Good property with excellent views of the lake,very close to town centre

Sri United Kingdom

Clean, large & modern. Great view from balcony

Michael New Zealand

Located about 10 mins from center of town on a ridge besides the lake (and hence with better views of the lake and mountains than from the lake shore). It is roomy and very well furnished.

Rrjini United States of America

The apartment was spotlessly clean, Incredibly well equipped, modern, perfectly located and to be heat we couldn’t have asked for better. We loved it and would recommend to anyone.

Michaela Ireland

Only a seven minute walk into town, albeit up a steep hill. Stunning views

Anonymous United Kingdom

This property was well setup for the traveling family. Truly a pleasure. We could see great care in setting up each detail to ensure the property and its assets were cared for. Down to the small details such as bedside cup mats to ensure drinks did not burn furniture. We really made sure we took care of this lovely apartment . Thank you so much for having us.

Staff very accommodating and the view, oh the view :)

The facilities were good at this property but we really paid for the amazing view. That was worth a million bucks. We were so conveniently located close to everything also that we grew confident commuting around the town whenever we felt like it then escaping the business to our comfy little home for the time we were there.

    Kia Ora, We have bookings in both of our front row apartments starting on the 6th July that have been in our system since the 7th November therefore we do not have availability for those dates I am afraid. Please let us know if we can assist with a slightly shorter stay or bookings in our standard lakeview apartments. Kind regards The Team at Staysouth
