Tihiotonga being the highest residential area in Rotorua, the decks provide stunning uninterrupted views over Lake Rotorua and the City.
WIFI and HD TV with Netflix room to watch your favourite movies or keep the kids entertained on those rainy days.
Large master bedroom with private deck overlooking the farmland behind.

Linen (Bedsheets, pillowcases, and towels) are an optional extra at this property and can be ordered at additional cost of $35 per person.

4.0 / 5.0
The house was well appointed and suited our needs. We had trouble getting the heat-pump to blow warm air so we resorted to using the double log fireplace for heat.
We did use a a heater from downstairs and brought it up to the lounge but when we plugged it in some weird notices were being emitted. And you could see that there were scorch marks on the top of the fins. So we left this in the main entrance for repair. The place was cold but the fireplace once working solved this issue.

6 night stay with 5 large adults and lots of running gear. The house provides loads of room and would’ve comfortably fitted more.
The house was generally clean, showers and toilets were both clean.
Fantastic views across the bay and mountains and only a short 5k drive to the Rotorua town centre.
Check in was easy and communications too.
Would stay again.

We were a group of 9 and the house was perfect for us. Enjoyed relaxing environment, big lounge and modern & well stocked kitchen. Only 7-10mins drive from town center. This house was great for big family.

Previous guests had done something with fish and the house and outside bin absolutely stunk. Owner of house is storing his boat in garage which we were not aware of. Overall great stay though
4.0 / 5.0
1. Toiletries should be provided or clearly defined at the booking stage that they would not be provided.
2. Shower mixer in the upper floor batrhroom needs checking. It is difficult to uniformly set it at the desired water temperature. Either it is too hot or cold.
2.0 / 5.0
There were no tea towels. The bath needed cleaning before use. It is not very clear on bookabatch site that no towels, bathmats, or sheets or pillow cases are supplied. AT the price per night they should be supplied. We had to go and buy towels and sheets etc for 2 adults and 5 children. We have stayed at other places (at similar prices) where all is supplied.
It not obvious on the bookabatch site that you need to bring your own linen. The cleaner they have misses a lot of areas for instance when I went out onto bbq deck got hit by cobwebs on the inside of the house. There are many areas where there have been serious water leaks. When we entered there were dead insects on kitchen floor. Very over priced!

Travelled to Rotorua with family, 3 adults over 60 and 3 of us in our 40s. Property exceeded our expectations. Lots of space for everybody, our parents felt like it was home away from home. Travelling to town was easy. I would definitely look at this property if you’re a similar travelling group. Made our weekend away that much better. Thanks team much appreciated

I was in the group of 7 golfers who rented this property last weekend. I just wanted to say thank you for the property - it was in excellent condition, very clean and homely, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We left it as we found it, and we look forward to renting it again or renting a similar property for our next golf road trip. Also a special thank you to Fiona Brown who was very prompt and responsive to a query we had and provided all the information we sought.

We recently had a trip to rotorua to enjoy the sights, the weather wasn’t great but we got out in the rain anyway. It was so good to come back to a home with great heating options available. The heat pump &, fireplace had us all warmed up and dried out for the next adventure! Plenty of space for the kids and great facilities,( a few hand towels/tea towels would have been handy). Thanks for the great winter get away.

A lovey spot over Rotorua
From contact with housekeeper Fiona (who was quickly responsive, friendly, and accomodating) to accessing the property, everything about this stay was seamless and easy. The kitchen was very well stocked in terms of staples as well as equipment, dishes, tools, etc. The house was very clean and tidy. We especially appreciated the heat pads on the beds and the potbellied stove prestocked such that all we needed to do was light a match and voila!
The views over the city and the lake from the front were breath taking, and overlooking the countryside from the bedrooms was so peaceful. Plenty of room for parking and super close to the attractions we were wanting to access. We all enjoyed very much!

Our family of 8 really enjoyed our stay at the property. It was big enough to accommodate all of us comfortably. The view was awesome!We did have a few concerns about some aspects of cleanliness and we would not be able to use the downstairs area in the winter season. However for our stay during summer, it was great.
