We wanted to be close to the Redwood Forest so that we could walk and mountain bike daily. The house was in a great location to do exactly that and to sight see further afield in Rotorua. This was a home away from home, very comfortable and relaxing for us to return to at the end of each day. Our hosts Chloe and Andy were warm and welcoming and readily available if we needed them for anything (we didn't). We were two couples from Australia and the house suited our needs ie; two bathrooms, separate bedrooms as well as a large living space, washing machine and a practical kitchen. The wifi was quick and responsive. We would highly recommend this house and the hosts.
