About this apartment rental
REMARKABLES RETREAT 1 PROPERTY SUMMARY:
Remarkables Retreat 1 is your perfect alpine getaway. With a tranquil outlook over the Lake Wakatipu and Frankton walking track, its location in the Remarkables Retreat hamlet is near the heart of town.
ACCOMMODATION DETAILS:
Hovering above the waterfront of Lake Wakatipu, you will find this delightful apartment. Comfortable and convenient, this is the ideal lock up and go property – no unnecessary stress on your trip. With stunning vistas and access to nearby walking trails, this home is a real gem. Large group? We also manage other Remarkables Retreat properties – ask the Goodstays Reservations Team.
This jewel maximises space with an entire open plan upstairs with dining table, lounge and kitchen, all with the stunning backdrop of the lake and surrounding mountains. Its décor is clean and contemporary, with furnishings that hark back to the rangy, mountainous landscape outside. Cook your meals in the well-equipped and modern kitchen and linger over your meal at the classic dining table. Spread out in the spacious lounge area and enjoy a DVD on the flat-screen television and free WIFI.
Wake up, step outside and walk around the lake (and around to the Marina for breakfast if you choose) on the Frankton walking track that runs right past Remarkables Retreat. There’s also outdoor furniture for soaking up the sun or pre-dinner drinks on the balcony.

We totaly enjoyed our stay, great location and and spacious house, the only down side was some minor maintenance was needed,we reported it the day we entered but no one bothered to get back to us at all or fixed them thru out our stay.

this was such a great place for a weekend get away with friends

The property was nice and good location however the kitchen crockery had quite a few chips on the plates and cups. The kitchen cookware was small when the property caters to sleep 11. The wifi would not hook up easily and in the end only had 2 devices able to get connected. The set of drawers in 2 of the bedrooms were broken. The dryer did not work great. The glass top coffee table was not secured on making it a little hazardous with children. The rubbish situation was strange as there was wheelie bins at the front door but not able to use and had to remove own rubbish and take recycles to recycle centre, when staying for a week with 9 people would have thought would be able to put rubbish in the bins. The property overall was not as clean as would have expected, blinds and windows dirty. Beware when booking through a third party as they add on quite a percentage to the rate.

Stunning views and location is great. Access to the property is good. However heater in the master bedroom does not work and cold gets into the gaps of the window. Wifi does not work at the bottom bedrooms. Overall great

Mesmerising view of the Frankton Arm of Lake Wakatipu and Remarkable Peaks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the property. Being an enthusiast landscaper and a man with deep aesthetic sense, I would prefer a different layout of couches in the lounge as the current one obscure the million dollar view. Some of the cooking pans need a replacement as some has burnt skin and stick/burn food immediately after you start cooking even at slow heat. Overall, a great place to stay. Very close to the towns (Frankton and Queenstown). Has access to the Frankton bike/walking trail from the lower portion.

It was a great holiday in a lovely house.
It would have been nice to have some tea and coffee available and some larger pans to cook for our number of 9 and since the house can accommodate 11.

The Remarkables Retreat property suited our family group of 9 very well. It is in a lovely location on the lake and it was great having a whole home to make ourselves comfortable in.

Unit was nice and warm when we arrived on a cold winter afternoon. Full kitchen, two bathrooms and three toilets, along with four bedrooms meant no hassle for our group of four. Driveway can get really frosty this time of year though and we had to leave the car up top on one of the nights. $20 taxi ride into town which is pretty good. Beds were really comfy too and plenty of heating. Good water pressure in the shower and a spa bath in the master ensuite. Good value.
