HAMPSON HEIGHTS
great spot. beautiful view of the stars.

Garden View
Lovely home to stay in within a quiet and safe neighbourhood. Very friendly hosts. Beds were comfortable and the home was clean. Had everything we needed. Even though it is at the back of the host house, it still felt private. We enjoyed our stay and recommend to others.

Modern Home in Rotorua
Excellent place to stay, was clean and homely. Would absolutely stay here again!

The Pink House
We had a great stay at the pink house, felt cosy and had very comfortable beds. Will definitely stay again

Central, parking, breakfast - Mt View Cottage
Thanks for hosting us in your cottage Pat and Mark! The cottage was very clean, tidy, comfortable and peaceful, the large lawn provided plenty of space for the kids to run around, the secure bike storage was ideal and having the kitchen stocked with basics for making breakfast was a great bonus that helped make the mornings go that bit smoother. Will definitely look at staying here again for our next Rotorua trip :-)

Spacious Home away from Home
We stayed here as we were doing some walks and mountain biking around Rotorua, the place was easy to find, easy to get into and suited us perfectly. It was exactly as described and is in a great location for Rotorua activities.

Town & Forest home with garage
Thank you for your hospitality Juliette. Our family loved staying at your place. The kids especially grew very fond of Moka. They were sad to say goodbye to him. As a host Juliette was very friendly and easy to communicate with. She was always just a phone call away and answered all our questions. House was very cosy and comfortable. The backyard / deck area was the best for our three little people who enjoyed kicking the ball around in and riding their bikes. It was completely secured which was a bonus (especially with our wandering two year old) ! Would highly recommend!

Lynmore Views 3 bedroom family home
Great location, taking part in the Tarawera Ultra and the accommodation was perfect

Jandals & Joy Lakefront Retreat
Beautiful/quiet location with lake front. My nephew & his friend were enjoy playing in the yard & lake. Comfortable beds.

Quiet Oasis. Private, peaceful.
great place to stay and great hosts! perfect sized space for our family of 4. we loved having the BBQ and felt like the kitchen was well stocked. the house was a perfect base camp for our excursions. would def stay here again.

Awa Homestead Lodge Spa Pool Log Fire
We used Joss and Wayne's place for a team building retreat. It was perfect. Plenty of bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen for our self-catering, beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Joss and Wayne were great hosts - showed us where everything was and then left us to it. As well as the great kitchen, there was also a lovely outside area with a BBQ for relaxing at night. Great venue. Would highly recommend.

~ the hunting huts~ a fresh take on the kiwi bach
The view from Glenn's place really sold it for us. The fact you cannot really see any other dwellings and just the mountain and lake in all their awe is very special indeed. We would have appreciated some outdoor lounging/beanbag type furniture to truly appreciate the view and a safer way to access the hot tub (the ladder has to be carefully stabilised to climb safely) but did not at all detract.

Upscale Comfort in the Heart of Rotorua with Spa!
Dear Dharmen, Thank you for hosting us in your resplendent & spectacular home. The impeccable upkeep clearly reflects the sincere, laborious efforts you’ve put into maintaining it. We were truly mesmerised by the meticulous attention to detail & the thoughtful care you took to make our stay as comfortable & exclusive as possible. The premium quality of every appliance in your home was remarkable—something quite rare to find. Having travelled the world, we have never encountered a host so dedicated to personally explaining every aspect of the property. Your prompt visit the next morning to address even the smallest of our concerns was a testament to your extraordinary hospitality. Your Warmth, Cheerful Demeanour & ever - helpful Attitude made our stay Truly Special. Once again, thank you for the privilege & honour of experiencing your Beautiful & Magnificent Home. We shall cherish the Sweet & Fond Memories of our stay at your home for years to come. May God bless you & your Family.

House rentals with a pool

AristaAir- 'Poppies Luxury Villa'
This was another great stay for my family at Mike & Annemaries's. Loved the pool again for family and great location and plenty of space for family. Great that there was a lot of towels. House was perfect and we always enjoy staying here for a short vacay.

Kea Chalet Villa, 3 bedroom
We had another great stay at this resort. We have stayed in other places managed by Nerida before. This three bedder is maybe getting a little tired decor wise… so just now that it is a Kiwi bach experience that your getting in a great location. Will definitely be keen to come again.

(3) Friendly Pan Home
We enjoyed our stay at Peter and Betty’s. The pool was lovely and the beds were comfortable. Google maps guided us down a nearby street instead, but the instructions from the host were accurate and fixed the problem. Peter was very responsive when we had any questions. Would stay again

Big house, Quiet yet Close to City Centre, Rotorua
Great host, excellent house & great location. We stayed for New Years and could see the fireworks over the city. House and pool both clean and lovely.

Rotorua Paradise,heated pool,2×65" TVs,now 30% off
our family was so in love with this place. it had everything we needed. private yet close enough to the centre of town the place is definitely for families, as we knew that this place is loved and taken care of. we picked this place because it is a older home, so we didn't have anxiety about staying here! the pool was a bonus! which I appreciated it being heated but also not a spa pool. simply the water was warm enough to not shiver!

GEOTHERMAL INN CBD
Jonathan’s house is very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with anything you need. The lounge and dining areas are spacious and comfortable as are the bedrooms and beds. Nice outdoor garden with a lovely warm hot tub. Very much appreciated especially on a cold wet Rotorua day. The house is close to the shops, cafes, restaurants, groceries etc. Some interesting sightseeing areas are within walking distance from the property. We enjoyed our stay.

Garden Paradise in Rotorua (with swimming pool)
We had a fantastic weekend in Rotorua for our mother’s/Grandmothers 76th birthday. Jessie’s place was perfect for our family of 9 adults, very roomy and had everything that we needed, comfortable and clean, would definitely recommend.

*Group accommodation*- The Retreat @ Lakes Ranch
had a wonderful time. the facilities on offer were so much fun and great for a large group. they were very flexible with the chaos of organizing many people and the changes we requested.
