Love the property in fact stayed there 2 years ago. Outlook over lake and mountains exquisite. Walking distance to town centre and free parking. Reception allowed us to park our car at reception after checkout, as our flights were later in the day. .The receptionists were very polite and cordial a credit to the establishment.

Apartment was spacious, with amazing views. Decor a little outdated but in good condition. No real parking except at motel next door so you have to carry your bags in. The parking is free however. Staff very helpful and excellent communication.

Two bedroom with kitchenette and ocean view. Older, not updated and wouldn't say well maintained - only adequately clean. Carpet old and believe it was that which smelled. I think. My husband and son fixed multiple things in the unit over the week. eg. Non-flushing toilet, closet door not opening / closing, drain on balcony clogged which with the amt of rain was a concern... We came in for ski vacation, rental SUV didn't fit in parkade so had to park down the street whole trip. Extra Parking was usually busy / tight as sharing with the motel, but they let us park there. Place is well located, so probably why priced how it was. We might stay again, but I would probably look around a bit for the price to be sure before I booked again. In my mind, I was paying a bit more for the lake / mountain views (outstanding), as I hung out a lot while the rest skied.

The car parking was tricky. Very narrow driveway. But once we parked things got better. I was on crutches so the stairs were a challenge. The bed were comfy and the apartment was clean. The views were the best part.

Booked two bedroom for 4 while another friend booked the same type of accommodation at the same time. My booking cost more but when we checked in we were told you’ve got the same type, “but you’re this way and you’re that way”. Our room was so small, dated, old, smelled funny and cold when we got in. My mates room was way bigger, new, second floor views and heated already. Not real happy and even my mate felt he gave us the wrong rooms….too late. Ripped off in the end.

Great location on the flat, no hills to climb and only a short stroll from town, no issues walking home late at night as a family or lone female. Good lake view and very spacious accommodation with all amenities. Drove past the other hotels and apartments we had initially considered and at $50-100 per night's difference in price, the extra spend was more than worth it, would definitely stay here again.

2/10 Poor

We did not stay at Lakefront Apartments! We were not contacted until we arrived in New Zealand that we had been bumped to their sister accommodation - The Lofts! Communication was disgusting and although the people at the Lofts were helpful - the apartment had a leaking roof, no cutlery to chop or slice vegetables, no plug for the kitchen sink. On the last night we had no power due to the road works this was not told to us until we went to find out why we had no power!! Would not recommend ever! Why were we not at the lakefront apartments when our booking was made 8months previous?????
