The pictures don’t do justice to the views from this property. We all just wanted to sit in the window all day! I took hundreds of pictures because I couldn’t get enough.
The place was spacious and we really enjoyed our time as a family of nine here! Our stay here just added to the magic of our visit to Queenstown!

Pictures actually don’t do this place justice, I expected views and a comfortable place, but in reality views are spectacular. From the kitchen, the bedrooms and especially the outdoor spa. It’s such a great escape place for a bunch of friends or two families. Highly recommend!

The property itself is older and needs some work. The heating could have been a little better, the fireplace unfortunately smoked the house out, but the views and location made up for it tenfold. Will definitely book again, its perfect for bigger groups.

Amazing views and close to town with a good local shop and chip shop at the end of the road. Older property internally but clean and looked after.

Fantastic property in a brilliant location. Views were unobstructed and and absolutely incredible. Property is a little older, but photos are a true depiction of what to expect. We were two families staying for a week and we were very comfortable with plenty of space in the middle of winter. So quiet and easy to get around. Would highly recommend and would love to go back!

Very nice spot . The view is unbeatable. Only coment would be the need for some maintenance.... toilet roll holders loose .... bathrooms are due for an update. Otherwise would be very happy to stay here again . Management was great and when we needed help Billy was our hero.

We stayed here with friends and family. The house has the most amazing views and is very comfortable. Whilst aspects of the home may be a little tired the location and amenities far outweigh this.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful property, with stunning views over the lake. Our one small gripe was the way they handle rubbish during your stay. While the conditions of stay clearly outline how rubbish is handled, it is a hassle and this needs to made easier for the guest.

Stay at Ibon House
Ibon house was a great spot for a group of 9 friends to stay for a few nights. Location was amazing and views were to die for. Everything you needed was available and there were tons of places to spread out. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return if back in Queenstown.
A little bit of TLC would up this from a 4.5 star rating to a 5.

You feel peace and tranquility looking out the windows. There is heaps of space, our 2 families fitted comfortably. Its unfortunate that the property is not being maintained. The Bathrooms are run down and poorly presented. The beds were hard and uncomfortable. The linen was worn, lumpy and stained. There were no additional linens, blankets or pillows. There wasn't even a plug for the kitchen sink or fireplace tools.

The house itself is nicely laid out and comfortable. Our family of 10 stayed a week and had a great time. We especially liked that the tables, both inside and outside, comfortably seat 10. Our weather wasn't great, but the outside patio is large and we would have used it a lot in warmer weather. The walk to town takes about 35 minutes and is pretty, but we were not game for walking back up the hill to get home. We had cars and there are taxis in town, and apparently a bus that gets close to the house. Being up the hill is the price you pay for the beautiful view, and it is totally worth it! Little maintenance things keep me from giving a fully fabulous review. Some lights weren't working, the dishwasher is temperamental, the Internet was annoyingly slow, and there were other things, all of which would have been easily fixed with an hour or two of a handyman's time. (I wrote to Goodstays about this, and hopefully they'll fix things before the next guests arrive.)

The Bach is huge and comfortable. Ample room for 10. Unparalleled views from the whole house. Convenient to town though not via foot. Slightly disappointing that the spa had to be hired on top of the Bach, but the hire was easy and recommended.

Rating Details:The property manager was adequately helpful.The vacation rental was very clean.I was very happy with the location.I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental.Overall, I recommend this vacation rental.Reviewer Comments:This property has the most astounding views. Perched high on a mountain side, it presented us with 180 degree views over the lake and Queenstown. The windows have been positioned to maximise the scenery from every room upstairs and downstairs. The house was generally clean and well presented however there were some aspects worth mentioning: 1. The toilet paper holders in all the toilets were coming off the wall and there was insufficient toilet paper provided for 9 guests 2. There were no dishwashing tablets which should have been provided 3. The sinkerator did not work 4. Some power outlets did not work 5. The fridge size was too small to hold food and drink for 9 people and a small bar fridge would have been useful 6. Oven door does not close properly and food took twice as long to cook 6. Shorter stem wine glasses would have fitted in the dishwasher 7. Several doors have squeaking hinges 8. We needed to top up the "S" bend in the upstairs hot water cylinder overflow which then stopped the sewer smells in the upper bedroom. 9. Hopefully you regularly change the code for the 'key safe' otherwise the system is only as secure as the honesty of the previous renters. 10. The utensil hanging block over the mobile food prep bench was a hazard for taller people and served no real purpose. Could be removed and stored in garage. 11. Understand the trend is now to make up beds with bottom and top sheet, doona without doona cover and another sheet on top. This looks like an untidy short cut and an effort to avoid having to do laundry. It does not give the renters the impression of a neat and tidy, well thought out bedroom.

Manager Glenn not helpful very slow to get back with queries. No rubbishy bins only 2 plastic garbage bags for whole stay period for 10 people. Got charged for taking rubbishy away . Useless old kitchen pans that should be thrown out. Oven door doesn't seal , fridge far too small & no cleaning cloths or spray . Had to buy Cleaning kitchen bathroom spray & cloths . Very poorly managed as many guest book reviews have said same as me . Someone has to do something for expensive house with sub standard equipment.

We had 3 generations of my family (1 son, 1 daughter, their spouses and kids) and all were comfortably housed. Someone needs to take better care of plants in pots on the rear terrace and to supply more waste paper baskets, but when you consider the view and the convenience to regional wonders it was very good indeed. We enjoyed cooking and eating together during the long light of evening looking at the spectacular view.
