Top neighborhoods in Queenstown

Queenstown Beach featuring a small town or village, a pebble beach and a lake or waterhole

Queenstown City Centre

Queenstown City Centre buzzes with adventure tourism booking offices, bars, and restaurants. The lakefront promenade along Lake Wakatipu offers stunning mountain views and peaceful walking paths. Adrenaline junkies book everything from bungee jumping to jet boating, while others enjoy the Queenstown Gardens or take the Skyline Gondola up to Bob's Peak for panoramic alpine vistas. The compact downtown is easily walkable with most attractions just minutes apart. From backpacker cafes to fine dining spots serving local lamb and seafood, the food scene caters to all budgets. Hotels range from luxury lodges to hostels, with most offering those picture-perfect mountain or lake views everyone comes for.

Queenstown featuring a sunset, a river or creek and mountains

Fernhill

Perched on the hillside above Queenstown, Fernhill offers travelers a peaceful retreat with breathtaking views of Lake Wakatipu and surrounding mountains. Winding roads lead to modern holiday homes nestled among native bush, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame postcard-perfect panoramas. Walking trails start right from your doorstep, connecting you to the popular Ben Lomond Track for more adventurous hikes. You'll need to venture into downtown Queenstown for dining and shopping, just a short drive down the hill. Most accommodations feature upscale vacation rentals with gourmet kitchens and premium amenities like private hot tubs. The steep terrain means having a car is your best bet for getting around.

Frankton featuring a small town or village, forests and mountains

Frankton

Frankton blends lakeside charm with airport-adjacent convenience for travelers coming to Queenstown. Biking trails hug the shoreline of Lake Wakatipu, where you can dip your toes at Frankton Beach or snap jaw-dropping mountain photos. Remarkables Park Town Centre offers retail therapy when you need a break from all that gorgeous scenery. The neighborhood serves up family-friendly dining without the downtown prices. Motels and budget hotels near the airport make great home bases for exploring the region. With Queenstown Airport and a major bus interchange right here, you're perfectly positioned to zip around the South Island.

Sunshine Bay featuring forests, mountains and a small town or village

Sunshine Bay

Sunshine Bay serves up stunning views of Lake Wakatipu with the dramatic Remarkables mountain range as your backdrop. This peaceful neighborhood offers a sweet escape from Queenstown's buzz while keeping you close enough for convenience. The lakefront walking path delivers postcard-worthy scenes at every turn, and the small beach area welcomes swimmers brave enough to dip into the crystal-clear alpine waters. Most visitors stay in vacation rentals with jaw-dropping views and self-catering kitchens. You'll need wheels to reach Queenstown's restaurants and shops just 10-15 minutes away. The neighborhood's charm lies in its quiet residential vibe and natural beauty rather than tourist attractions or nightlife.

Goldfield Heights

Goldfield Heights offers a serene escape with spectacular views of Lake Wakatipu and surrounding mountains. The residential neighborhood connects to the popular Queenstown Hill Time Walk, where native beech forests and alpine trails reward hikers with panoramic vistas. This upscale retreat feels worlds away from downtown bustle yet sits just a 15-minute stroll from Queenstown's attractions. Luxury vacation rentals with floor-to-ceiling windows dominate the accommodation scene here. While you won't find restaurants or shops within the neighborhood, downtown Queenstown's dining and retail options are easily accessible by car or rideshare. The steep terrain means a car is handy but not essential for travelers who enjoy scenic walks.

We had a prior stay in town for 6 days/5 nights with daughter, her husband, two very young children and enjoyed a lovely family holiday. Mainly sunny if chilly weather, lovely gardens and exciting gondola trip to the viewpoint over the town and sea.
