Summary: Kitchen is not very well equipped. Property was sufficient, but not up to the standards we're used to. Plenty of room. Communication not the best. View is lovely. Property needs some attention.

Summary: We had an incredible stay at this waterfront property in Rotorua! The location was absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views right on the water. The home was easy to access and perfectly equipped with everything we needed for our group of seven.One of the highlights was the kayaks, which allowed us to explore the lake up close, paddle through the amazing lily pads, and even spot sheep grazing across the water—a truly unique experience! The showers were fantastic as well, adding a touch of luxury to our stay.This property exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene, well-equipped getaway in Rotorua.

Summary: Overall very enjoyable and only hitch no gas for the BBQ, but felt maintenance had been let slip, lights in one bathroom didn't work, clothes dryer door latch broken, main doors to deck unable to be used, outdoor chair broken, coffee milk-frother agitator missing, broken tile in laundry floor, all minor other than the deck doors and could/should have been repaired before our stay.

Summary: This home had plenty of beds and bathrooms for our group of 10. It was easily accessed and we were well located for all the activities that we had planned to do in the area. The home was right on the lake and had a beautiful view from the back of the house and patio.

Summary: Our accommodation met our every need, plenty of room for 6 adults, 5 children staying there. The kids enjoyed the canoeing, kayaking on the lake and plenty of outside area for an Easter hunt. Would recommend the property for family/friends get-togethers

Summary: The accommodation is fantastic! 3 bathrooms, many beds, spacious and the views are beautiful! Beds were most comfortable. A couple of minor things: main living area aircon remote downstairs doesn’t work. Couldn’t use lounge doors to deck, but I imagine that will be repaired soon? We were there for a wedding and hosted 20 on two separate afternoons and everyone commented on how gorgeous the home and location is. We will stay again, for sure 🥂
