Situated on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, with views of the lake and Remarkables mountain range, this hostel features a fully equipped shared kitchen and a drying room for ski equipment.
This is a hostel for those looking for extremely cheap accommodations while still staying relatively central. We stayed here for a few nights and noticed that most staying here were long-stay workers.
Jucy Snooze has become a big franchise in New Zealand, and all of their properties including this one is a really solid hybrid mix of hostel rooms and private bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms.
If you’ve never been to NZ, you’re probably not familiar with Holiday Parks but these are often gems for those on a budget because they’re RV parks but offer cabins as well.
It’s not located in the city itself, so a car is necessary, but the views here are amazing and it has incredible shared spaces and very clean shared bathrooms. Awesome alternative guesthouse.
This is a standard New Zealand holiday park built for campervans, RVs, and campers, but they also have these amazing private lodges that are fully equipped with kitchens and either a view of the mountains or Lake Wakatipu.
