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!

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.

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.

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

Amazing accommodation

Beautiful accommodation in a beautiful location - Apartment was clean, tidy and luxurious. On our road trip around NZ we stayed at 7 different locations and this would be by far our top pick. Private location with all the comforts for a relaxing stay. Only a short drive to a major shopping complex and other attractions around Queenstown - great location to base yourself from to explore... Our family loved it - we didn't want to leave this amazing place!!
