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. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a1f122a1-d332-40c9-b729-67d6d43fbc31-1757171956442.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a580ad25-8e38-47f9-8f2f-1792a23bf265-1757171956528.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8a92a1b0-3441-44ba-b39a-df70618241d4-1757171956888.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jonathan Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 28 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Stunning property with a stunning outlook.

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 Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen 8 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication 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 Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mandy 13 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication 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. ##### Mandy Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deborah 11 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication I had the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in.
