Winter in New Zealand’s favourite ski resorts – Queenstown and Wanaka

The crisp beautiful days we experienced in Autumn have got us ready and excited for a fun filled, action packed snowy winter in Queenstown, Arrowtown and Wanaka.

We love our winter wonderland! The days are shorter, skies are blue (well except for the days when they are steely grey and dumping beautiful snow) and we spend our evenings by crackling fires with a warming glass of pinot noir and a wonderful slow cooked dinner. The perfect end to a busy day spent with friends or family.

Skis and snowboards are waxed and ready to go, the ski fields are snow covered and beckoning and our team of knowledgeable and attentive concierges are waiting to welcome you to your holiday villa … your winter holiday is about to start.

Our folio of fabulous holiday houses is the ideal choice for your winter break to spend with family or friends. Lots of space, chef’s kitchens, many have outdoor spa pools, warm, cosy fires and they are ideally located to enjoy the fun and frivolity of the buzzing winter atmosphere in the ski resorts of Queenstown, Arrowtown and Wanaka.

Staying in one of our rental villas will have you in such easy proximity to the skifields – Coronet Peak, The Remarkables, Cardrona, Treble Cone and Snow Farm. You are also at the home of heliskiing and your holiday is made even more memorable by including this exciting experience. Heliskiing is available for intermediate to advanced skiers and will take you to pristine areas of untouched snow.

There may be days when you do not feel like hitting the slopes for skiing and our team can create other winter experiences to immerse you in places and people not normally accessible. Ice driving in an Audi, dog sledding at night on the snow, snow mobiles or cross country skiing are examples of the many activities available during your vacation.

We love:

• In house ski/snowboard fittings – all your ski/snowboard gear is brought to your villa and fitted whilst you relax by the fire.
• Pre-prepared meals – arrive to a gourmet dinner just waiting to be heated and you serve at your leisure
• In house massage – come home to a deep tissue or relaxation massage after a busy day of activity
• In house chef – indulge with our chef cooking a three course (or degustation) dinner in the comfort of your villa … and cleaning up afterwards.
