Top Lake Rotokakahi Hotel Reviews

Rydges Rotorua

8/10 Good

"Nice"

Tranquil Hideaway - Lake Okareka Holiday Home

10/10 Excellent

"Great place. Highly recommend"

Kundaniwas - Lake Okareka Tiny House, Kayaks

10/10 Excellent

"A great little place to getaway to, very easy to find with good directions for both for the property and for checking in. Very quiet but within easy reach of Rotorua.We really enjoyed our winter break.Great support from the InnList team"

Blue Lake Top 10 Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"Easy check in after hours - staff had the heater on when we arrived."

The Boat Shed - Lake Ōkareka Views, Sleeps 4

10/10 Excellent

"Very cool location with beautiful lake views from both sides.Small kitchen and bathroom downstairs. Quite cold in that downstairs area as although there was an excellent heatpump all the heat went upwards and there are no window coverings in the entry. Beautifully warm in the upstairs lounge, bedroom and loft bedroom. Had all we needed for a comfortable stay.We stayed as a family of four. Note the loft bed is right above the other bed and it did sound like the kids were right next to us when they were whispering during the night. Easily solved with earplugs, but something to be aware of.Would stay here again."

Millar's Hideaway - Lake Views, Walk to Beach

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed in mid-July and found the property to be lovely and warm. The heat pump was more than sufficient to keep the home comfortable throughout my stay. It was peaceful and quiet, yet still conveniently close to town. For me, it was the perfect place to stay, and I would happily return.Kind regards,Daisy"

Tranquil Lake Retreat - Lake Okareka, Sleeps 12

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic house, beautiful layout and huge amount of amenities. Fully stocked kitchen and fantastic spa pool.Place is huge and could easily hold 3 families with kids. Village was really nice and close to multiple lakes and only a short drive to Rotorua. There was only three of us so didn’t use half the house it was that big!!House was spotlessly clean, dry and a great place to chill out. Highly recommended with all the mod cons. Was fully air conditioned with seperate heaters and huge beds were super comfortable. Can’t rate highly enough if you want to escape the main town. 2 minutes from a boat ramp as well"

Waterfront Escape - Lakefront Jetty, Sleeps 14

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing time staying here. The house and location was wonderful for my big family and there was more than enough room for everybody. The views were breathtaking and I definitely will be back again. I would highly recommend this property."

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, small quiet settlement close to Rotorua and the Redwoods. Has everything you need and is nice and cozy with a fireplace. Good for a quiet time away for a bit of digital detox."
