The Cottage at WildEarthLodge

ThomasRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Absolutely beautiful property! We had such a great time relaxing at Wild Earth Lodge and truly enjoyed the wood burning fireplace as well as making dinner every night while we stayed in after a long day in Mount Aspiring National park. Highly recommend this amazing AirB&B.

Modern cosy 2 bedroom cottage

TimRating, 5 stars7 months ago
This place is amazing! Set in a terrific location this new and well equipped house is very nicely furnished indeed, and super comfortable. Oh, and the hot tub under the star was wonderful. I would highly recommend this place and the host Rachael was super helpful with getting my daughter to the start of a marathon race when our flight was delayed. Thanks for an awesome stay.

Luxury Cottage with hot tub and bikes.

AlexRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Such an adorable cabin! The whole place is so thoughtful and comfortable, from the fluffy towels and incredible bathroom to the comfy bed to the snacks in the fridge. It is, as others have mentioned, close to the road, but that never bothered us at all--there's really not a ton of street noise, and it's honestly much quieter than the center of Queenstown. It was so easy to get everywhere we needed to go, though, and it was great to have parking. Plus the hot tub was so lovely! We would definitely come back here the next time we're in Queenstown.

Creagh Cottage, mountain getaway

ConnorRating, 5 stars10 months ago
Photos don’t do the view justice. Jeremy was a great host. This is a cabin type experience. We stayed in the winter and used the cottage as a home base for skiing and other activities which was great. Quick ride over to Arrowtown and Queenstown but far away enough to feel private and peaceful. Some important points regarding previous reviews I read about the place being “cold”…the ground floor is all slate stone…as Jeremy recommended, just bring some sandals or slippers to wear around. There is a large heat pump, a lovely pot belly stove, and space heaters and all the beds have blanket heaters which we actually didn’t use because they were too hot…so it’s easy to stay warm and the view and coziness are well worth it, but if you’re expecting a thermostat in a hotel room that you set and leave…this wouldn’t be the place for you. We loved our stay and the host was very responsive.

Snowshoe Cottage

BredaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Clare’s place was fantastic. So so well appointed with everything you could possibly need - it was so well considered. The location was stunning and perfect for a chilled cosy weekend in front of the log burner. Instructions for check in and the house itself were super easy to follow and Clare was brilliant for communication. Highly recommend adding on the spa pool for a relaxing soak overlooking a gorgeous view.

Historic Clyde cottage, restored & welcoming

AuraRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We loved Louise’s place and had a wonderful time there in her beautiful garden as well. Lovely meeting her and her friendly dogs also! The cottage is charming with all the amenities you’d need - we were welcomed with freshly picked raspberries that were delightful. Located next to all the best coffee shops and restaurants in Clyde, we would love to come back and stay for longer next time.

Queenstowns Country Cottage, 12min from CBD.

JaimeRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This cottage was absolutely perfect for our needs! We had our 1 year old with us and wanted a child friendly location near Queenstown but not in the high traffic areas. Not only did this tick those boxes, but it was immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. We were 15min drive from anything we wanted to do and got to enjoy the beauty of the countryside + fresh eggs!!

Magical stay in Wanaka. We adored Bella's place which suited us so well. Thank for the excellent communication and the wonderfully warm and homely feel your place has. Oh, and the magnificent Autumn weather too! Can't wait to bring the rest of the family next time. Thank you Bella.

Wanaka Cottage

KirstyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We spent a lovely weekend in this delightful cottage. The barbeque and spa pool got plenty of action along with the outdoor seating area. Jacqueline and Ash are great hosts and our roast lamb was made even more delicious by the rosemary fresh from the garden. Easy access to Wanaka township and surrounding attractions. Highly recommend and we'd definitely stay again.

The Cottage

PaulRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Fantastic setting and beautifully clean modern cottage. Hosts are fantastic, helpful and lovely people. Extremely responsive and offered to help with anything we needed but everything was provided. Place was immaculate….and a great view of the mountains. Felt like a semi rural setting with garden and lots of lawn.

Lake View Earth Cottage

ValliRating, 5 stars1 week ago
One of the best Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in! The photos don’t do the views justice—waking up to the mountains and Lake Hawea took our breath away. We loved grounding barefoot in the mornings, soaking in the crisp mountain air and peaceful surroundings. It was the perfect spot for meditation. The kitchen was beautifully equipped, and we enjoyed cooking while looking out at the dreamy mountain views. The whole space felt so warm and thoughtfully designed, with skylights that filled the house with natural light on sunny days. This earth cottage has such a beautiful, grounding energy. It was the perfect base for exploring Wanaka, and we’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!
