About this property

Opuke Crash Pad, enjoy Resort Facilities, Opuke Hot Pools, Ski Field.

Your family will be close to everything when you stay at this centrally located resort.
A comfortable, self-contained, upstair, two bedroom apartment with mountain views within the Resort Village.
The resort has a spa pool (10.00 am to 8.00 pm, sorry no BYO drinks) & a restaurant that operates during the winter season, plus a tennis court, BBQ`s and children play area.
We are independent of the resort business so can offer what we believe is a better, different service with the same facilities.

Unit 48B is an upstairs 2 bedroom apartment with small balcony that looks out over the resort restaurant and also has mountain views.
With a queen bedroom plus a two single bed bedroom, good sized living area with full kitchen, TV dining area it`s all there to make your stay very comfortable.
Remember we are not part of the resort reception so they are unlikely to be able to help with most inquiries. Just send me a message and I`ll assist with anything I can.

Access to Opuke Crash Pad (48B) is via a staircase (15 steps) that services this apartment plus an adjoining Studio apartment (48A). Between the 2 apartments is a small foyer area with the shared laundry adjacent to this.
Guests also have access to all the resort facilities.

We live close by and are available should we be required.
Please contact Selwyn if you need any help or information, we have been told to not approach the onsite management or staff.

Little chocolates on the towels were really cute. Most places dont do them now so was a nice surprise. Clean and tidy when we arrived and the book they put together was really helpful. Only downside was the speaker in the tv sounds like it is going. Will definitely be booking again in the future.
