This location was excellent! Hosts were very helpful and provided everything for a wonderful stay. The house sits right along the water with fantastic views during morning coffee or to sit and relax in the evening. The house had plenty of space and all amenities we needed were provided. The location was perfect as it was close to downtown but also only 10 minutes from Hell’s Gate Spa. Would definitely recommend and will stay here again when next in Rotorua.
Restful location, great indoor and outdoor spaces, clean and well set up (took some linen that was provided). Enjoyed our stay(

Family Holiday
We had good stay and photos don’t do justice as property is even better in person.We are certainly visiting again, there were some spiders and webs inside the house but i guess that is given considering the location.We are still visiting again in the near future
