It was a very lovely and peaceful stay at Steven's place by the lake. We wish we had more time to use his kayaks and really appreciated Steve taking it out for us anyway.
He was extremely friendly and hospitable, providing a lot of great advice for places to visit and even shared the food he made with us.
Steven may also be offering some tour experiences around Rotorua so if you don't have a car or would like a guide to give you more insight and to take you to all the local places, it may be worth asking Steve!
We would definitely recommend Steve's place to anyone visiting Rotorua.
