Great for a large group
Pleasant stay, clean and tidy. Could do with a bit of maintenance and update but was fine for our stay. check in process bit unusual - ph one person day before to confirm, ph 2nd person half hour before arriving so they can physically give you the keys. Lock box would be way Easier! All in all, Happy with our stay. easier!

Whilst the hosts are lovely, unfortunately the property is in need of a great deal of maintenance and does not match the listing description. I have contacted Stayz and the owners and provided details of our concerns.

Lovely Rotorua
This property is big enough to accommodate our large family group without compromising our individual privacy. The kitchen/dining room allowed us enough space and seating to enjoy meals together. The lounge and balcony is the perfect place to relax and plan our adventures together while enjoying the amazing views of Rotorua.

Extended family and friends, participating in Rotorua Marathon Events
Warm, lovely views, beds for everyone. A group of older adults (50+) stayed to participate in the half marathon and 10km events. We were joined by a young family which included a baby a 3 year old and a five year old, plus parents. The young family was self contained in the large bedroom downstairs, but also played nicely in the living area during the day. The older members found plenty of space to relax after their walks/runs, some of us went for a nice wind down walk down the road and through the tree garden. Would totally rebook in the future.

Our Rotorua stay
We enjoyed our stay here. It is difficult to find accomodation for 14 people. Emma was efficient and easy to deal with. The place has amazing views and easy access to attractions. The house is however old, and in need of repairs. E.g the living room roof needs attention, and the bean bags need way more beans. The house is just tired. In saying that we did enjoy our stay and would recommend it to other large families.
