Warmest NZ hospitality!

John was a fantastic host. Even though my daughter and I only spent one night, everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided. He was warm, gracious, and a wonderful example of New Zealand hospitality. We’ll definitely be returning!

Beautiful property with amazing views. Nice heated pool for kids to swim in. Really enjoyed our time here.
Sanjay, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a great stay at Manata Lodge and was entertained by Oscar the cat, who inspired me to go on safari due to his hunting skills. I most enjoyed sitting out on the patio apres ski as I could relax out in the warm sun. The hot tub was great too for additional relaxation. John the owner guided me to enjoy a scenic mountain bike ride along the Shotover river. I would stay here again due to the fact that it is away from the congestion around Queenstown but still close to the ski areas, dining, shopping and the airport.

Stunning property with a stunning outlook. Host was very welcoming which made our quick stay very comfortable. Close enough to town, yet far enough to feel private and relaxing. Highly recommend.

Stayed twice at Manata at beginning and end of our trip. Loved that Manata had all the amenities we needed. It was super clean and quiet and had everything we needed and we loved our visits from Oscar the resident cat! Thanks very much John. We will be back again one day!

Exceptional!!

This lodge thought of everything!! From the comfortable bed to the large kitchenette and across the french folding doors to the patio area...just magnificent! The view from the room was spectacular. It is slightly out of town so very quiet. The extra little things they added made the stay awesome! DVD`s, games, books, laundry, bicycles for use and helmets. The the cream on the top was for sure the HOT TUB!! They is also an outdoor pool, but we were there in winter so unusable. I can not give this hotel enough stars or recognition! Definitely stay here if you get the chance!

The check-in process could improve, I didn't receive any check-in notifications as stated in the booking information, however once I contacted the owner, it was easy peasy. The property was super nice and updated, with a pool and hot tub. We stayed in the handicap accessible room and I've never stayed in a more accommodating place for upscale accessibility! We wish we could have stayed longer!
Lisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The best host among all I’ve come across. Enquire about bed setting days before our stay. Follow up closely of what we need during our 3 days’ stay. Bonus snooker table that we spent our night happily together.
Karen, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in. Everything was absolutely spotless. John could not have been more helpful
Deborah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a fabulous family stay in the 2 bedroom apartment at Manata Lodge. Our adult family gathered from 3 different destinations. The surroundings were park like, the apartment and staff were very welcoming and we highly recommend this accommodation for a relaxing, peaceful stay. We made use of the pool, sauna and there was a spa as well. Our son (ex chief) cooked beautiful meals for us, using the kitchen and the BBQ and we all enjoyed Oscar, the cat, sharing the love! Thank you Manata Lodge. We will return.

John, the property owner, is an approachable and engaged person. He understands customers well and strives to excel. He succeeded. If I return to Queensland, NZ, I am booking at Manata Lodge.,

都心から少し離れた立地ならではの良さがあり、施設もオーナーもスタッフの方も素晴らしかったです。Expediaに「1棟貸し」と説明があったので、十分な広さではありましたが、訂正が必要と思います。

숙소 내부는 원룸 스타일이었고 주거하기 편리하였습니다. 집 주변의 환경은 마치 잘 관리된 공원 같아서 너무나 좋았습니다. 다시 가고 싶네요.
