Amazing. Everything was just perfect. Best night sleep in New Zealand. Super friendly and located close enough to walk to everything you need. Also the birds are one of the best parts for us.

Lovely neighbourhood, great host

The long-standing and very-much-continuing Maori presence around the geothermal area here is magical, and this upstairs cottage rental unit is part of it. The host, Paora was very friendly.

Well positioned, charming apartment

We had three adults and were very comfortable. Short walk to main shopping area. Quiet location at night. Sliding door was a little temperamental and sides steps posed a challenge with large baggage but otherwise a lovely apartment.

Great location

Nice and quiet, with great outlook. Good cafe and bakery nearby on Lake Road. Steep stairs up on the outside are a bit daunting for older folk, so this property unsuitable if you have mobility issues. Also the loose post at the top is a danger and must be fixed ASAP.
