Lakefront Tarawera Bliss
We had an amazing few days at the most beautiful location and house! The hosts were very accommodating and helpful with all requests. The house was beautiful and fitted our three families perfectly. The location couldn't be better, and the kids loved riding their bikes out front and walk down to the playground. We loved being able to swim right at the doorstep and jump on the boat with ease. An amazing place!

Central Stay Rotorua- MTB/City/Lake
Amazing stay. Had a beautiful dinner and the restaurant across the road. Super comfy beds and lovely and clean. Thanks so much made our stay so much better.

Te Tuhunga
A lovely place to stay with a great view

Southstar Evergreen Beautiful new large home.

Adventure at Lake Okareka
Really enjoyed the stay! Cool house and great location. Felt like home. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay again.

Mediterranean Retreat
Absolutely stunning home and perfect for my extended family visiting from Canada and my kids. I would love to live in this house full time it was so comfortable. Thanks Samantha and Kieran

Comfortable Home, Big Backyard
Nelson and Natalie’s place is super kid friendly, even for little ones as it’s safe and private and lots of space in the yard for them to run around. The hosts are friendly and have all the information you need to know about the accommodation displayed inside the home making our stay easy. There’s no photos of the kitchen listed but it’s got everything you need. I especially enjoyed the coffee machine in the mornings. I think there should be more photos up of this place because we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Thanks for having us :)

Family Adventure Get Away
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House had everything we needed in a quiet suburb only a few minutes drive into town. Supermarket and some takeaway restaurants only a couple of minutes drive away. Highly recommend for a family stay.

The Blue Bliss - Sunny Studio
The unit was exceptionally tidy. After checking in, I needed to step out briefly, and upon my return, I found the lights and heating system already activated. The room was comfortably warm. That thoughtful touch was greatly appreciated and made me feel quite welcome.

Contemporary Lakeside House with Panoramic Views
My friends & I had a marvellous stay. The place was perfect, great views & peaceful surroundings. It was lovely being on the deck, watching the birds & looking out onto Lake Rotoiti. We were there for mountains biking & paddleboarding on the lake. It is 20mins to the mtbike tracks. The instructions & local recommendations were great. If you want a peaceful stay in a fantastic location then this is the place to be. Many thanks to the owner :-)

BnB on Bidois
Very convenient location, host is easy to communicate with and friendly, almost everything that you could need is in the bnb already, the house is very cosy and so worth for its price.

Lakes or Redwood Forest....you choose
The home and location were great and the home had the space for our family of 8. The dining area was crowded for our crew and we had to find more chairs in the garage so everyone could sit. Overall though It was comfortable. The home is aging, but functional. The backyard was not very inviting, but the front yard felt safe. The little tree swing in front was a nice touch that my kids loved.

Your Redwoods forest sanctuary
Perfect location to enjoy all that Rotorua has to offer. We rode our mountain bikes right from the house into the spectacular Whakarewarewa forest. Having access to the garage was very helpful to store and care for our bikes. The house is large and spacious with every amenity we needed. Many great restaurants and shops were a short drive into the center of town. Kate was a great host, we enjoyed our stay very much!

Rotoiti Lakeside Cottages
Dan's place is just a piece of paradise! Right in front of the lake, with private jetty and private ramp, away from the main road, totally safe for children. Highly recommend! Dan is very responsive and welcoming, makes you feel like home. Looking forward to return again!

Whare Rakau - The Tree House
We stayed for a week and woke up every morning amazed by the view! The home was exactly what we needed, however, the pictures don't do it justice. Wonderfully clean & tidy and had everything you need. Very private and surrounded by bush. Will definitely be coming back!

Cosy and warm 2brm house walking distance to CBD.
Suzanne’s place is private and well-equipped (and with very comfortable beds!) but within walking distance to restaurants, shops and the lakefront. There is also a great playground around the corner for this with little kids. Highly recommend to others traveling through Rotorua and would happily stay here again. Thank you for having us.
Pet-friendly home rentals with a hot tub

The Bunker
We had such a lovely stay here! Enjoyed the entire place especially the games’s room. The place had everything we needed and the hosts were so friendly and helpful. Would 100%% recommend and come back again.

Perfect family getaway
Tamson’s place was perfect for our family (parents, with adult children, their partners, plus dogs). Beautiful big home with space and privacy for everyone. Areas to swim, walk, run or bike around different lakes, private spa to relax in afterwards. Close enough to Rotorua for shopping, but out in beautiful nature and so peaceful. Highly recommend Tamson’s place!

Room with a View! Lake Okareka Rotorua, Spa & BBQ
Breathtaking view from the patio space. Definitely worth getting in early enough to enjoy the scenic outlook. Morning was lovely

Ridge Retreat - Luxury Cabin with 2 Outdoor Baths
This was the perfect little retreat for us to unwind and relax! We loved all the little touches that made us feel right at home, they had set the fire up all ready for roasting marshmallows, there was a fantastic selection of tea, and we appreciated the eggs and avocados! The bed was insanely comfortable and the addition of the robes was such a nice touch. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Arias Farm Cottage for family/groups (check Cabin)
The most caring host I’ve ever dealt with on Airbnb, very understanding and kind, this will be the only place I’ll come back to stay at when I’m back with my family in Rotorua, next time my wife will do all the booking ;) lol

Studio Two @ Lakes Ranch
This might sound like a bad review but it is not meant as such. It's so future guests aren't surprised. We enjoyed our stay here immensely. The chalet was perfect for a couple. Nice comfy firm bed, good kitchenette and ensuite. The chalet is on the grounds of a Christian camp facility for horse riding. The grounds are expansive. There's a small lake with kayaks for use. There's a pool with cool water and a very warm open air spa. The grounds themselves are lovely but the pool area needs some aesthetic tidying. The pools are clean and good - they just need their floors painted. They're also amongst what seems to be a semi abandoned construction area. But get past that superficial stuff, the pools are fine for purpose. A dawn spa was delightful. The grounds themselves seem to have 500 unfinished DIY projects on the go. The roads around the facility seem to have been through an artillery barrage so if you have a very low profile car, be wary. Despite the above we LOVED staying here. It was hot weather when we stayed and the room was very warm. In fact it could use a plug-in fan to circulate the air a bit. I totally recommend staying here and when I come back to Rotorua I'd definitely stay here again.

Back Yard Retreat
Dave is a wonderful host and went above and beyond to ensure we had what we needed during our stay. The cabin is cosy and well appointed and in a beautiful sunny and peaceful location. Our dogs loved the space and especially enjoyed meeting Dave's own dog (and they are very sorry about the destroyed toy!). Highly recommend this place to anyone traveling with their 4 legged friend. We will definitely be back again.
