    I recently had the pleasure of staying at this holiday home in Rotorua, located just a short distance from the famous Skyline attraction. This two bedroom home was the perfect base for my family's holiday and I couldn't have been more impressed. First of all, the location was ideal. We were able to walk to the Skyline in just a few minutes, making it easy to visit multiple times during our stay. The home was also close to many other popular attractions in Rotorua, such as the Redwoods forest and the Polynesian Spa.

    We came here as our holiday home accomadation we'd booked several months before let us down. Within moments of walking in the reception we knew we'd have a nice stay. The rooms were great, the reveptiom and house keeping staff went to great lengths to be welcoming and friendly. The Christmas decorations throughout were beautiful. The bar had a lovely ski lodge feel to it. The bar staff were also lovely. The free laundry was really helpful. A magical Christmas stay, and we would love to come back!

    The holiday home has three bedrooms, more than enough for our family of 3. I think the photos don’t do justice to its actual perfection: great view, serenity of countryside, comfortable living area and convenience of facilities for travelers . I forgot some personal items and the good owner agreed to courier them to me. Too bad I didn’t check messages in time.

    Leigh and Mike went over and above to make our stay feel completely perfect. No detail was spared. If you like the finer things in life, with comfort and a relaxed atmosphere, you’ll love it here. It’s also a very beautiful, very peaceful location that is not too far out of town. The nearby lakes, walks and other attractions (such as The Buried Village) are all fabulous. A superb quality base for visiting Rotorua and surrounds, if you have a car.
