Such a great place if you have a group of people. Fits everyone in their own bed. Great spaces to lounge and talk, eat, watch the sunrise, store bikes in the garage and have a lovely spa. Host communicates quickly.. i had such a great weekend with good friends for my birthday. Close to town and amenities.

Tamsyn, what a wonderful way to celebrate your birthday - a full house of friends, those sunrise moments, and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. We're so pleased the space worked well for your group, and that you made the most of everything from the spa to the bike storage. Thanks for choosing Deluxe Redwoods for such a special weekend.

DANIELA, thanks so much for the lovely review. That quiet spot near the Redwoods really is something special - so pleased it worked perfectly for you. We'd be happy to host you again whenever you're back in Rotorua.

Great house for our mid winter Christmas. Lovely views. Plenty of parking. Well stocked kitchen. Children loved the bunk room. Even though a freezing weekend, the wood burner got the living area toasty warm. Great communication from host. Only minus was that some furnishings were a bit tired but that is probably due to the sun which streams in.
Everything was easy-you can see the lake and the view is great! Would highly recommend for a large group-lots of parking-had 4 cars and they all fit in the driveway
This was a great location and easy to get into town to do activities. I would recommend the location to anyone visiting the area.

We stayed here with a group of family and friends and it was perfect. Convenient to the center of town while also quiet, and the spot on the hill gave an amazing view of the lake. Dream kitchen, cozy common areas.
Perfect accommodation for our large extended family group.
Facilities were good, including spa, kitchen lounge and the multi bed downstairs was perfect for several cousins.
We would stay again
We really enjoyed our stay, we found the place very spacious and comfortable. The property is in a very nice area, but still close enough to all ammenties. Highly recommend, would stay again.
We loved staying at this property. There was ample room for all three families and we loved the downstairs area for the kids. Would definitely recommend and stay again if we come back to Rotorua. Thanks heaps
This is a lovely house. Plenty of room for a big extended group to stay. All the mod cons and really clean and tidy. We had a good time staying here and would highly recommend.
