Arias Farm CABIN Rotorua + Hot Spa - 2 Bedrm farm accom in suburbs
Great little rustic 1970's bach/cabin unit for a family on the go with 2-3 kids, or two couples wanting their own rooms. One room has a nice king bed, and the other room has a double bunk - thick comfortable double bed at the bottom and single at the top. Extra futon bunk in lounge. Internal airconditioning and heating in both rooms. The cabin has a lounge and TV and it's own private deck and outdoor chairs overlooking an expansive lawn and stream at the bottom. A warm spa hot tub is right beside the deck (shared facility). Miniature kitchenette contains full fridge, microwave, frypan, toaster, jug, electric cooktop and all the pots and crockery (no conventional stove/oven). Outside on the covered deck is a nice big BBQ for summer sizzles. At the upper Lodge grounds there are great family facilities to share including volleyball, trampoline, petanque, and sandpit. Our wannabe city-farm is great for kids to feed the sheep, chickens, rabbits and the occasional piglets during feeding time. During spring we will often have chicks, piglets and lambs to pet. We are on the outskirts of town, about the same distance from city centre as the gondolas (same Auckland-side of town). So there's no traffic and no sulphur smell, but the city bus stops right at the front gate and a taxi from the pubs is still affordable! If this Cabin shows booked, please check under the Arias COTTAGE listing for availability. *All prices include bedding, towels, and cleaning of linen when you leave. Special conditions: Smokers outdoors under the verandah please. Carparks allotted.

ALCOHOL: All bookings through bookabach are alcohol-free; a quiet one is fine but if you wish to have a social occasion with alcohol, there is a separate surcharge plus extra conditions to follow. Extras: Linen (included); NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the kitchen and do the dishes before you leave; remove your rubbish, clean the BBQ, and leave the bedding as-is; we do the beds and bathrooms. Please note we have external security cameras operating for your peace of mind.

We had such a great experience staying here, our kids loved seeing all the farm animals and having so much space to run around in, plus the spa was very relaxing.
Amazing place to stay with young children! So many bed options, the kids love all the animals and the owners let the kids join in on feeding the animals and took them on a farm tour. Even with another cabin next door it is set out so privately for each one. 5 stars! Will definitely stay again
This place was perfect for us. So quiet and plenty of space for our freyhound in the fully fenced back yard for our cabin. Great for kids and pets. Hope to stay again.

Most welcome Hollie, and your group and pet were lovely and respectful of other spaces and left the place lovely and clean. Most welcome back any time!! Cheers Kerris, Chris & Bianca.
It is a nice place, and it fits lots of people. The place is dated and could use some sprucing up, but the setting is great. The grandkids loved feeding the animals and they also spent a lot of time in the hot tub or on the trampoline. The hosts were great.
Amazing 3 acre farm in Rotorua. So it was amazing. Owners were great. Kitchen is really small (frig less than half size with extremely limited ice). But setting was great overlooking woods even tho you are in town.

Thank you so much for your review Lizette, it was our pleasure hosting such lovely people. I hope your knee is improving, and love to have you back some day!
The property was accurately represented on book-a-bach. A very homely and cosy cabin with everything you need for a short visit. Communication was great and check-in was easy peasey. My grandson enjoyed the farm animals just over the fence. The shared spa is fantabulous and became part of my daily morning and evening routine. Very quiet and peaceful location. Fully fenced area for my schnoodle. Highly recommended!!
Our stay at Aria farm by far exceeded expectations. They were able to accommodate our dogs, reasonably priced, close to town, Kerris was lovely and helpful, excellent communication. We were given a dozen eggs on arrival. The place was serene, rural but close to town, clean and comfortable, and we were able to partake in farm life. We will definitely be back and recommend to all our family and friends.
Thanks Kerris and family for sharing your piece of paradise with us!

Loved the property, amazing spot away from all the rush of city life. Hosts are awesome, easy to communicate with and very helpful. Loved the use of the spa and volleyball net. Was a great stay!
Easy to find little farmlet with comfortable accommodation in the cabin. Nice and quiet and if you want to check out all the animals on the farm you could join in a tour at feeding time. We needed accommodation that allowed dogs, as they travel with us. We enjoyed using the spa after our pickleball tournament.
Quiet and rustic, amazing atmosphere and the feeding of the animals was a great experience for the kids who absorbed every moment of it!!
Definitely would come back here and would highly recommend for those who want to step back, relax and enjoy a change from busy life.
Rural location with lots of animals 🐷🐱👤🐔🐑🐐🦆🙂 Relaxing spa pool. Warm accommodation with magic bed in which my husband did not pull the covers off me overnight!? Dedicated car park. Very friendly owner. Good base for access to town centre & a visit to Wingspan - the National Bird of Prey Centre.
Awesome, clean, quite, everything you need all under 1 roof.. Great location nice friendly hosts, great spa ran out of time too try it out will next time I'm back.. You wouldn't even think your in Rotorua nice and quiet but still not far from town..
Thank you soo much for a awesome stay loved it!!
Such a cute & relaxing place, away from hosts so very private but there if we needed them..had everything we needed & location was perfect for the activities we had booked! Breaky on the deck every morning with the sunrise & spa every night were definite highlights of the stay🥰
Lovely place to stay, relaxing to wake up in the morning,quiet and private. Way more comfortable than an expensive motel. Will definitely come back again
