We had a wonderful stay! The house is so comfortable and had everything we could want. The garden makes it feel very private. I loved how close we were to the Redwood Forest trails. Highly recommend!

Everything here was wonderful. Great location only like 2 blocks from the Redwoods. Beautifully decorated and comfy.

This is by far one of my all time favorite VRBO accommodations! Such a beautiful home with everything you need to feel right at home. The location is perfect to access all of the surrounding activities and to the downtown area. Kristin was a wonderful host. I’d highly recommend a stay here!

Perfect getaway location with easy access to all that Rotorua has to offer. Wake to the sound of birds chirping in the morning / evening. Best if one has personal vehicle to get to activities but Uber is also an option. Wonderful hosts. Met my every expectation and that of my adult family.
