Guesthouse vacation rentals in Lake Hayes Estate

A true bed and breakfast in a sea of stale air bnbs! Sharon met me upon arrival and showed me to my private abode in the center of a working cherry (and other things!) farm. The fridge was stocked with eggs, milk, butter and bread, and there was a nespresso machine + a selection of teas. She also gave me a book of local wineries and their backgrounds which I greatly appreciated and used throughout my stay. Would stay here again if I’m ever back in the area!

This place was amazing, only stayed one night and was planning to have dinner in the city, but once we saw the views from the front patio - we decided to stay in for dinner and watch the sunset from home !! Very clean place as well, and impressed by how many amenities they provided. Would definitely stay here again !

Awesome walking location to all Arrowtown main st . Spa was well received after golf and biking activities . Outdoor lounge is great under cover for summer rains and comfy. Everything you need here . We loved it .

Very peaceful, private and sunny. Felt like it was brand new. Anita is so friendly. And the home made bread was delish! Would highly recommend.

We had a lovely and comfortable stay, the view was spectacular. The place was clean and the kitchen is very well equipped. David was very responsive and helpful, gave us clear check in instructions.

Amazing house, amazing hosts, cool animals which you can feed! Setting is absolutely stunning, close enough to Queenstown but remote enough to feel the serene landscape, amazing night sky's too. Hosts went above and beyond and did everything with a smile. Great spot!!

Highly recommended. The hosts were incredible and very helpful. We travelled from Sydney with our 14 month old bub and we were able to check in 4 hours early to settle in. The place is beautiful, nice and tidy with great views. Definitely staying here again.

Suzanne’s property was the best decision we could have made for our trip. Gorgeous rustic design and a working ranch with deer stock nearby. Halfway between Queenstown and Glenorchy the location was perfect for a quiet retreat after a being out and about in town/nature. There are a few guest houses at the location and everyone was friendly and we had plenty of privacy while not being too isolated. Loved it and would stay again or recommend it to friends. Thanks Suzanne!

If you want a sweet Homestay outside of Queenstown and with a magnificent view, this is your place. Well equipped and super comfy Bed. Can be a bit chilly in winter.

What a great location and a beautiful little home. Emma was fantastic with her communication and went above and beyond to help us with our stay, especially with our little one. Loved the location and would highly recommend staying at this beautiful place. Hopefully see you again soon. Regards, Damian

awesome place and location.

The most amazing spot! Unbeatable views of mountains all around on a tranquil farm in Arrowtown. Truly a special place. So much better than paying a similar amount for something tiny in Queenstown. Our 2 kids (7 & 4) also loved having their own little ‘wing’ complete with giant soft toys, a TV, bathroom & wardrobe. Three small buildings are joined by a central semi-outdoor area, but you can mainly close this from the elements with two large doors. It made the stay feel like an adventure and we all loved it! The master ‘wing’ felt luxurious with beautiful views from the bed. Double-head shower was a nice touch. The kitchen/living space was stylish and really comfortable with everything you need. Looking out to a mountain range from the dining table was perfection. Weber BBQ outside was great. We loved the cats / dogs / cows - all so friendly. Close to Arrowtown and the 20 min drive to Queenstown was a breeze. Recommend the scenic drive to Wanaka too. Highly recommend this stay!

We have stayed at Stephs place twice now and will definitely come back again! It’s located in the most perfect location, very quiet & extremely clean, we LOVED our stay here. Would highly recommend!

Everything was exceptional at Jaimee's: it is quiet, clean, modern (with a super-comfy bed!) and Jaimee is an excellent communicator. The unit is very well laid out and provides an ideal launching point for activities in the area. It was nice to be away from the hustle and bustle of central Queenstown and the view was great. I don't hesitate to recomend Jaimee's place to others visiting Queenstown and the surrounding area.

We arrived at night so didn’t realise until the morning just how beautiful it was! The mountains all around are just breathtaking. The accommodation was immaculate, modern but homely and very comfortable. Close to Queenstown- shops/eateries with a car but far enough away to feel out of the hustle and bustle. Thank you for heating it up before we arrived! We loved everything about it and will recommend to others and would definitely stay again.

It was exactly as described in the pictures. Jim and Rachel were so helpful and caring that they messaged us to drive careful as there was a snow storm in Queenstown that night, the road would be icy and slippery. Their local recommendations was spot on for both winery and restaurants. When you enter their house, they make sure the house is warm and cosy with some music playing in the background. Loved it.

Our stay at Mei's place was great. Very comfortable and cosy and has everything you need, with a fully equipped kitchen. There were 5 of us, 3 adults and 2 kids, and felt quite comfortable. The accommodation was exactly as shown and nice and clean. The wifi was good which was really helpful for work purposes. We also really enjoyed the fire pit. Would definitely recommend it.

Finally an AirBNB that looks like AirBnB and not like a hotel. Nice location, well equipped house. Nice to find Milk in the fridge, suagr, coffee and other necessary items. Information booklet for all the necessary information. Heater was kept on for us even when we arrived at 10pm, so thoughtful in this cold weather. Recommended.

Great position. Spectacular views. Arrowtown well worth a visit. Boat trip on SS Earnslaw definitely worth taking. Meal at homestead was amazing.

The Carriagehouse is a perfect spot to stay if you prefer to stay out of the downtown Queenstown bustle but still be close to all the local attractions. The house is spotless, well equipped and best of all has amazing views across the mountains. Walking paths around Jack's Point make for a relaxing way to take in the scenery.

This place is really nice. Chin was very helpful show us where things are.10/10

Great place to stay stunning views great host very responsive and helpful through a street wide power cut and going and getting us extra blankets so we were snug. Awesome stay

What a georgeous, quiet, spacious property for my husband and I in the final days of our NZ holiday - a perfect way to finish our trip. Everything was spotlessly clean and the private courtyard was perfect for morning coffee (thanks to the Nespresso Coffee machine). The most comfortable bed of our trip - it was so lovely not to wake up with a sore lower back and hips each morning and the temperature was perfect for sleeping. We loved that the bathrooms had underfloor heating and sensor lighting under the vanities once it got dark outside. Communication with Sandy was easy and her instructions were easy to follow. Overall 10/10 and can highly recommend.

A delightful place in a gorgeous part of the country with lovely hosts . Everything top quality and comfortable with little extras like fruit ,fresh milk delicious homemade Musli , Vogel’s and homemade marmalade. Thanks guys We would definitely stay again.
