Fantastic home that provided ample room and privacy for an extended family of 22. Incredible views and amenities in this double house that made us feel immediately at home. Guy was an excellent host and couldn’t be more helpful with all aspects of our stay. A wonderful week was enjoyed by all. The 3 Toyota Prados were icing on the cake to make this holiday thoroughly memorable.

I couldn't say a bad word about this place, stunning views very clean and beautiful house. Guy was so amazing with giving us information about almost anything and was very happy to help when we needed it. Our party of 10 could not recommend this place more, we cannot wait to stay here again

Had much of my family gather for my 60 birthday. Guy’s home gave all of us the space and the privacy at the same time. Views were spectacular. Location to all Queenstown had to offer was great. Highly recommend this beautiful home.

Sublime

After searching throughout New Zealand, 7 Manata was the best venue for our celebration. All 22 of us were able to stay at one property and have a dinner party on site with a fabulous view. Photos don't do it justice, you have to see the ever-changing light on Lake Wakatipu and the mountains. 7UP has a spacious kitchen and living room where we could all gather comfortably. The kitchen was well equiped with everything you need. The 3 Utes (4x4 Prados) were a huge bonus, making airport logistics and trip into town easy. We slept 22 but check with host, as the floorplan and bed configuration we had from the web was not up to date. 7LY, next door to 7UP, is more of a basic space. It does not have a living room space and the kitchen is not as well appointed. Three bedrooms share one bathroom. However, there was plenty of room for all guest in the common spaces in 7UP; Plan to hang out together there. Guy was incredibly gracious and helpful in our planning. He was extremely responsive and flexible. He accommodated our caterer and all of our requests. We would not hesitate to book again.

Houses are beautiful. Guy was really easy to communicate with. A few issues that he was more than happy to assess moving forward. Related to the limited down time the property has and lack of honest responses i think. 7LY is not as nice as 7UP but with a couple of basic fixes and updates I think it'll be close and a nice hide away from the main house. Views are fantastic and entertaining areas are good too. Would stay again.

Amazing stay with an amazing host, location definitely boasts a stunning view. There are so many positives about this holiday house. One of the best features is the ability to house a large number, we had a total of 16 during our stay and still had spare rooms/beds. Well kept and clean location. The fact that 3 Toyota Prados were provided is actually amazeballs, really helped so much on our trip especially for our winter stay, we used them to head to the snowy mountains and into town. I would not under state the toiletries, all bathrooms came with the standards shampoo,conditioner,body wash. I believe everyone would have gotten 2 sets of towels (bath/hand/floor/etc), small things like this make the stay that much better because really you are on a holiday and unless you're getting hotel services, extra clean towels really make the experience that much better, mega appreciated, particularly for uses like the two spas available. Really large living space definitely suitable for large group.

7 Manata really works for big groups with common and private areas. We were 3 families and 4 grandparents and 2 adults. The access to the vehicles together with the accommodation, and views, and location make this a very special package. We spent 2 weeks. Although it is a lot of money it actually works out to be excellent value for money and quite reasonable per person. Guy is a good host and 7 Manata lived up to expectation. We had a very memorable time.
