About this property

Kundaniwas - 1 Bedroom Tiny House with Lake Views

Kundaniwas meaning 'A small house by the lake' is a lovely little stand-alone unit on the side of the owner's main residence. The house is situated to look straight out to Lake Okareka which is directly across the road along with the Okareka Walkway and bird sanctuary. The kitchen, lounge, bathroom and washing machine is on the ground level with the bedroom upstairs. The stairs to the bedroom are quite steep so you'll want to be fit and mobile to stay here.

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.

Kundaniwas

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.

Lovely spot

This house is small but well kitted out. It is a quiet and comfortable place to stay in a lovely spot looking out over the lake. The hosts responded quickly to any queries we had. We’d stay here again.

Disliked: Cleanliness

The property was ok…not on the lake…overlooks a small parking lot to access trails and limited view of the lake. The place needs some updating…perhaps the price reflects that a bit. Appliances are old, uncomfortable couch/daybed. Had lots of dishes etc but didn’t have a can opener which we needed. The bed also had an old heating pad which started to burn the mattress while we were there!

This really is a lovely little house. So well thought out and extremely well equipped. Clean and comfortable. Be aware the stairs are very steep. Wonderful views over lake Okareka and very quiet. Lake Okareka walkway starts just over the road and heads across the wetlands on a board walk then round the lake. Rotorua is a short drive.

Beautiful Spot / Beautiful Cabin

We spent a lovely weekend here. The view over the lake from the deck is great - and a great space to enjoy a dinner. We really enjoyed the walking trail around the late. Our second night was clear and the dark skies were amazing. Highly recommended.
