The property itself was lovely, tranquil, and romantic. Rooms were super clean and comfy. The food at the lodge restaurant was excellent. The staff members (all of them) were truly exceptional. Welcoming, kind, and thoughtful people. The evening wine tasting was superb. Our host was engaging and very knowledgeable about all of the wines from the region. She made us feel welcome.

Stoneridge Estate is my favourite accomodation I've ever stayed in. The rooms and facilities were amazing. Being out at Lake Hayes and away from the hustle and bustle of Queenstown was so relaxing. Wineries, Arrowtown, Ayrburn, Frankton Arm are all a quick drive away. The hot tub was great and the wine/cheeseboard each evening was a lovely addition. My partner and I enjoyed simply walking around the estate and looking at all the beautiful autumn colours. And the breakfast and coffee each morning was fantastic!

It is apparent as soon as you arrive that the owners want guests to have a good experience. Our unit was spacious, modern and clean. The outside area is well maintained, John loves to mow the lawn. He was considerate in mowing away from us while we were on a call. We enjoyed using the bikes and spa.

I feel like I lucked out with this place. Everything is new and well-designed, and I had a great view overlooking the town to the lake beyond. The huge picture window facing the lake brought in a ton of natural light. Good, fast WiFi too, which was helpful when I had to do a bit of work. Easily one of the best sleeps I had during my month on the South Island.

All 5-star hotels in Queenstown

Looking for a 5-star hotel?

When the accommodations are just as important as the destination, a 5-star stay promises that extra "wow" factor the second you step into the lobby. Along with the kind of service fit for royalty, you can get pampered at on-site spas, enjoy gourmet restaurants, and sleep in top-of-the-line beds you'll never want to climb out of.
