Gemini Lodge is what Airbnb is all about: offering an experience that you simply wouldn't get in a hotel. The location is on Lake Rotorua is perfect and the views peaceful and spectacular. The lodge itself is immaculate and full of cosy character - there's everything you need for your stay comfy beds, great tv, shower, washing machine and dryer, well-equipped kitchen and plenty of thoughtful touches like chocolate, wine and crisps and a fully stocked coffee machine that were all appreciated. We loved the large spa pool and taking the kayak out on the lake early in the morning has been a highlight of our holiday. We allocated 2 days of our NZ holiday to Rotorua only wish we'd stayed longer both for the number and variety of things to do in the town itself and the beauty of the lodge itself.
Joe and Cynthia are fantastic and attentive hosts - you couldn't ask for anything more. Like other reviewers have said, if you're thinking about booking here don't hesitate.
