Guest Reviews
- Diana (9/5): -
- Dave (8/5): -
- Carina (7/5): Nice house with a great view of the lake - The House is spacious and comfortable. The view of the lake is Gorgeous. I think the whole place needs a deep clean and may be a coat of paint. Especially the extractor hood in the kitchen and all the windows.
- John (10/5): Extremely clean, comfortable and well-equipped, very friendly and helpful host, highly recommended. - The house offered everything and more, even down to a printer! We didn't need it, but it showed the degree of consideration shown by the owners. The TV also had a good quality soundbar, the appliances were near new and also of high quality, the beds were very comfortable and the linen and towels were of high quality. The weather was rather warm and stuffy when we were there so we were relieved to find pedestal fans in the wardrobes.
Host Marlene responded immediately (and in a very friendly manner) to my SMS requesting late check-out, and readily agreed to it at no extra cost whereas she would have been quite justified in requiring an additional payment. We didn't dislike anything, but in terms of providing what may be useful feedback -
- I think we struggled to operate the TV so clear instructions would help (or perhaps we didn't find them)
- I found the pillows a bit flimsy, although I've no doubt they were good quality, so it was really good to find firmer pillows in the wardrobe
- Crystal (9/5): - The host is super friendly n helpful. Beautiful location
- Daisy (10/5): - Amazing location, quiet and lake view from the house. We can walk our fur babies soaking morning sunshine with the lake view.
- Suzi (10/5): Very homey - It’s a shame the deck surrounding is solid, would have been nice to be clear so we could enjoy the view better
- Christine (10/5): We loved the lake view and the setting on the large elevated site, cozy and warm property - Beautiful Lake View; set on large section, cozy house on winters night . We were able to take our dog, close to lake park walk. Na
- Joshua (10/5): - The house was so nice and minimalist but felt spacious. The views we woke up to were breath taking. All the amenities made the stay really feel like we were at home. Would definitely recommend this home for a family absolutely beautiful. Nothing... literally nothing it was perfect.
- Lianne (10/5): Verblijf hier! Compleet huis op een heerlijke rustige plek in Rotorua - Wat een heerlijk huis!
Aan alles is gedacht en het is compleet ingericht. De bedden zijn fantastisch en de ligging is geweldig aan het meer. We hebben het meer dan naar ons zin gehad, jammer dat we maar 1 nacht hier hadden. Helemaal niks!
- Jessica (10/5): A great pet-friendly home with a wonderful view of the lake. - Fabulous accommodation – great location, exceptionally clean, and had everything we needed. The hosts were easy to contact and provided all necessary check in information well in advance. We also loved that the hosts gave us a 30 min window to check out (rather than a set time). Five stars - we would highly recommend.

- Roimata (10/5): Exceptional - Short stay, great accommodation, host and facilities, grounds, amazing VIEWS across lake Rotorua to the city and maunga Ngongotaha, and a fabulous fire place which we lit for that chilly Rotorua night and our fur babies were allowed as well. We recommend this home away from home. Ngā mihi nui to Jason n Marlene from us Roimata, Joelene and Ariana 🤗🤗🤗 Having to leave! 🤗🤗

- Shannon (8/5): We enjoyed the whole space and the deep bath was heavenly after of physical activity. We played some board games which - Well set out comfortable and a great place to relax just far away from town. The view at sun set is beautiful. Thankyou for the heads up about the trout flies, that was a valuable at night time. Some of us prefer instant coffee which there was none
- Ben (9/5): Superb -
- Danielle (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely, cosy home right on Rotorua lake. Nice and quiet, relaxing location yet very close to town. It was just right for 4 of us. Nothing, but make sure you follow instructions and keep all windows and doors shut at night so the lake flies don't get in!

- Kan (8/5): Very good - 1. Overlooking the lake with a local love story.
2. Kitchen facility very much available and clean too.
3. Aircon is definitely very helpful at night to keep those trout flies out
4. The flowers and the lemon trees
5. The washing machines and tumbler are pretty useful 1. One toilet and one tiny bathroom is definitely a tight rush for a family of 7.
2. Biggest issue is still with the one toilet and one tiny bathroom

- Chance (10/5): Exceptional - It’s was nice an cozy warm home The lake flies are horrible but that is all
- Carol (10/5): Comfortable cottage, well equipped, lake views - This is a really comfortable cottage with 2 bigger rooms & one single room, one shared bathroom, and deck out from the lounge with a lake view. Wooden floors. Double glazed so cosy even though it was winter.
2 heat pumps (lounge & hall) and we enjoyed the wood fire . We were a group of three friends & it was great - private & great for cooking meals. 10 mins drive to Rotorua.
Clean & comfortable.

Beautiful view of the lake, and the location is great as it was very quiet with no thoroughfare, We struggled a bit to fit 5 adults around the TV as there was only one couch, but it was a really comfy couch none the less.
There were other chairs from the dining table and office chair which we used.
