We loved the upstairs living room, it was very spacious and comfortable. It’s got a lot of space. This would be a great home for a group or family with kids. The house is a little older and there were more spiders and cobwebs hanging around than I would have liked. Overall we had a comfortable stay and it was easy to drive to some of Rotorua’s main attractions.

House is located behind a school and in walking distance to a shopping complex. The attraction of having the "MOTIONS" entertainment centre that close meant our 11year old and 15year old were fully entertained. The house is very clean with open spaces where we could practice our cultural items in preparation for our show. The Host was very informative and easy to communicate with. We highly recommend staying here for those with families. The forest is very close for those wanting a bit of adventure too. We will definitely return!
