Fantastic Lakeside Stay in The City

A perfect spot within 5 minutes walk from the city. We were very comfortable with lots of space inside and plenty of beds. Sitting out on the deck and jumping in the hot pool, looking out towards the lake was the highlight of our stay.

Great View and Location

Great experience in Rotorua. The location on the lake offered fantastic views of the lake and different types of birds, including black swans. We were walking distance to restaurants in Rotorua. The back deck was perfect for hanging out in the morning and evening. The driveway easily fit 3 cars. Really enjoyed the trip!

Great Location and Property

Had a good stay, was a bit of a process checking in as owner was not aware of our booking through this site. Resolved quickly (house had to be cleaned!) and despite a few things not working (spa & WiFi), owner was very accommodating. Would stay again!

This home has amazing potential

The home is very spacious and has a lot of potential. It is located in a very cool part of town with a lot of fun things to do within walking distance. The beds were comfortable. The view of the lake is very nice.
