Rotorua vibes 🌄

Room was massive and clean, with a lekker kitchenette for whipping up meals. Loved the big shower! Plus, the spa bath was the cherry on top after long days exploring. Very chill atmosphere, perfect for relaxing!

Had some noise from the logging trucks in the morning, but it wasn't a major issue.

Nice

6.0

There was no air conditioning, which could make hot nights a bit uncomfortable. I also noticed some bathroom fittings showing signs of wear from the geothermal atmosphere, and the noise from the neighboring logging truck parking area might be an issue during the week. Plus, there were a couple of incidents with hot water. we had none upon arrival and had to deal with some timing quirks with the spa bath. The mention of flying insects was slightly concerning, though the place held up otherwise.

Had an awesome stay with friends! We loved the spacious room with a functional kitchenette, which made cooking meals easy. Enjoyed a lovely breakfast with fresh fruit and cake. The quiet location was perfect after a full day of adventures, like zip-lining and geothermal spa relaxation.

The room lacked air-conditioning, making warmer nights slightly uncomfortable.

logging truck noise

I had a super comfy stay in the Studio with Private Spa Bath. The room was clean and spacious, which was great for a solo traveler like me. They provided electric fans to keep cool since there’s no AC, which really helped! Plus, the bathroom was nice and big with a spa bath, perfect for relaxing after a long day. The WiFi was excellent too! Just a bit of noise from nearby logging trucks in the morning, but it wasn't too bothersome.
