The hotel was previously known as Oaks Shores Resort, but has been entirely transformed. With its lakefront location, the property provides a sleek, modern aesthetic capped off with spectacular views and a cozy vibe appropriate for a ski stay. Public spaces include a fitness center; spa; and dining venues, including Six to Midnight, which offers all-day dining, breakfast, high tea and après-ski moments.

“Avani Queenstown introduces a premium lifestyle offering to one of New Zealand’s most dynamic tourism destinations. Combining a standout lakefront location with Avani’s design-led approach, the hotel delivers a contemporary guest experience that reflects how travelers increasingly want to stay, connect and experience a destination,” described Craig Hooley, chief operating officer, Minor Hotels Australasia.
