“Amazing stay!”

Being on the mountain after 4pm is a totally different experience…We had some great fun sledging and snowball fighting with a couple of the other families staying there. 

Sarah in the accommodation team went above and beyond to help us manage check-in and check-out, while we juggled our 2 year olds nap times!

Frequently
Asked Questions

Our apartments are equipped for self-catering in the evenings, so we recommend pre-purchasing groceries in Wānaka or Queenstown before heading up the mountain. We are a landfill-free mountain – although we do offer limited landfill bins in the apartments, we ask our guests to please be conscious of the groceries they bring to Cardrona and the associated packaging.

On Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings, we have rotating à la carte dine-in options at one of our on-mountain restaurants.

Our apartments have the capability to change in configuration, with beds that unzip & fold out couches etc., so if you need help making sure your whole family will fit (with no arguments!) then give us a call or an email!

Our apartments are located up at least two flights of stairs and do not have wheelchair access.
