What's the best ski resort close to Queenstown?

Question

I know there's a few - which one would you recommend?

Answer 1

I would try Remarkables Lodge

www.remarkables.co.nz



A former farm homestead that dates back to the 1860s, this Southern Hemisphere getaway features a contemporary, streamlined style that would make Frank Lloyd Wright proud.

Hospitality is warm, casual and distinctly Kiwi (this is the sort of place where you while away the time playing billiards and sipping local wines), and the setting is great. The lodge sits in the foothills of the Remarkables mountain range and is within easy driving distance of Cardrona, Treble Cone and Coronet Peak. The latter features night skiing on weekends—hit floodlit slopes under the stars with beautiful views of Queenstown.

If you need equipment, you can be fitted right at the lodge. And you can enjoy heli-skiing from the lodge’s own helipad.
