Loved our stay at Stephen & Etty’s place. Just as described, it is right on Lake Rotorua, with a lovely garden and kayaks that guests can use (and we did!). Unit 1 (retro cottage) was charming, clean and had everything we needed. Good kitchen, bathroom and 2 decent bedrooms (one is also the lounge, so perhaps suits a family or close friends best). Excellent communication and welcome from our hosts, with lots of ideas and local knowledge for what to do in and around Rotorua.
