There's not enough stars to rate our amazing experience in this tiny home. If it was up to me I would rate Kylie and Ricky an entire galaxy if I can. I visited with my family over the weekend and the first thing that the kids said was "we could live in this forever". Everything was so clean, so tastefully decorated and so homey - we instantly forgot we were far away from home. Communication was stellar form the get go and the welcome we got felt like reuniting with a loved one after a long time. We also go to meet her dog Maggie, the whippet, an absolute treat after hours of driving. If I could commit one crime in this lifetime, it'll be to kidnap her. Maybe joking, maybe not.
Everything is so close and just a few minutes drive away but the tiny home is still nicely tucked away in a lovely and quiet neighbourhood, perfect for a good night's sleep. We felt very safe and despite the tiny home being just behind the main house, we still felt we had been given a lot of privacy. The space itself isn't THAT tiny, our kids are almost adult size and we hardly ever felt cramped or claustrophobic, everything was just super cozy and chill. Everything you need is there, if it's not, Kylie gives off the vibe that she'll sort it out straight away.
The spa - you'd be nuts to book this place without trying it. I'll leave it at that.
We came to visit Rotorua to give the kids a vacation to remember. We didn't want it to be another touristy weekend that everyone goes to and forgets after a little while. Kylie had the perfect recommendations for us for both daytime and night time activities. Not only were her suggestions memorable, but they were meaningful to us in more ways than one. (Facing our fears, conserving our forests, learning experience for the kids). Also her lists of places to eat and menu to try out just happen to be up my alley!
Thank you Kylie for being the best host! You are more than just a superhost, you are a beautiful human being that we all should emulate. Until our next visit!
