The Ferry Bed & Breakfast

The cutest Bed and Breakfast, with amazing hospitality from the hosts. My partner and I loved every minute, it was our favourite place we stayed during 6 weeks in New Zealand

This B&B is amazing! A beautiful historic home just across the street from a historic pedestrian bridge over the Shotover river close to Queenstown. The rooms have warm & inviting furnishings and a private bathroom. The hosts were friendly and accommodating. Every day they served a savory breakfast and even provided one to go on a day that we were traveling early for a day trip to Milford Sound. A quiet location just a hundred yards from beautiful hiking trails along the river. Our four day stay was just too short. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip to New Zealand!

During our 26 days staying at various facilities in the south island, The Ferry B&B was a standout. The breakfast was fantastic, including home-made bread and cooked-to-order items. Homemade goodies to come back to in the evenings was icing on the cake. The a**osphere was peaceful, comfortable, and welcoming. The decor respected the history of the building and area. Facilities were great; e.g. we were able to wash some clothes at no charge. The setting was picturesque. Location was great; it avoided the traffic congestion of Queenstown but everything was still just a quick drive away. Plus walking trails and a historic bridge were just out the door. The hosts have a passion for delivering good service.

Dan and Mitze have created a wonderful piece of paradise on the outskirts of Queenstown. The rooms are in great condition and the property is well cared for. There are only three rooms and Dan/Mitze live onsite. Linens were in great shape. Breakfast is a wonderful selection from their menu. There is fresh bread every morning. Eggs come from the chickens in the back yard. Dan was quite helpful in recommending that we do a River Jet Boat trip and meet them at their site, just a short drive away, rather than taking a bus from central Queenstown. Central Queenstown is just 15 minutes away. The airport is less than 10 minutes away. What a gem!

Best stay of our trip. Lovely couple, lovely homemade breakfast, lovely room! The heated blanket in the bed and heated towel rack were amazing. The helpfulness during marathon week and places to eat and park really made our week in Queenstown a dream. Would definitely return.

Idylic place to stay away from the bustle of Queenstown. Dan and Mitzi are fantastic hosts who go the extra mile to make guests feel special. We absolutely loved the four nights we stayed here it was the perfect location to unwind and take in the natural beauty of Queenstown.

We LOVED this B&B. The room was spotless and cleaned each day, little chocolates placed on our pillows daily too! We were greater warmly and offered tea and Dan gave us local recommendations for dinner that night. Outside the window in room 2 we got to watch their chickens and guinea pigs which was an unexpected highlight! I cannot tell you how much we loved watching them. Breakfast each morning was amazing, Mitzi and Dan had several options for us so we got to try a different breakfast each day. They have oat milk and regular milk which was a big plus! Fresh bread and local jams and honeys. I could go on and on about the breakfast. We were in a rush on the first morning so they had breakfast ready early for us! Getting to eat each morning with the other guests was a delight (we’re a couple in our 20s and we loved getting to talk with some of the older couples staying there!). There were homemade daily treats in the kitchen and they have the B&B set up to feel so homey. They have laundry the guests can use as well! We cannot recommend this place enough! A quick and easy drive into Queenstown and the airport, but out of town enough to avoid some of the hassle.

This bnb is a special experience. The owners Dan and Mitzi were so welcoming, friendly and full of helpful information. Our room was very comfortable and spotless. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious. Close to Airport and restaurants.

A short drive from the heart of Queenstown, the Ferry is a quaint place to stay if you want the best service. The owners are incredibly friendly and very informative, which was insightful for figuring out our plans around the area. They provide a complimentary breakfast, which is fabulous. Each of their rooms are designed beautifully, and it really felt like I was in the comfort of my own home within the first night of arriving there.
