Cottage holiday rentals in Rotorua

Nikki was a great host and communicated really well. Her home was lovely and we had a great time. Nice touch with the Christmas cake which was delicious

Excellent stay and so close to everything. Easy check in and clear communication made everything seamless. Would recommend staying again. Only thing we did not use was the hot tub as we were unsure when it was cleaned or maintained last. All else was perfect!

We absolutely loved our stay at Kearu’s Nest. The beds were so comfortable, and the linen was beautiful. After a magical day on the lake, it was amazing to come home to an outdoor fire and relax in the spa. The birdlife was incredible, and the tūī birdsong made it even more special. With just a short walk to the lake, we made the most of early morning swims. We will definitely be back. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality, Ange and Dave!

Thank you for a PERFECT stay! Your home is beautiful in a picturesque setting. We enjoyed every moment!

Beautiful, spotless space with everything we could need. Great for the kids. Thank you Lynley for sharing your bach with us

Perfect little batch, very easy walk to the beach and a close bike ride or drive to shops, cafes, and handy to the Mount. We had everything we needed here and would stay again.

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage! Quite spacious for us as we had our 8 month old daughter with us. Porta cot fitted nicely into the room. The spa was a nice touch to come home and end the night with after spending the day with friends and family. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a small, quiet and private cottage. We hope to be back soon 😊

We loved our stay at Shaw Cottage. The check-in was very easy and everything was open for us when we arrived. The cottage was just like the pictures, super clean and had all the amenities we needed. The hosts even provided the ability to wash our clothes. Highlights: Communication: Marie responded immediately and kindly to anything we needed Location: The cottage is a bit out of the way, but that is what we were looking for. Very quiet and private - beautiful county scenery. We were looking for something situated between the coast (Te Puke) and Rotorua and this fit the bill perfectly. Comfortability: The cottage was cozy and all the windows made for a bright and warm atmosphere. Bed, couches, chairs were very comfortable. Cleanliness: Everything was clean, neat, and well kept up. We would definitely stay here again!

We couldn’t have picked a more perfect spot for our mini-moon! From the moment we arrived, we were in love—gorgeous flower gardens, dreamy hydrangeas, and the most charming vintage decor that was so our vibe. Every little detail was thoughtful and welcoming. Our small dog, Hazel, was just as happy as we were, enjoying the peaceful surroundings and exploring the garden. It felt like a cosy, romantic escape while still having all the comforts of home. We truly didn’t want to leave! Love, love, love—would stay again in a heartbeat! 💕✨🐾

Really great cottage in amazing surroundings. It was fabulous to be able to take the dog and wander around the farm and see the animals. The cottage is comfortable and functionable rather than luxurious. This suited exactly what I was looking for. Very nicely located near the airport and supermarket, while still a short drive to town and the MTB park.

Such a great property for a large family to enjoy the simple things. Photos are accurate and place is exactly as described. The reserve next door makes you feel like you have an even larger backyard. Great walks near by, easy access to lake a short walk or 2 minute drive away. Friendly and responsive hosts. Our 2nd time here and will visit again.

Great little house with everything we needed. Short walk to the beach and some great places for brunch. Loved we could take our dog

We had a wonderful relaxing stay, The section was fully fenced Perfect for our dog & it's just a short walk to the beach, shopping center & Café. Loved all the outdoor seating areas. looking forward to staying again.

Our family had a fantastic stay at the Cheeky Tūī. It was perfectly set up for our two young boys who especially enjoyed the box of Duplo and the trampoline. We had an excellent time exploring the nearby lagoon and were lucky enough to spot trout spawning in the steam. Looking forward to our next adventure at Lake Tarawera!

Dan's place is just a piece of paradise! Right in front of the lake, with private jetty and private ramp, away from the main road, totally safe for children. Highly recommend! Dan is very responsive and welcoming, makes you feel like home. Looking forward to return again!

If you're looking for the ideal location to experience all that Rotorua has to offer, look no further! This beautiful house, with its lovely lake views, is conveniently situated within a short drive of the Redwood Forest, the town center, geothermal walks, and relaxing spa experiences. Marlene and Jason were very responsive and super helpful. Plus, having a dog-friendly space with a great hill for exploring (and amazing views!) was a huge bonus. We highly recommend this property!

Great place to stay for riding in the red woods. Bike lockup was fantastic.

The Huia art was awesome! The tea cozy and the collection of cups was very cute. Was peaceful, easy to find. Great location. Thanks again Nadia.

Rob did a phenomenal job making sure we felt welcomed. His place was clean and he provided a binder filled with recommendations for activities to do. Would highly recommend!

We loved staying at Alison and Marc's place. The house was very comfortable and in such a truly beautiful location by the lake. What made made it very special though was how kind and hospitable Alison and Marc were, over and above what we have experienced before. They were also very quick to respond when we needed help. We had been given all the information in the first place but were having a simple moment and they sorted us out!

Such a relaxing stay. Hot tub was a perfect place to unwind and watch the stars. Very peaceful and private! The place has very thing you need for a comfortable and cozy stay. Would recommend to anyone! We are excited to visit again :)

Lovely place, beautiful views and jetty. Close to Okere Falls cafe for a lovely coffee and food. Would highly recommended

Loved our stay at Nans place! Super homely and comfy!! Very cute!

We had a great stay at this kiwi farmyard cottage. The wooden interior was nice and it was pretty cosy with the heater on. Our host was easy to contact and friendly.
