The Cottages at Lake Hayes offer luxury lakefront accommodation on the shores of Lake Hayes, Queenstown, one of New Zealand’s most iconic settings, and close to all of the outdoor activities, with ski fields, golf courses and vineyards on your doorstep, and only 10 minutes from bustling Queenstown and historic Arrowtown for world class shops, bars and restaurants. The Cottages were launched in 2020 and the stunning views, luxurious interiors, a curated art collection and exquisite attention to detail have already welcomed back many returning guests. Each of the 5 cottages sleep up to 4 adults with 2 en-suite bedrooms with private hot tubs on a terraced lawn, a fully-equipped kitchen, dining, bar, and lounge with wood-burner.
