This post is so late, but better late than never right?! We actually got back home from Queenstown almost a month ago, and I only just finished unpacking the last of the bits and bobs in my suitcase today. Oops. We had such a fantastic time, and I'm excited to share some of the photos from my 21st Birthday trip to Queenstown! We flew out the day before my birthday and direct from Wellington to Queenstown. It was perfect not having to connect to a different flight, and being able to sit back and enjoy the flight.
We stayed at the beautiful Heritage Queenstown, not only where the grounds pretty but our lakeview suite provided uninterrupted views of Lake Wakatipu. I've wanted to stay at a Heritage hotel since we were in Hanmer Springs a couple of years back, so what better excuse than for your birthday escape. It was worth every penny to get a Lakeview 2 Bedroom Suite!
I'd wanted to visit Queenstown for a while now, so that's how I settled on choosing where to go for my 21th birthday. I'm not a huge partying / clubbing girl, but there's no doubt I love a drink with the ones I love, so I would much rather travel and explore the world than waste it on getting drunk and waking up feeling horrible the next day.
All the blossom was out throughout the hotel grounds and the town. The little park in the middle of town was full of the most beautiful blossom trees which was perfect to sit and sip of an iced caramel macchiato after a day of exploring.
I have way too many photos to share in one post so I've tried to keep this post brief on the text front and show the beauty of Queenstown. Make sure to keep an eye out for my next posts, as there will probably be a handful more!
