Staying in this beautiful home with this lovely family completely made our trip. Colleen is truly accommodating and extraordinarily helpful. She went above and beyond her role as hostess and was hugely instrumental in squaring away some of our unfinished business for our trip. Her home, while located on a serene and beautiful hillside, is actually quite central to many of the must-do activities the North Island has to offer, including Rotorua, Te Puia, Hobbitton, the Zorb ball, and the Waitomo Caves. Our experience at Rua Resort was a fantastic value and could not have been better.
