our need. Since then, no email was sent to us. When we arrived at the hotel around 6 pm, no one was in the information desk, so we had to go to the bistro to find out that they left the key in a safe box without any notice or sending us any email with its password. We had to wait a while for the bistro lady to make a phone call to whom it concerns, which was okay. Worse, we heard that their bistro was reserved for a group event so we could not use the facility at all. We had to drive 15 minutes to a nearby town and bought foods from a supermarket. I think the hotel should have notified us of impossibility of using their bistro/food service due to the group event and we have to prepare for our food. As I checked out, I left a note about the issues, and expected they would send me an email to express their sincere apology. Unfortunately nothing happened so far. Although I liked the room as well as the whole place very much, I think Kinross cottage needs professionalism to run their stay program. It could have been much nicer, memorable stay experience.

I had a truly wonderful stay at this retreat. The place itself is absolutely spectacular — very calming, beautifully maintained, and surrounded by breathtaking views. The deck is stunning, and it was the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The owners were exceptionally friendly and went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and looked after throughout my stay. Their hospitality genuinely stood out. The dogs were lovely and added so much warmth to the experience. Breakfast was excellent, and the variety of teas available was out of this world. As a female solo traveller, I felt completely safe, comfortable, and well cared for, which is something I value highly. The atmosphere is peaceful and nurturing — exactly what you want from a retreat. The only minor downside is that it’s a bit far from the shops (around a one-hour walk). However, this was easily managed as Uber is only a 6-minute drive, and the hosts were also kind enough to offer lifts when possible. Overall, an absolutely stunning place, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable stay

Perfect little spot just outside of queenstown, which suited our needs as we had a few days in the area. The cabin we stayed in was just as described.

Staff were friendly and helpful, room was basic and small but fine for a couple of nights. Very busy with bikers, there’s a noise ban after 10pm but the walls are thin so could still hear a lot even though people weren’t being loud & noisy. Great view from outside our room when the girls next door didn’t have their washing hung out

The lodge was very clean and well maintained. It was a cosy stay for me in Wanaka. The lodge is super close to cafés and eateries too, nothing to fault. 10/10 for the service and they're very kind for allowing me to use the meeting room for conference calls.

Tempat yang nyaman dengan pemandangan. Namun, jalan di sekitarnya sedang dalam tahap pembangunan saat kami check in. Kami tidak dapat menemukan pintu masuk hotel untuk beberapa saat. Kami membutuhkan waktu lebih dari sepuluh menit untuk mendapatkan layanan loket. Pihak hotel sangat perhatian dan meletakkan paket kunci di loket. Kami dapat check in dengan lancar meskipun kami datang terlambat. Sangat menyenangkan karena ada dapur sederhana tempat kami dapat memasak makan malam dan sarapan.

Akomodasi di Queenstown tidaklah murah. Hostel ini sangat dekat dengan pusat kota dan dapat ditempuh dengan berjalan kaki dari tempat berkumpulnya para penerjun payung dan kereta gantung. Ada dapur. Secara keseluruhan bagus dan harganya sangat terjangkau. Toiletnya agak sempit

所謂住在城堡裏，實際上是馬廄改成的房間，房間特別小，屋內的形狀也各異，容易撞到頭。 但是除了上述的客觀情況之外，我覺得都是好的方面，早餐特別好，在馬廄改造的一樓吃飯，咖啡絕了，樓上小冰箱裏的水和牛奶都很好，服務員不厭其煩的為每個入住家庭做介紹，並且帶人去入住，很負責任。 所謂城堡，就是個比較大的房子，甚至不及某些福建人老宅，不能以城堡的預期考慮，花園……好吧……都不如故宮御花園的花多，植物以多肉為主，指望看花就大可不必，但是也算是有特色吧。 最推薦的是晚餐，住這裏可以約dinner，是本次新西蘭旅行飲食上少有的亮點，就四道菜，精緻用心，味道不錯。不介意和陌生人共享大廳的話，就體驗一下長桌晚餐，和當晚一起住馬廄的鄰居們喝點酒聊聊天，一晚上説的英文幾乎是過去兩年的總和，很放鬆很開心。

This Holiday Park was very clean for us and a child. The facilities provided here exceed expectations where there is a place to cook. A very strategic location with the town of Queenstown only walking distance to the beautiful lake. The staff here are also very helpful by providing advice to us where we plan to go skiing and are advised to go early in the morning with the weather forecast being quite good in the morning at 10.00 am.
