About this property

Lake Rotoiti Views, Tikitere - Stunning Lake Views

Welcome to Lake Rotoiti Views, a sun soaked holiday home with sensational lake views. It is the perfect holiday destination for couples or a group of friends or family to enjoy and make the most of the lake and local activities.

PLEASE NOTE: We have a temporary issue with access to the jetty - There is currently no access to the lake and Jetty via the stairs from the front lawn. There is however a private boat ramp 500 meters down the road for guests and residents to use where you can access the lake, swim, launch your boat and kayaks.

The holiday home offers

• Sun soaked open plan kitchen/ dining and living area
• Indoor - outdoor flow onto a spacious deck
• Master bedroom with en-suite and lake views.
• Log burner and fire wood for cool winter nights.
• Plenty of parking for cars and boats.

Boating access is easy with a boat launching ramp 2 minutes from the house. See note above about access to the beach and jetty - temporarily unavailable.

A great base to explore the many activities Rotoiti has to offer including water sports, fishing, bathing at the Manupirua Thermal Springs (5 minutes by boat), and Okere Falls cafe.

Rotorua airport is 15 minutes and the center of town is 20 minutes by car.

Great Location

The property is in a beautiful location on the edge of the lake. It is well proportioned and fitted our group of 6 easily. Unfortunately, it could do with a good clean. We had to contact the managers when we arrived due to an issue with the alarm. The communication was excellent and the problem sorted quickly, which we were very grateful for.

We loved our stay, this was the perfect home for our extended family holiday of 4 adults and 4 kids, beautiful view and great spaces to be in. Loved having use of the kayak and plenty of life jackets in a variety of sizes made life easy. Will definitely stay again!

Great location

Great location, clean, great views, spacious & very quiet and private. We had 8 people and fit comfortably. Good cooking facilities too. Had kayaks to use, however had to get them down to the boat ramp so you’ll need roof racks or something similar. A shame the jetty hasn’t been fixed as we had to drive to the boat ramp to swim. And a few maintenance issues but Russell was relatively easy to contact. Would stay here again just if the jetty was fixed! :) an umbrella for the outside table would also be great.

Great location

Good size home for our family of 9, shame the weather wasn’t good to explore the area and swim in the lake. Few things that were missing, which said would be at the house, no soap for the showers, no handy towels in the kitchen, no rubbish bags, 2 tea towels for a four day stay…not a big deal, we would have taken these things if we had known they would not be at the house . No animals aloud… carpet smelt like dog. Just small things, great house and location we had a great Christmas.

Family Holiday

We adored the Bach's location—it was perfect! The rooms were spacious, which was great. However, a larger TV and better maintenance would be beneficial. Communication was prompt, which was appreciated. Overall, our family from South Africa thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Stunning spot

Loved the location all as described in the listing. Sadly the property is let down by a lack of maintenance. This is the only reason I didn’t give 5 stars. The exterior is covered in spiderwebs and mould, all the cedar cladding is looking pretty worse for wear. Inside all the ceilings have spiderwebs and while the general cleanliness was good it was pretty disappointing to see such a lovely house not looked after. The check in process is simple and the owner was accommodating with good communication via txt. To our surprise there is an awesome arcade system which kept our kids entertained for hours as well lots of media and games to use. Some awesome bush walks around the property too. Boat ramp is very close but sadly with the lake access from the house via stairs not available after the cyclone you can’t leave your boat in the lake. Overall though a beautiful spot to stay.

Beautiful stay

Property is away from the city. First time visitor's would need to drive to the city might take some time for travel. But for the people who have already been to rotorua they would know what exactly they want to do and if they want a big house and quite space, this is the perfect location. We simply loved the stay. House is beautiful and specious and beds are comfortable. We went in winter but summer in this house will be amazing. Beautiful views from the house. Heating facilities are great. I will definatly visit again.

Great family house

Pros: Lovely views. Well set up kitchen. Lovely and warm with the fire going. Loved the games console. Things to note: Road to the house is in poor condition at the moment. Only one shower at a time is advisable so that the water temperature is not affected. Laundry shoot in top bathroom is blocked at the bottom, don’t use.

Magical Winter Getaway!

We loved staying in this bach! Had everything we needed. The space invaders machine got a lot of use (when we weren't out and about in RotoVegas doing the touristy activities)! Ours boys had a room each to themselves. The view over the lake was amazing. The wood burner was stoked up each night to heat up the living area and the upstairs bedrooms. The info booklet was very thorough and we were inspired to go for a walk up to the little heated stream. The kitchen really was fully equipped - could cater for so many people! Every room was clean and tidy. Comfy beds and plenty of blankets (even had oil heaters in the bedrooms). We are definitely keen to visit in the summer time - the indoor / outdoor flow is perfect for bbq's and drinks on the deck. And when the stairs to the jetty are fixed it'd be awesome to take the kayaks down for a paddle. Thank you so much to the hosts for sharing their special piece of paradise!

About the host

Hosted by Russell Malone

Host profile image
We've set the property up so that other people can enjoy the Lake Views experience too.

Why they chose this property

We were looking for a holiday home where we could entertain friends and family and were introduced to the area by friends. We immediately fell in love with the lake and the secluded location.
The views from the property are stunning and the access to the water and surrounding means there is never a shortage of things to do.

What makes this property unique

Perhaps the best feature is access to so many activities in the immediate area. Exploring, water skiing, biscuiting, boating, hot pools, fishing, kayaking or just bathing.

The area around the house is surrounded by a pine forest which is great for walking, jogging, and mountain biking. The tracks wind their way through quiet pine forest and have great views of the lake.
