We loved our time at Gibbston House. Mary and Terry made us feel very welcome. Their home is beautiful and in a beautiful setting. The location is convenient to vineyards, biking and hiking. In the evenings we joined the other guest for great conversation, wine and cheese

The Gibbston House was perfect! The owners/hosts, Mary & Terry were lovely and so hospitable. We truly enjoyed our stay for 4 nights. Each morning the breakfast was delicious, the afternoon snack and wine was superb and we loved chatting with Mary & Terry (hosts/owners) and also meeting all of the guests from around the world. We would highly recommend The Gibbston House B & B & Hope to return as soon as we can 🤗💕

Absolutely stunning property and service! Beautiful house on a stunning setting overlooking vineyards and the mountains. Extremely friendly hosts offering cheese platters and wine/beer in the late afternoon and amazing breakfasts each morning. They were also very knowledgeable and helpful in regards to the area and local vineyards. We were also welcomed by two very cute little dogs. Definitely recommend Gibbston House to anyone wanting a bit out luxury while exploring the area.

Peaceful retreat just outside Queenstown

Gibbston House is one of the loveliest places I’ve ever stayed. In an absolutely stunning idyllic location amongst the vineyards about 30km away from the hustle and bustle of Queenstown, hosts Mary and Terry make you feel right at home with welcome drinks and nibbles in the evening, a hearty breakfast in the morning, and lots of conversation and laughter in-between. Eleven out of ten stars!

Lovely rural environment set amongst vineyards.

As the hosts had been delayed overseas, they more than compensated by having their representative meet us upon arrival, who made us most welcome, and arranged food for our stay and showed us through our apartment, complete with a wonderful vase of sweet smelling lillies. The wine and cheese were much appreciated for supper and breakfast supplies were amply provided. Our hosts contacted us from overseas several times and upon their return. The apartment was well appointed, spotlessly clean and comfortable. Lovely rural environment set amongst vineyards. Lovely Autumn Colours.

Gibbston House a gorgeous B&B and beyond!

Mary and Terry run a fine 5 star establishment!! The house is a year old with a view of the vineyards and mountains which is magnificent!!! While hubby was at the Wanaka Air Show last weekend my labrador service dog and I were on our huge deck off a generous room with gorgeous ensuite (which included a double vanity as well as a huge tub and shower), enjoying the perfect weather and solitude of the breeze cooling us throughout the day. When I needed a break from the sun, I was able to catch up with my favorite House and Garden tv shows on the large flat screen TV. In the evening lovely restaurants were nearby in Gibbston and Arrowtown where we enjoyed sumptuous meals and wine - additionally our hosts provided wine and cheese on our private deck or in the well appointed guest lounge with mountain views as well as magnificent breakfasts in the dining area which took us through our day. We can't say enough about the excellent hospitality on offer by owners Mary and Terry Houghton and look forward to returning in the near future as Gibbston House is conveniently located only a short drive to Wanaka, and our favorite haunts of Queenstown, Arrowtown, Lake Hayes and Glenorchy!!!!

A Gem In the Mountain Vinyards

We were very lucky to get a reservation on very short notice at Gibbston House because the whole Queenstown, New Zealand area is a huge tourist attraction in the summer and everything in that city was booked solid. So finding this delightful B&B just 15 km away, situated in the middle of scenic vinyards and nestled in jagged mountains was extremely fortunate. Innkeepers Mary and Dennis are delightful people who are attentive, friendly, helpful, and they offer extremely delicious and bountiful breakfasts. Our only disappointments were (1) the quite small size of the rooms (although we were upgraded to a large room on the first of our two nights, which was very welcome!), and (b) the poor TV reception in the room... very limited number of stations and confusing remote controls. Otherwise, we highly recommend this B&B and would definitely go back!

