We had been recommend The Oaks by some close friends so we had high expectations on our three night stay. Check in was painless and swift, and we made our way to our studio styled hotel room. The place doesn't wind any design awards as it feels like a rabbit hole, it really has the feel of a place sold... more

Oaks Shores is an aesthetically pleasing hotel. Its reasonably new and its not too far out of central Queenstown. One big problem was the heat could not be turned down in our room and so 3 out of 5 nights we were sleep deprived. Three days of complaints proved pointless. We kept getting the same story...The concrete floor is so... more

We stayed in the Deluxe three bedroom apartment for 7 nights. The room was not the problem it was really nice fireplace, kitchen, laundry, nice bathrooms etc. However we had a few major issues with the service. We had seven people on the trip, 3 couples and a single. The room had three bedrooms each with a double bed and... more

My wife and I stayed at Oaks Shores for 7 nights and we were extremely disappointed. We booked a hotel room and soon discovered that the room we had booked was actually part of a larger apartment, separated only by a wooden door. Needless to say we could hear everything from the other room. The room itself was very basic... more

Stayed here with my partner for one night after spending 2 nights at The Rees. Very disappointed with the hotel. Waited 15 mins to be checked in. The room was really small and we could hear the guests in the room next door, quite clearly! Hotel finishings needs a bit of a revamp. Stay at The Rees rather! more

We stayed at the Oak Shores Apartments for 1 week and was truly gutted to leave. We occupied a two bedroom deluxe apartment on the 8th floor looking straight onto the Lake and the Remarkables Mountains. Our apartment consisted of a top quality kitchen with new / modern appliances. The living room had great views onto the lake with two... more

Wow, where do I begin. A luxurious spacious apartment - with the most incredible view. Location is fabulous - just far enough away to be tranquil and you can wind down with a 15min walk to and from town. IDEAL! excellent value for money. The most stunning setting on the lakefront! more

My 2 teenage kids and I stayed at the Oaks Shores Resort Queenstown for 7 nights. Having read previous reviews I attempted to upgrade from a standard apartment to a delux, but due to the busy school holiday season could only upgrade for 4 of the 7 nights, after which we had to move to the standard apartment, so I... more

We stayed in a one bed deluxe and had a view to die for. It was breath taking. The only draw back was the 15-20 min walk into town, The walk though is beautiful as it is along the lake. Our room was massive with a romantic atmosphere. Would love to stay there again. more

Stayed here during November 2008 and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. It's about a 5 - 10 minute drive away from down and about a 15 minute drive from the airport - basically an ideal base to explore Queenstown and the surrounding areas. You will need a car really to stay here and although we didn't really want to... more
