Rotorua by the lake

This home is beautifully situated right next to a lake and with a lovely garden. Quiet and with a very comfortable bed in the Master. Best sheets of our holiday of 6 locations! We really appreciated being able to bring our dog too. Only negative would be the tired carpet which is bordering on dangerous where ripped on the stairs into the lounge.

Midwinter getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very warm and cosy with plenty of room for all of us. The spa was wonderful as was the fireplace in the lounge. Our 1 year old grandson loved perusing the garden and playing on the lawns both at the front and rear of the property. The property was conveniently located to all the destinations we headed to. Overall a lovely extended weekend stay, thank you. We will definitely be back. :)

Great family weekend away

Good location, comfortable property with room for us all (7 adults). Property felt a bit neglected...broken outdoor furniture, lights not working. Could do with a spring clean inside and out. Overall a relaxing, comfortable holiday home but could be even better with some TLC.

Great spot for R&R

Enjoyed our holiday here for a week. Has everything we needed and any property quirks were promptly resolved by the manager. Close for lake for kayaking, spa for a relaxed end of day, and great BBQ. Air conditioning was very appreciated, and I’m sure the fire would be lovely in the winter. Our group had three adult couples and we found the fridge small but I think if we had one person shopping (not 5!) then we would have been fine

Nice and relaxing

The house is great. Just needs some little maintenance for health and safety. A couple of boards on the deck needs replacing. The nails on the deck stick out so need banging in properly, and the sliding doors need safety glass put in. There was no outside light outside the lounge door, and I ended up walking through it as I couldnt see, getting 7 stitchs in my knee, with multipal cuts over my body. Wouldnt of happen if there was safety glass and/or a light outside. A enjoyable holiday though.

Magic spot

Fantastic clean and tidy bach, plenty of space and a great location in a quiet area beside the lake. Had everything we needed and only a 5 min drive to the centre of town so very convenient. Easy to deal with and would stay again. Thanks
