We had read the reviews before our stay and thought that this place had a lot to live up to! But it does. It’s a lovely location in a hidden gem of a location. Easy to access Rotorua. We did the Buried Maori Village and Redwood Tree Walk on day 1 and then Rotorua Geothermal walk and circular Blue Lake Walk on Day 2. Blue Lake walk I found disappointing as you can’t see the lake as you walk. The board walk is however beautiful. Andrew’s place is perfect for a couple. It seems newly set up, with all new facilities and furniture. No compromises. They have thought of everything. Towels and sun cream if you want a swim in the lake. All in all a fabulous BnB.
