Is a holiday rental in Queenstown worth it?
A holiday apartment in Queenstown offers you the perfect combination of independence and comfort. Enjoy Impressive nature and experience Queenstown like a local – with your own retreat after an action-packed day.
Queenstown on New Zealand's South Island rightfully holds the title of Adventure Capital of the World: The city, spectacularly located on Lake Wakatipu and surrounded by the snow-capped Remarkables, is the birthplace of commercial bungee jumping and offers an unparalleled density of outdoor activities in breathtaking mountain scenery.
The Kawarau Bridge was the first commercial bungee site in the world in 1988, and since then, Queenstown has steadily expanded its offerings: jet boat rides through narrow gorges, skydiving over the lake, paragliding from Bob's Peak, canyoning, and mountain biking on top-notch trails. In winter, the surrounding mountains transform into excellent ski resorts like Coronet Peak and The Remarkables.
But Queenstown offers much more than just adrenaline: The Skyline Gondola takes you to Bob's Peak with one of the most beautiful panoramas in New Zealand. The wine region of Central Otago around the nearby town of Cromwell produces some of the best Pinot Noirs in the world. Day trips to Milford Sound, a dramatic fjord with 1,000-meter-high cliffs and waterfalls, are unforgettable. The city served as a filming location for The Lord of the Rings and offers film tourism to the iconic locations. Queenstown is appealing year-round.
What are the highlights of Queenstown?
The 'eighth wonder of the world' – a fjord with 1,000 m high cliffs, waterfalls, and dolphins. The boat trip is a must, spectacular even in the rain.
The birthplace of commercial bungee jumping – 43 m above the turquoise Kawarau River. You can also just watch.
Take the gondola to Bob's Peak for the best view over Queenstown, then ride the luge (summer toboggan) down – fun for all ages.
At the end of Lake Wakatipu lies the landscape that served as Middle-earth in 'The Lord of the Rings' – one of the most beautiful roads in New Zealand.
The southernmost wine region in the world produces world-class Pinot Noir – wineries like Amisfield and Peregrine offer tastings with mountain views.
What should I look out for when renting in Queenstown?

Is a holiday rental worth it for a longer stay?
