Lovely big apartment with under floor heating and excellent mountain views, set it beautiful gardens. Easy access to local area, lots of shops and restaurants at five mile. Walking along the river nearby was a highlight too, as was the very friendly Oscar the cat. Only slight negative was limited kitchen space, a bit tricky when cooking for 4 people, but overall a great stay and highly recommend.

6/10 Good

From the reviews, I expected a warm cosy BnB, what I found was a house with accommodative rooms. It described the property as luxury, however it seems to me as a little run down. We arrived to no reception, only a piece of paper to direct us to our room - which was a disability studio (unexpected). The property was described as a lodge with open fireplace - no such thing. It lacked warmth and hospitality, no sign of breakfast nor the smell of coffee brewing in the morning. A little disappointing, after having booked a room based on reviews. The room was presentable enough, bed comfy with views of the mountains, but I would not rate it as a charming lodge nor BnB compared to others in the area. If you are looking for a bed near the airport this would suit.

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.

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!

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!

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!

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.
