Best family holiday ever, staying on-resort at the apartments. Admittedly 55cm of fresh snow helped! The resort is so well run, with legions of helpful, friendly and happy staff who can t do enough for you, and wonderful instructors. Our 4 bed apartment was ample for 2 families, and was well appointed with everything you could need, and the onsite restaurant- Mezz has food to die for! You can t really buy any provisions at the resort so need to shop on Wanaka or Queenstown for groceries before you come- but basics are provided such as tea, coffee, hot chocolate, washing powder, dishwasher powder etc, and the apartments are serviced daily.

You wouldn t stay here for the Apres-ski but for a family it was perfect, giving us the flexibility to get out on the snow as much or little as we felt like, as well as the ability to be on the first lift every morning.
We are already planning our next trip!
