We had a wonderful two-night stay here and were impressed by how convenient and welcoming everything was. The location is fantastic—right in the heart of Rotorua, close to shops, attractions, and dining, yet quiet and peaceful at night. The room was spotless, spacious, and had all the essentials we needed, including a well-equipped kitchenette which made it easy to prepare small meals or enjoy a hot drink. A thoughtful touch was receiving a bottle of milk at check-in for a cuppa after a long drive. The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Parking was easy, and check-in was smooth and efficient. This is a great base for exploring Rotorua and relaxing in between adventures. We would definitely stay here again if we're back in Rotorua in the future.

we loved everything, e g the presence of a pool and barbecue, but especially we loved the extra caring details. The bottle of sun screen by the pool, the bottles of full milk in the fridge, the herbs planted by the barbecue and hangi, the opportunitity to do your own HANGI, the mineral hot pools, the welcome package, the generous pool and spa opening hours, the ECO awareness…. Most of all the wonderful staff and their tips about places to visit and things to do.

Excellent value for money, very comfortable rooms and friendly staff. They left us a bottle of wine to congratulate us on our honeymoon which was a lovely touch. It’s very cold there right now and the rooms were warm and cosy. Great location right by the lake and local restaurants.

We initially booked one of the small and older units, however on arrival we noticed one of the larger more modern cabins were available and arranged to upgrade (at cost). The staff were very accommodating and new room was fabulous. Very spacious with full kitchen facilities. Large lounge and dining. Separate bedrooms. Beautiful view of the gardens and surrounds. The park was lovely with great facilities. It is a slightly older park but had everything we needed. Kids loved the heated pool and the thermal spas were very relaxing.
