Matakauri House

Overview

Tucked away in the exclusive Aspen Grove neighbourhood above Lake Wakatipu, Matakauri House offers a truly special Queenstown experience. This private luxury villa is ideal for those seeking space, seclusion, and spectacular views. From the moment you step inside, dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows frame the Remarkables mountain range and the shimmering lake below. The interiors are contemporary yet warm, with two spacious living and dining areas, each centred around a roaring open fireplace – perfect for après-ski evenings or relaxed family gatherings. A gourmet kitchen, fully equipped with high-end appliances, flows effortlessly into a sun-drenched lounge, while a separate media room with a stylish wet bar provides the perfect retreat for movie nights or cocktail evenings.

Outdoors, the large deck and entertaining area take full advantage of the sweeping alpine views. A walled garden with a schist fireplace and built-in BBQ provides an idyllic year-round setting, while the lounge seating and daybed invite you to unwind and soak up the scenery. Below, a private plunge pool – heated year-round – offers the ultimate space to relax in complete privacy. The villa comfortably sleeps up to eight guests across four generous double bedrooms, each with its own luxurious ensuite. Curated artwork and thoughtful touches throughout elevate the experience, creating a sense of both comfort and style. Located just minutes from Queenstown’s world-class dining, adventure activities, and iconic Central Otago landscapes, Matakauri House is a haven of luxury. Minimum stay is 3 nights.

PLEASE NOTE: This home is available with either a 4-bedroom or 3-bedroom configuration. When booking as a 3-bedroom home (suitable for up to 6 guests), the lower level bedroom, bathroom and living area would be closed off to offer a discounted rate. This would exclude the bedroom and bathroom pictured with the lavender visible outside, and the lounge area with the gas fireplace built into the black wooden panel wall.

Matakauri House uses Minut technology to monitor excessive noise and gatherings. The property has fans for cooling but is not equipped with air conditioning.
