WHERE TO DRINK When the sun is out, and the sky is clear head to The Sundeck. You’ll find it up two flights of stairs - a short workout before settling in to savour world-class wines with views of Queenstown best described as stunning. Stemming from the town’s reputation the world over, Queenstown is filled with travellers and backpackers. Ergo, awesome nightlife, which if you’re looking to head out into the early hours is excellent. Head for Searle Lane where live music, clubs and bars collide. As the name suggests, Havana is great for rum cocktails and Cuban beats while those seeking a performance or pool will enjoy Zephyr. WHAT TO DO That you will overindulge on your vacation is a most likely. Counteracting that with outdoor activity however, is easily possible. Fun fact - walks around Lake Wakatipu and through the Queenstown gardens will help ease the guilt on your consumption. Those looking to hit the green can book in and tee off at the Queenstown Golf Club (amazing views and affordable entry), while players seeking a glamorous backdrop can choose Jack’s Point Golf Club. Reckless and daredevil behaviour is rewarded in Queenstown. There’s the famous AJ Hackett Bungy – either the Ledge Bungy overlooking Queenstown or the Kawarau Bungy. Those still thrill seeking, but in a slightly less bold manner might enjoy taking the gondola to Bob’s Peak followed by a luge ride down. Want to get wet? The Shotover Jet definitely gets the blood pumping, without having to jump off the side of a cliff. WHERE TO SLEEP Airbnb is a top choice, with many gorgeous houses and apartments available that can prove to be really cost effective for groups and families. Seeking luxury? Resting your head on the divine and highly threaded count sheets at Hotel St Moritz comes well recommended. KAWARU BUNGY IN QUEENSTOWN THE SHOTOVER JET Pindara Magazine 78 2017
