An incredible setting, with unparalleled views of Lake Whakatipu and The Remarkables, Crystal Waters is a brand new property conveniently located within suburban Queenstown, but away from it all. Our suites contain upscale rustic interiors, wood burners, full kitchens, and floor to ceiling windows to enjoy uninterrupted panoramic views from every room.
Whether it be a mountain adventure or a romantic getaway, our suites are the perfect spot for treasured memories.
Please note that this is a brand new property and we have four suites available.
The four suites are identical with the same layout, furnishings, and wide floor to ceiling glass to capture the amazing views of Lake Whakatipu and the Remarkables. The suites are aligned along a hillside and the only noticeable difference between the suites is the contour of the hillside below. Each suite is completely private and the other suites cannot be seen from within each individual suite.
If this suite is not available for the time period you are after, please message and we can help arrange a booking for you.
Uninterrupted Views
Our suites have been designed to maximize the spectacular mountain and lake views. Whether you are cozied around the wood burner, dining over a home cooked meal, or resting in bed, you will be amazed by the unmatched natural beauty.
Elevated Spa Pools
Relax in our stainless, cedar spa pools (hot tubs) and take in the expansive views up and down Lake Whakatipu, capturing views of the Remarkables, Cecil Peak and Walter Peak. Please note: The spa pools are available for use whenever you choose to use them. They do not need to be booked out. We find that they are rarely in use at the same time, so you are likely to have a spa to yourself when desired.
Comfortable, Considered Spaces
Unwind and cozy up after a busy day exploring in front of the wood burner or login into your account and watch your favorite shows from our fifty inch Smart TV.
Indoor Outdoor Flow
Slide open the floor to ceiling glass doors and dine in the fresh mountain air, while the sun sets over Lake Whakatipu.
Balcony Sunrise
