Fantastic Stay in Holden's Bay
What a fantastic place to stay in Rotorua. The location is peaceful and quiet, yet close to everything. The house had everything we needed for our family of 5. The kids loved having a game room and a large yard and the adults enjoyed sunsets from the beach. Highly recommended.

Great Large Family Lake House
This house was amazing! We had 9 of us and the kids all got their own beds, plenty of bathrooms, great kitchen and the best of all, the location! Right on the lake with a sandy beach with kayaks, paddle boards available to use. My kids loved it! Also close to other activities in Rotorua.

Excellent holiday home!
This was a gorgeous property in the most beautiful location. We loved that the lake was on our doorstep. Just note that there are lots of sandflies so sitting outside in the day (or night) can be a bit tricky. James was quick to respond and easy to deal with. Overall a great weekend getaway spot!

Lake House Plus
We toured NZ for 2 weeks and spent 3 nights in the middle of the trip at the house. Unfortunately weather wasn't on our side, but have all the space, games, and great kitchen available meant if we were going to be rained in, we landed in the right spot and had some great family time.

70th Birthday surprise
A great place for our family celebration, allowing for everyone to interact in the fun and games, to make the connection between the birthday girl and the children and grandchildren, times that they will always remember with very fond memories!The location so close to the water allowed for much enjoyment using all the available toys on offer! Kids loved it playing with their grandmother!
