“Now, this review is based on picking up race bags for the Queenstown Marathon (I'm fat and tired and did the 10km, don't judge but it's quicker to the pub and every time I do a Half Marathon I can't walk right for a few days!) Anyway, place us nice, has all the amenities and will be a lot better when eventually the finish the Francton roundabout!”

“Love the rock climbing gym! Rhys was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, helpful and informative, helping me and my group to feel safer and smarter about climbing. Rhys provided a phenomenal experience that I would recommend to anybody at any level of climbing. Hope to see him here for years and years to come!”

“The staff are always lovely and helpful, with many activities happening, involved with the community, clean pools and good gym facilities. Would love them to be open earlier / later for the gym, but overall still very happy with my local đŸ’Ē”
