Fabulous tucked away property right in the city center where you can walk to anything at all needed. It offers private and easy parking. We loved that we could conveniently launder our clothes as well . It was a friendly and easy check in and out with a smile along with a small bottle of milk for our coffee. Thanks!

A little disappointed that we were charged for three people when we had informed that we were only two. Other than that it was nice.

There was nothing not to like. Everything worked well and was very comfortable. And the shower was the best I’ve had in ages, it’s better than my one at home. Now I have shower envy…

This is a sweet property and just at the edge of the Main Street. Walking trails are a couple of minutes away. It is a lovely small community to stay in. Busy on the weekends but quiet in the week.

We stayed in Number 11. It was a beautiful, small apartment, and was very well appointed. It was super clean and the kitchenette is a handy feature, even if the fridge was pretty noisy. There's plenty of space for luggage as there's a massive walk in wardrobe. The bathroom was very spacious and modern. The owner is very friendly and is a super host. Would definitely love to stay here again! Shades is within a few minutes walk of the picturesque Arrowtown High St. but the accommodation itself is very quiet and relaxing, it's set in lovely gardens. Recommend
