Located a leisurely 10 minute walk from the bustling heart of Queenstown, the Pounamu Apartments are ideal for a short or long term stay and perfectly situated to enjoy all that this stunning alpine region has to offer.

I found these luxury apartments striking in architectural style, their clever design providing unique flexibility in accommodation options. Beautifully furnished with designer fittings and upmarket furniture, the Executive Suites are a home away from home with fully equipped modern kitchen and large living area, complete with gas fireplace. The floor to ceiling bi-fold windows frame a breathtaking panoramic view of the lakes and surrounding mountains. Car parks and ski storage lockers are an added convenience.

Onsite managers Priscilla and Leo are charming, very helpful and informative. I must note that I was impressed with the level of eco-care imbued throughout the facilities and operations.

Upon arrival my original plan for an evening out in Queenstown quickly changed. I simply could not pull myself away from that spectacular view, with the sun setting on the mountains and the cosiness of the fireplace; I opted to stay in and enjoy the ambience and amenities provided.

Winter or summer, Queenstown is the adventure capital of the world and what better place to return after a full day's activities than to the luxurious, modern convenience at Pounamu Apartments.
