Lakeside Loft

Yun-TaiRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Kristin has been great with communication, offering early check in as soon as the place is available. Location is excellent, lake front, next to many restaurants and most importantly, 3 min walk to Wai Ariki hot spring which is the main reason for our visit to Rotorua. Note though because of the proximity to Eat Street - Friday night particularly can be very noisy , music well into 1am . The pull out couch at the study does sleep the 5th guest, but the study is more a recess from the kitchen area, so whoever sleeps there bring eye mask and ear plugs.

Immaculate, fresh and welcoming apartment completely kitted out with more than you would need for convenience - loved the little 'extra' touches throughout especially the way it is perfectly equipped for families with young ones!

Great place to stay, incredible views every morning and very friendly host who made me feel very welcome. The home was very well furnished, the beds were extremely comfortable. I will remember this place very fondly and will hope to be back one day

Waking up to the tremendous view of the lake and watching the swans on the water, hearing the bird song in the trees. We couldn't have enjoyed it more.

Lake Views for Days – Okere Falls Escape

JohnRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Peaceful location with amazing lake views. Very clean and tidy, and the fully equipped modern kitchen made us feel right at home. The welcome treats were a lovely touch. Loved the kayaks, firepit, and the well stocked games cupboard. Would definitely stay again.

The Terrace was incredible! The home , the views, the beds all fabulous! Felt like high rollers! A special mention to Angie, our host, super quick to respond, very easy to communicate with, we had a double booking at first home we booked, Angie had us sorted within an hour in this property, no stress felt at our end at all! Thank you! We had our grand daughter’s 6th birthday with lots of spas, dance party’s 🥳 and cake! Lots of amazing memories made! Thanks for sharing this incredible spot!

(2) Splendid Lakeside Retreat

ConnieRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a fantastic short stay. It was comfortable and had everything for a relaxing visit. Food was left for us which was a thoughtful touch and much appreciated. The views of the lake are stunning, it was the highlight. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a peaceful and welcoming place just outside the main centre.

Rotorua Serenity Lakeview Retreat

StaceyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
An exceptional place to stay and the hosts have put so much time and effort into lots of details around the property. Couldn't recommend it more - it was an absolute stand out in our trip around Aotearoa New Zealand!

Lakefront Rotorua in Town

JessieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is the top accommodation I’ve experienced in Rotorua. Both the interior and exterior are spacious, comfortable, and clean. The actual place looks even better than the photos. You can enjoy a private hot spring with peaceful scenery, and there‘s a lakefront and playground just a 3-minute walk away, making it the perfect accommodation where parents and children can all enjoy together.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
