Summary: The location of Kundaniwas was ideal is so many ways. Even though it is close to the adjacent property, it is nestled in the bush so that it has a really private feel to it. The trailhead for Lake Okereka (recommended) is conveniently just across the street. It is just a few minutes from Rotorua, and its many attractions, but apart from the crowd. The house itself is tidy, clean & well laid out. I had a great stay!

Summary: The location is great. Stunning views of Lake Ōkareka and a short walk down to the waterside. Easy access to Rotorua. We found the place to be generally clean and tidy but there were a few hairs in the bathroom. We were inundated with ants which managed to get into containers that we thought we sealed. Definitely make sure all food is well sealed or in the fridge. Generally very peaceful and private. Although the owner organised a builder to arrive first thing in the morning, which ruined the sleep in a bit. Still, overall, an enjoyable stay.

Summary: This is an ideal accommodation if you are two, have a car and would like to stay in the area of Rotorua for several days. When you book it, an e-mail will be sent by the owner. Please check your spam folder so as not to miss it. You can enjoy a calm environment surrounded by NZ nature. A 4 km walk around the lake is recommended.

Summary: Overall good stay. The house is very well laid out considering the size of it and has everything you need. It probably needs a spring clean as few cobwebs dusty sills etc if you're wanting something pristine, but all the day to day areas were tidy and clean making it very enjoyable. The birdsong in the morning is incredible and we'd come back and stay again.
