Lynette, so pleased the central spot worked well for you. That walk into town really does make things easy, doesn't it? Thanks for taking such great care of the place.

Great older home that has been renovated and updated. Clean and really appreciated having 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, washer/dryer, an BBQ. Huge back yard and being in a quiet neighborhood but still close to everything makes it ideal for families. Susan was super responsive throughout the booking and during the visit. So much to see and do in the area we hope to come back soon!

Bill, so pleased the setup worked well for your family - those four bedrooms and the big backyard really do make a difference when you've got everyone together. Rotorua has a way of surprising people with how much there is to explore, so we'd love to have you back when you're ready for round two.

Very spacious and comfortable house that was in a very convenient location. We were able to check in early which was a real bonus. Would definitely recommend this house.
beautiful home, handy to town and all ammenities, spa was a bonus - our group attended a conference and were very impressed with the high quality of this beautifully renovated home, definitely will stay again next time we are in Rotorua
It was a lovely stay and just what we needed. It was clean and the kids where happy as they had their own bedrooms. The hot tub was amazing. Thank you for a beautiful house and easy instructions. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much.
The property was very central to town & lovely cafe Urbano at the end of the road.It was clean & tidy. Spa pool lovely, clean & relaxing.Two beds were very hard but adequate for our weekend.Thank you Susan.
Location was convenient and close to all activities and restaurants.. home could use a little more TLC but spacious and quiet. Has minimal amenities provided but hot tub was clean
We enjoyed our short stay in the middle of a quiet neighborhood that was a quick drive to everything in town. The house was as advertised; spacious and clean. Our stay was too short to really settle in, but we had everything we needed while we were there.
This is a great location that is central to Rotorua. Of course, if you have a car, nothing in Rotorua is far to get to!The spa was a welcome extra - wish we could have used it more .Would definitely book this place again.
The house was very clean and modern. Lots of space inside and a big garden. Hot tub was a wellcome extra we could use. Good off road parking and close to small shops for buying essentials.
