10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (4)
"We weren't quite sure what to expect, as we are not normally into the glamping style of accommodation. But we loved every bit of what this place had to offer. Peaceful, no TV, surrounded by nature, over looking lake, fishing rod, kayaks, BBQ, selection of fresh produce on arrival, no neighbours anywhere close, what more could you want for serious downtime. Being a bus it has 'bus' sized amenities so you have to be prepared for that. Having said that it had a full sized very comfortable bed. Also...

They made sure we knew all about the property and even offered ideas on things to do in the local area. Their little space was perfect for our busy travel itinerary in the bay of plenty. Comfortable, and location was central to all our adventures. We are already planning our return trip. Looking forward to staying here again!"

4.0 star property
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (9)
"The property was conveniently located for all of our plans in and around Rotorua. Unfortunately, the AC broke right before our stay, which was not communicated to us. We had to contact the owner because we were unable to turn the AC on, which was when we found out it was broken. In addition, the parking situation was tricky - either a VERY tight driveway, or a big dropoff to a gravel spot. Not great when driving a rental car!"
