⭐ Internship Spotlight: Chloe at Rosewood Matakauri ⭐

Hospitality Management student Chloe is currently completing her internship at Rosewood Matakauri in Queenstown, working as a Front Office Receptionist.

In her role, Chloe welcomes guests, manages check-ins and enquiries, and helps set the tone for each stay by sharing her local knowledge and helping guests make the most of their time in Queenstown.

One of the standout parts of Chloe’s experience so far has been working alongside a close-knit, international team and meeting guests from all over the world. She has also had the opportunity to take part in industry familiarisations, including a memorable trip to Doubtful Sound, an experience she will not forget anytime soon.

Her internship has already provided valuable learning opportunities. Managing busy check-in periods has helped Chloe build strong time management skills, stay organised, and confidently deliver a high level of service under pressure.

Looking ahead, Chloe is excited to continue developing her knowledge of the lodge’s offerings and growing in confidence as she progresses in her role.

📍 Rosewood Matakauri, Queenstown
