Studio Flat Handy Location
Great stay, has everything you need :)

Te Miro Lakeside Cottage. Lake Tarawera. Rotorua.
As a group of 5 girlfriends we couldn’t have chosen a better place for our weekend away. We loved the cosy house it was nice and warm , beds comfy and had everything we needed . The location was amazing with access to a private lakefront spot. Ngaire was a fabulous super host so helpful and going extra mile for us to ensure we had a lovely stay. Can’t recommend enough and would love to comeback in summer !

Cherry Tree Cottage - Hamurana
Jerry's place was awesome nice and cozy good spot for the dog to run around clean and tidy and the water was so good. Jerry was really nice and friendly easy to talk to and very responsive. Even had some nice eggs from the chickens

Family Friendly Rotorua
I’m not sure what the past reviews are talking about because this place was absolutely great and worth every cent that we paid. The house had everything and more that is usually provided in an Air BnB, I was even able to bake some brownies with all the kitchen utilities that are available. Immaculately clean, the bed in the room was super comfy and my sons enjoyed their sleeps on the bottom bunk and sofa bed in the lounge. The place was absolutely perfect for what we were after and the backyard is awesome for little ones. Although the Air BnB is the bottom floor of the host’s house, it is so private and you hardly even hear any noise above. Thank you Lorna and Aaron for a wonderful stay. We will definitely be returning to you if needed again in the future.

Idyllic Rotorua Haven: Kōtare Cottage
We had a great stay at Terry & Millie's place. The accommodation was very cosy and warm considering the outside temperatures and the bed was so comfortable. We liked the accommodation being a little outside the main town as it was quiet and peaceful. All amenities were provided for us to be able to cook breakfast, lunch & dinner - having an air fryer & dishwasher were added bonuses. Lastly, Roxy was such a beautifully natured dog that our daughter loved having around to give pats to. Would definitely stay here again if we were to return to Rotorua.

Spacious 2 brm Unit (newly carpeted)
We had a great stay, perfect for my son and me on a boys' mountain bike trip. It was nice being walking distance to town for dinner. The hot pool was a bonus.

Home Away From Home At Hector
Very responsive, kind and had a lovely home in a beautiful location. It was close to everything we wanted to visit.

Authentic Kiwi Lodge by the Lake/Kayaks & Fishing
This place is perfect for a family. The hosts are welcoming and accommodating, and fast to respond. When we needed something, they immediately brought it by. The location is perfect. Very quiet with a beautiful beach walk located right out front. Highly recommend this place and these hosts.

Loved Guest Space
Phil's place had all we needed for our stay. We were here due to a big event taking place around the area of Neil Hunt Park and Redwood Forest, so it was a great location for us since we could easily walk back and forth between the event and our accommodation. Phil was really nice and accommodating, and picked us up in the city center when we arrived by bus. Initially we had misunderstood the amenities listed and thought that there was pots, pans and a stove top in the kitchenette, but Phil was kind enough to offer us to use his kitchen (although we never needed it because the weekend was so busy that we never had time to cook). We wished we could've stayed longer because this AirBnB was really nice! So cozy, Phil was so friendly and kind and the area was very peaceful and relaxing - something we would've wanted to take advantage of more. Really recommend staying here!

Lakefront guest house
Oh WOW! This place was so special. Homely, relaxed, lovely linen and furnishings. Loads of room for lawn cricket with the kids and long summer clothes evenings lakeside with a wine. Wonderful little bay that felt like stepping back in time to what bach life at the lake was and still should be. A short boat ride to the hot pools and directly opposite Honeymoon Bay for rock jumping. An excellent ramp to tie up our boat.

Monarch Cottage | cosy, convenient, self-contained
Wonderful stay! Lora kept a lamp on inside as she knew we were getting in later that night, and the small things like that made us feel right at home! Nice place and a close drive to all the things to do around Rotorua :)
