    We liked everything about Tikitere Lodge.

    A wonderful place to stay, very friendly welcome, the most comfortable beds and log fire. Great for a group of friends or family, sparkling lake behind the property, amazing kayaking and treks near by. Only 15 mins from Rotorua. Anne is a great host and we’re looking forward to retuning for a wonderful lamb roast .

    Basic tea and coffee was included. But be mindful that no breakfast provisions were provided. However they were available for purchase.

    Luxurious accommodation with very comfortable beds and thick towels. Excellent communication and very helpful hosts.

    There is nothing not to like!

    It was beautifully clean and great layout, attention to detail with insect nets on the windows was superb especially when you need the night air for a great nights sleep in the summer, plus private lake beach access. A great location for rotorua access without having to be in the centre. The hosts were fabulous too!

    Nothing.

    Everything. Beautiful and cozy house in a beautiful location. Big rooms along with ensuite in each room. Heaps of place for kids in the backyard to play along with swings and trampoline. Private access to lake , free kayaks. The beds, linen, kitchen equipments, furnishing, everything was top notch. Free BBQ and hot tub to relax. On top of it Anne was lovely and her family were really nice and hospitable. They made us feel very comfortable. Thank you. Looking forward to bring my other family members here next time we’re in Rotorua.

    The stay couldn't have gone any better, there is nothing to dislike.

    Most of the time interactions with the host can make a stay better, not enough can be said for how wonderful the family having us were. Very welcoming and helpful, and above all expectations with the accommodation! Their knowledge of local shops and tourism around the area made our stay extra wonderful.

    There is nothing not to like about this property and the owners.

    We received the warmest welcome as the owners are wonderful and committed to making our stay exceptional. The location was perfect. I wish we had more time to enjoy the house and surrounding yard activities! The ability to do laundry was so helpful and essential to that point in our trip. We would stay here again over and over!

    Nothing - it was all good! Pity about the terrible weather :)

    Hosts Anne and Matt were very welcoming and helpful. The beds were luxurious and very comfortable with quality bedding. There were many other thoughtful touches throughout the house, such as cosy rugs on the lounge, toiletries provided, and even a herb and spice rack in the kitchen. Each bedroom had its own ensuite. Probably the most comfortable lounge ever.