We had one of the greatest stays at this place during our entire trip to New Zealand in 10 days. The host was wonderful in accommodating all our needs. We had a lovely breakfast with them. Rooms were big and clean. This place is located near the wineries and in the arms of mother nature. It is 5 min drive from the main highway and we did not have any problem in finding the hotel

Beautiful BnB in the heart of winery region

We had a wonderful stay at Gibbston House. Mary and Terry were excellent hosts who made us feel very welcome and were very generous with their time and hospitality. The daily breakfast was delicious, as was the evening wine and cheese hour. The BnB is an easy 25 minute drive from Queenstown and we used the location to visit some of the other local towns and wineries (highly recommended!). Our room was spacious and the views of the mountains from our balcony were stunning. If driving there, we'd recommend entering via the second Gibbston Back Rd entry (coming from Queenstown) and you can then follow the signs to 53A. Thanks again for a fantastic stay!

What an amazing place to stay - the view is unreal, and we sat on the patio with wine and cheese just soaking in the end of the day.
Our hostess was lovely and friendly and helpful when needed, but never did we feel she was in the way.
We plan to come back soon!

このホテルは、自然志向で、犬好き、レンタカー利用の方にはおすすめする、隠れ家的なB&Bです。ワイナリーが隣接する高速道路から一歩奥まった私道の中にあるホテルです。敷地も広く、たくさんの木々で囲まれていますので、本当に静かです。アジア人の宿泊は多いそうですが、日本人は、我々が初めてでした。オーナーの方が優しく控えめな方ですので、落ち着け、気さくに話せます。２匹の犬がとてもフレンドリーで癒されます。午後６時から７時の応接間でのカクテル提供では、つまみ類も充実しています（客同士の会話も盛り上がるそうです）。オーナーの方の厳選された地元のワインは美味しかったです。部屋は４室のみで、夕食は提供されません。そのため、近くのワイナリー・レストランに行くか、テイクアウト品を持ち帰り食べるか、自炊しかありません。朝食は提供されます。オーナー自慢のオムレツを美味しくいただきました。またオーナーの育てられたバラの一輪挿しが、諸所に生けられており、花や香りを楽しめました。
尚、各部屋で設備（キッチン、浴槽、ベランダなど）が異なりますので、予約前に直接確認されたほが良いです。シャワーのみで良いなら、アパートメントタイプは、自炊設備と洗濯機もありおすすめです。我々は、アパートメントタイプ（オーナーの都合もあり一泊アップグレードされた）と、浴槽のある当初予定の２階ベランダタイプ（ただし電子レンジなし）に２泊まりました。ベランダからは、敷地内の朝夕に野兎や各種の野鳥を見ることができます。我々は幸運にも、夜は快晴で、満天の星や南十字星を見れました。この地域も、テカポ湖と同様に星空はきれいだそうです。クイーンズタウンから車で30分くらいですが、ここからは、アロータウン（２０分）、ワナカ湖（１時間）、クロムウェル（２０分）、テカポ湖（３時間）にアクセスが良いです。ワイナリーも多数あり、このホテルのすぐそばに２か所あります。Mt ローザ・ワイナリーは、人気が高く人も多いです。ブレナン・ワイナリーは小家族経営ですが、過去に赤ワインのピノノワールで世界一を受賞しています（ニュージーランド航空のビジネスクラスでワイン「B２」が提供されています）。ワインのテイスティングは要予約です。我々はMtローザでテイスティング・ランチをしました（ブレナンが第一希望でしたが、イースターでお休みでした）。ほかにも高速道路添いに何件も有名なワイナリーがあります。我々は4月第一週のイースター直後に行きましたが、実際にはイースターをはさんで２週間が学校がお休みとなり、この期間は家族ずれの観光客も多かったです。４月中旬から下旬が、黄紅葉がピークとなり、見ごたえがあります。
自然で静かな環境でゆっくりしたい方で、レンタカー利用ができる方にはおすすめなホテルです。ただし、都会のホテルのようなセンスとレストランや交通アクセスなど利便性を望まれる方は、隣接する大手のワイナリー・コテージなどのほうが良いかもしれません。

Buen B&B si tienes coche

Atención excelente. B&B precioso en medio de la naturaleza. Lejos de la ciudad. 30 min de Queenstown por lo que necesitas coche para ir allí o a cualquier lado. Desayuno muy rico en \"salado\", no así en dulce que es muy límitado. Nuestra Habitación pequeña. Tuvimos que poner maleta en el suelo. Es caro pero en la zona es más o menos todo así.
