About this property

Apt12 Lakefront Apartments

Summary

Central apartment in a premium lakefront location just a 5 minute stroll along the waterfront to the heart of downtown Queenstown.

The open plan lounge & dining area open out on to a balcony with a table & 2 chairs and great views of Lake Wakatipu and surrounding mountains. What a great spot to sit and enjoy the view while eating your breakfast in the morning or when you get back from a day exploring.

Interaction

Someone from The Butler is just a phone call away.

Neighborhood

The Lakefront Apartments (previously known as St Omer Court) are in a prime location on Lake Esplanade just a short stroll along the lakefront to the Steamer Wharf and downtown Queenstown.

The apartment is just far enough from town to be quite at night but still less than 5 minutes flat walk to over 100 bars and restaurants. Walk time depends on how many times you stop for photos.

The apartment is part of a complex - please be respectful of your neighbours.

Access

We will send you detailed directions and lockbox codes 3 - 5 days prior to your arrival.
You have full access to the apartment except for 2 locked cupboards.

Parking Space : 1 x designated carpark in building
The undercover carpark has a 2m height restriction

Space

Unlike other apartments of its size Apt 12 has a full kitchen with a free standing stove, fridge, microwave and a dishwasher. We do not have a coffee machine but there is a plunger there so you can still get your coffee fix in the mornings.

The apartment has 2 bedrooms both downstairs. One bedroom has a Queen bed and views, the 2nd bedroom has a Queen bed and single bed - it does not have a view. There is one bathroom downstairs with a shower over the bath, a basin & toilet. Upstairs there is a toilet in the laundry. Free Wifi. Free undercover parking.

As the apartment does have stairs between the living area and bedrooms we do have a stair gate if required.

Please see note regarding parking restrictions.

Bedroom 1 downstairs - has a queen bed, wardrobe, room for suitcases and a small balcony with a view
Bedroom 2 downstairs - has a queen bed and a single bed in it, there is a wardrobe. This room does not have a view.

Full Kitchen
Dining & lounge area with balcony

Transit

A car is not required if unless you wish to go exploring. However if you do have a car we do have parking for 1 standard size vehicle with no roof racks. Vehicles bigger than this or additional vehicles will need to find available street parking - this can be difficult during busy periods.
5 minutes flat walk along the lakefront (about 400m)
Distance from airport 8.3km (approx 15 minutes) - Taxi's & Airport shuttles available at the airport.
You can also catch the Fernhill bus to the Rydges Hotel then walk back towards town about 120m - the bus takes approx 25 minutes

Notes

There is one carpark available for our guests use. It will fit a standard size car or SUV but there is a height restriction of 2 metres going into the undercover carpark so you cannot have a roof rack on your vehicle. Please ensure you only park in our designated carpark - it is clearly market #12.

The property does have a lot of stairs so not suitable for people with mobility issues - we have a stair gate available on request (free of charge) - please let us know if you will need this.

Well placed and close to town.

Well placed, waking distance to town centre and walks. Rowdy tenants in other apartments after hours. Tight but off street parking. Apartment was mostly clean except the fridge and oven. The view over the lake was okay but not what was in the advertising as view lastly blocked by other building. Well equipped and air flow not the best sure to design. Hot water did not last long enough for for people. Smoke Allen kept going off when clothes dryer was used. The booking agency was awesome and ready to contact, very polite and accommodatiing. Overall enjoyed the stay and served us proposed however not the best value for money other than position.
Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022
