The location suited us no problem as we were late booking for an event weekend in Rotorua. Only takes 10 minutes to get into town even though property is located near the outskirts . Nice quiet suburban neighbourhood. Close to Te Puia , and easy to get around everywhere. Down a long driveway so off the road.

    The lodge is situated right on the shore of the lake, with a little private peer to bask in the natural beauty of the surroundings. What's more, there is a hot tub and a sauna on the peer, allowing for wonderful relaxation by the lakeside, especially in the evenings. The lodge itself is set up in a very cozy and warm way, making the overall stay very relaxing. Definitely worth the price.

    The location was central and easy to get to everything. The rooms were perfectly clean and tidy, very warm and cosy from the heating, and having the hot tub was a bonus. The owners and staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. All in all a 10 out of 10 for service, cleanliness, location and overall experience.
